Description
Dog Breed: Unknown breed (short coat). Ready Freddy is ready to steal your heart! This big-headed, wiggly sweetie wants to be your new best friend! And have you seen that little twinkle in his eye? It's a beautiful blue spot in his iris. Ready Freddy was found running around Philly with another smaller dog, and now that he's wrapped up that adventure, he is looking to settle into a more chilled out lifestyle. Since this squishy boy was found as a stray, we are still learning about him. He is treat-motivated and already knows the cue to "sit." Mr. Ready Freddy seems to be housebroken, so he's got some good things going for him already! When we were doing this cutie's first physical exam, we noticed he had a few abrasions on his face and body. It has fully healed and doesn't require any further care, but he is on a quarantine period that wraps up in November because his wounds are of unknown origin. This means he needs a home without other pets until the quarantine is up! He has done well with meeting other dogs previously and seems like he’d make an excellent canine companion to anyone with a zest for play when the time comes, but right now, he’s looking to shine in the spotlight solo!

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.
