Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Mixed (medium coat). Meet Watson: A Big Heart Looking for a Calm, Committed Home There’s no one quite like Watson. With his soulful eyes, love for routine, and passion for mental challenges (think training), Watson is a truly special dog who’s ready for his next chapter with the right person. Watson thrives in a calm, adult-only home where he can be your one and only. He bonds deeply with his humans and prefers a quiet, structured environment where he can relax and be himself without the stress of other pets or young children. What Watson Needs: A home with no other pets or children . Watson does best as the solo star of the household. Access to a private, fenced-in yard is a big plus so he can safely explore, sniff, and relax in his own space without leash restriction. Daily exercise and mental stimulation are key! He loves a consistent routine, enrichment games, and time outdoors. We’ll share his training progress and techniques so you can pick up right where we left off and continue helping him succeed. Watson still has 5 months of free veterinary care through his current clinic (excluding specialty services), so you’ll have support as he transitions into his new home. Watson has shown that he needs a specific kind of environment to truly thrive. He's been in situations in the past which have helped us understand what his boundaries are and how to support him best. With the right structure, Watson does incredibly well. He’s been working hard with training, and his progress is something we’re really proud of. In the right home, Watson will be a loyal, quirky, and loving companion. He just needs someone who has experience with dogs/dog behavior and can offer him the dedicated time, structure, and space he needs to truly flourish. If you think you might be Watson’s person, or know someone who could be, please reach out. We’d love to tell you more about this handsome guy and help make his next chapter his best one yet. Watson is a member of our Keep Them Home program

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.
