Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). Lucas came back to PCAPS when his family felt he wasn't a good fit. He got passed his pet parents and jumped on the neighbor and scratched him. Lucas is a great dog, but he craves to be active and learn new skills. He needs to work on his manners. He is weary of rude and too playful of dogs, so he isn't a fit for the dog park. He'd enjoy a good hike or puzzles, etc.

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.
