Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Mixed (short coat). Axel, Shepherd mix, Tan and White, Male neutered, 5 years old Axel is a very affectionate boy once you give him the time he needs to warm up and become comfortable around new people. Once he is comfortable, he loves to play ball, and enjoys getting attention and pets. He would do best in a home with children over the age of 15 years old, as younger children may be too much for him. A quiet home with a family experienced with his breed would be best for him. He seems to do well with other dogs, but does seem unsure with cats. **This dog is at the Ocean County Animal Facility South located at 360 Haywood Rd, Manahawkin NJ (off of Garden State Parkway South Exit 63) Adoption hours 1-4 p.m. 7 days a week. Contact the facility at (609) 978-0127.

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.
