Description
Dog Breed: Black Labrador Retriever / Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Smokey is a beautiful black lab mix who came from our partner rescue in Louisiana and is now in a NJ foster home. Can you believe this handsome boy was found on the streets? He is doing great in his new environment, but is still shy around new people. Can you blame him? With a few treats and belly rubs, he gets over that. He shows his love through hugs and kisses. He loves to play with other dogs, big and small. Smokey knows basic commands. He passed basic obedience and is working on his advanced commands. He knows sit, stay, heel, come and shake. He's a good boy who sleeps in his crate at night. He is 90% potty trained, almost there but a new environment may set him back a bit. When it comes to people, he's shy and needs a little time to get used to you before his true cuddle bug shines through. He’ll probably do best in a home without little kiddos, as sudden movements and high energy can scare him. All Smokey wants is to run in a fenced yard, ideally with a canine friend. He has a lot of energy, so an active family that also wants to do training or mental stimulation with him would be best. After his bursts of energ, he flips to full couch potato mode. . Smokey is fixed, up to date on rabies, DHPP and Bordetella vaccines. His adoption fee will be $450. How to Adopt Me!

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.
