Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: $250. Meet Milo: From Fragile to Fabulous When Milo arrived at TFP, he was underweight, heartworm positive, battling resistant hookworms, and unsure of everything—including toys. But thanks to a loving foster home, regular meals, and consistent medical care, Milo has made a remarkable transformation. Today, he’s parasite-free, heartworm-negative, neutered, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and thriving at a healthy weight. Gone is the timid pup who didn’t know how to play. Milo now joyfully raids the toy box for his favorite chew bones and greets each day with a zest for life. He’s got excellent leash manners (Gentle Leader trained!) and would love to be your walking buddy or fitness motivator. Milo is a dream in the home—housebroken and a quiet angel in the crate. He rides beautifully in the car and makes a calm, curious travel companion. While he may take a moment to warm up to new people, once you’re in his circle, he’s a loyal cuddle bug who lives for gentle affection and your attention. Milo's Ideal Match: Milo thrives in a home with at least one confident, friendly dog to show him the ropes and share in the fun. He’s looking for a family who understands the beauty of second chances and is ready for endless snuggles, quiet companionship, and the joy of watching a once-shy pup blossom into his best self.

Breed overview
Overview:
A mongrel, mutt, or mixed-breed dog, is a dog that is not the result of breeding within an existing breed or to modify or create a breed and belongs to no breed. In the United States, the term "mixed-breed" is a favored synonym over "mongrel" among many who wish to avoid negative connotations associated with the latter term. The implication that such dogs must be a mix of defined breeds may stem from an inverted understanding of the origins of dog breeds. Pure breeds have been, for the most part, artificially created from random-bred populations by human selective breeding with the purpose of enhancing desired physical, behavioral, or temperamental characteristics. Dogs that are not purebred are not necessarily a mix of such defined breeds. Therefore, among experts and fans of such dogs, "Mongrel" is still the preferred term.
