Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Terrier / Mixed. Pickles is a big, beautiful, silly dude! At 10 weeks old and 16 pounds, this goofball loves to lay in puddles and keep you smiling all day long with his silly antics and sweet nature. Pickles hasn’t started crate or potty training just yet, but he’s learning more and more every day. As he's adjusted to his new foster home, he's happiest when he's snuggled up next to someone (dog or human). He may get vocal if left alone, so he cannot live in homes with shared walls (no apartments/townhomes). Pickles loves all dogs and is so excited to play! He would do best in a home with a resident dog already to keep him company. He is very curious around cats and currently lives with a feline friend as well. He has been great with the kids he's met, including ages 2-16. He likes to play in the mud, play tug-o-war, and then take a nap on the cold floor when he's done. Overall though, he's a pretty low-energy pup and could do well with low exercise if given enough mental stimulation. Pickles is a happy pup who would love to be your personal shadow. Are you ready to welcome Pickles and his silliness into your life?

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.
