Foster Home Feedback 10/20/25 Foster Feedback: Jerry has been with us for a kennel break for several days now. He does extremely well with our dog who can be a bit of a diva. Jerry handles her cues like a champ and doesn't bother her when she wants to left alone. He has started going to the door when he wants to go out so other than the one accident (middle of the night so I probably slept through him telling us he needed to go) there has been no issues at all. Jerry has zero reaction to our neighbors dogs on three sides of our fence. He takes treats very nicely and does not bother you when you are eating. He will just sit patiently waiting in case you want to share. He will take a bit to get used to new people as he is pretty scared of them, but with some patience he will learn to trust you and become your shadow. We are working on that so he can learn that he is brave and doesn't need to be scared of that big scary world out there. I work remotely so most of the day he is curled up by my feet, keeping me company. Jerry has not chewed on anything other then the toys we have out for him. Sometimes he likes to see what's on the counters, but listens right away when he is told no. He is extremely smart and has picked up on our routine fast. He has been left home alone-not in a crate-a few times for roughly 4 hours. There were no accidents and he basically just chilled on the couch while we were gone. We have pet cameras to check in on them. Jerry likes to play in the back yard and is learning to bring the ball back. He loves a good squeaky toy, loves to play catch and playing with our dog. Jerry would do best in a home with another dog to play with and show him how brave he is. Since he is timid he would best in a home that would be patient and let him get comfortable on his own time. 10/19/25 Volunteer Feedback: Jerry is a loyal pup with a heart full of love. He enjoys lounging on the couch and soaking up affection. He’ll play when you toss a toy, but his temperament is more mellow. His beautiful fur patterns make him stand out, and his loyal personality truly shines. Walks can make him a little nervous, but with some treats and gentle encouragement, he’s learning to explore the world with confidence. 9/10/25 Volunteer Feedback: Jerry walked so well on our morning shift today, loose leash most of the time. He's getting better every day at being brave! 8/25/25 Volunteer Feedback: I had Jerry over at my house this last weekend for a kennel break, and he was a very good boy! He is a little bit shy but warms up very quickly and is definitely very loving. I find him to be a great walker, and even when he gets a bit surprised by other dogs or sudden noises, he can redirect and keep going. Jerry doesn’t become reactive or bark. He is a very sweet boy! 8/25/25 Volunteer Feedback: Jerry is a gentle, affectionate boy who forms deep bonds with the people he trusts. While he may be a little unsure in new environments, a few kind words, a couple of treats, and a reassuring touch goes a long way. He quickly blossoms into the sweetest, most loyal companion. On walks, Jerry is attentive and connected, often glancing back to make sure you're still with him. He thrives on human connection and is happiest when he knows he’s part of your world. If you're looking for a devoted friend who will love you wholeheartedly, Jerry would love to meet you! To view additional dogs available for adoption, please see our website: .4luvofdog

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.
