Dog Breed: Schnauzer (short coat). Adoption Fee: 620. FOSTER NEEDED FOR SHADOW 3-Year-Old Male Giant Schnauzer Shadow might look tough, but this big boy just wants to play and be near his person. Like his sister, he was raised as a junkyard guard dog and kept isolated — but he’s been nothing but sweet with the handler he trusts. He doesn’t love being poked or muzzled — can you blame him? — but with calm direction (especially in Spanish!), he listens right away. Once he knows you’re on his side, Shadow turns into a goofy, affectionate, tail-wagging buddy who wants to be involved in everything. High-energy, smart, and very strong Needs structure and leash training Not dog-tested off leash — we’re seeking a solo foster home Playful, loving, and just wants to belong Shadow is the kind of dog who thrives when he’s given purpose. He’s ready to unlearn old habits and discover what it means to be part of a home — not just a property. Are you his person? Let’s help Shadow leave the junkyard behind and start his new chapter.

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.
