Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed. River is estimated as 11 weeks old and listed as a hound mix, weighing in at 10lbs. He is just starting his journey and came in with his siblings Caramel and Leroy. He is the thoughtful soul of the trio — loyal, gentle, and full of heart. He’s the kind of pup who watches before he jumps in, but don’t worry — he’s still up for a good puppy wrestling match! River is learning how to be independent, but truly shines when he’s with his people. If you're looking for a cuddle buddy, this sweet boy is your guy. River is smart, observant, and very affectionate. He’s dog-friendly, food-motivated, and doing well with crate and house training. He’ll thrive in a home that’s calm, nurturing, and full of love. He is neutered, up-to-date on age appropriate vaccinations, and will be available for adoption starting 9/16 through Paws Across Pittsburgh, Springdale, PA KL# 16182.

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.
