With her sweet disposition and loving nature, Tilly will make a wonderful companion. Shepherds are known for their intelligence and sense of loyalty. They tend to be athletic and active, always liking to do something, so they will need ample daily exercise. Tilly undoubtedly will have several of these traits as she grows into her personality. She is a high energy gal so she will thrive in a home with an active family life and/or an equally high energy resident canine. Tilly is currently working on house, crate, and leash training. As a young dog she will make progress when routines are set for her. Lots of praise and consistency will go a long way in reaching that goal. This girl is a survivor with a great personality to match. Interested? * When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine.

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.
