Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed (short coat). Patch is a 1.5-year-old black and white hound mix with a big heart and an even bigger personality! He entered the Sheriff’s Office Trustee Program at the McCormick County Detention Center in April 2025 and proudly graduated in August. During his months of training, Patch worked one-on-one with his Trustee and a team member from HSMC. This hands-on attention has given Patch a strong foundation in obedience and manners. He knows his cues, walks beautifully on a lead, and is eager to please. Patch loves going for walks, chasing balls (though he hasn’t quite mastered bringing them back yet), and soaking up attention. His favorite thing? Full body rubs, belly scratches, and giving kisses. He’s affectionate, playful, and happiest when spending time with his people. Because of his specialized training, Patch responds best to confident handling, clear commands, and consistency. He was not trained with treats but instead with strong voice cues, hand signals, and leash guidance. He naturally heels to your right side and will happily zoom the yard when given the go-ahead. Patch is ready to bring his loyalty, training, and love into a forever home. Patch might just be your perfect match. *************************************************************************** This pet comes with an implanted 24 PetWatch microchip and free registration into the 24PetWatch pet recovery service. *************************************************************************** This dog is available for adoption at the Humane Society of McCormick County is SC for an adoption fee.

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.
