Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed. Available for Adoption! Targus, say hello to this one-of-a-kind pup with a heart as big as his personality. This amazing gem is full of quiet charm and gentle wisdom—truly an old soul in a young body. Targus is a pup who knows what he likes—and politely lets you know, too! Offer him a treat, and if it’s not his thing, he’ll gently sniff it and nudge it away like a gentleman saying, “No, thank you.” He always greets you with a calm sit and a sweet offer of his paw. Targus is: polite, gentle, and well-mannered, well behaved, eager to please, mature and sensitive to correction, a cuddle bug who’s just as happy curling up next to you or entertaining himself. He is working on basic commands like come, sit, down, off, and leave it. Still learning how to stay, give paw/shake and fetch. He’s crate trained, working on potty training at 85%, not leash trained yet, great with kids, cats, and all dogs. Targus will thrive in both a calm or active home where he can continue to grow into the Incredibles companion he’s already becoming. If you’re looking for a sweet, soulful pup who brings peace and warmth wherever he goes—Targus is your guy. He has had a vet visit, is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated - DHPP x 4 (fully vaccinated), Rabies, & Bordetella x 2, had a 4 DX test (testing for Lyme disease and two types of tick-borne illnesses), flea/tick/heartworm prevention (Nexgard Plus), two dewormings, and 2 fecal test. Adopters will receive all original paperwork, a 14-day health guarantee, a collar, harness, leash, seatbelt lock, and a week's worth of food. We operate on a first-come, first-served basis and are by appointment only. We are located in Mesa near Gilbert/Brown & offer flexible hours for meet-and-greet appointments. Private message if interested!

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.
