Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Schnauzer / Mixed. Adoption Fee: 500. Meet Wallie – A Handsome, Independent Pup with a Taste for Adventure Wallie is a charming, good-looking guy who’s ready to find his place in the world. Found as a stray, he likely spent most of his life outdoors, so he’s still getting used to life inside a home. He can be vocal when confined or in his kennel, but that’s just his way of saying he’s ready to get out and explore! Wallie is playful, loves toys, and has an independent streak—he’s not overly concerned with impressing strangers and tends to do his own thing. But don’t let his aloofness fool you—he’s curious, open to new experiences, and slowly learning how nice it is to be part of a family. He is also super athletic. He may be a good candidate for agility training! He thinks kiddie pools are amazing - so much so he doesn't want to share one. That seems to be the one thing he wants to himself so he may need some help working on that if he'll be expected to share his pool and it may take him some time to be OK with it. He’s still working on potty training and basic manners, so a home with someone who’s around more often would really help him adjust and succeed. With a bit of guidance and patience, Wallie has all the potential to be a loyal hiking buddy, adventure partner, and all-around great companion. Wallie is from Texas.

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.
