Description
Dog Breed: Shetland Sheepdog Sheltie (medium coat). MOXIE is a loveable and friendly, lap-sitting little (14#) boy. He was surrendered by his family when they couldn't provide him with the ongoing medical maintenance (vaccinations, heartworm, and flea-tick prevention) he deserved. I'm told he is kid and cat friendly; however, he had a bad habit of chasing their free-range chickens and plucking their feathers (not harming the birds). I suspect he may not be purebred, although his former owner did acquire him from a backyard breeder who claimed he was. Nonetheless, he's a darling little fella who loves affection and will make a great addition to a deserving new family.

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.
