Description
Dog Breed: Unknown breed (short coat). Are you down to clown with Redford? Meet Redford, a 4-month-old pup with a big personality and an even bigger zest for life. His journey started out rocky—he was abandoned at the Grays Ferry clinic and battled parvo—but thanks to the amazing PAWS vet and animal care teams, this brave little survivor has bounced back stronger than ever and is now making up for lost playtime. Redford is a goofy, affectionate guy who wiggles his whole body with joy when he sees you (sometimes adding in excited squeaks for extra flair!) He loves to snuggle, climb into your lap, and fall asleep smushed right up against you. Playtime is his passion—he’ll happily romp with other dogs and pick out his favorite toy of the day before zooming around with it. Like any puppy, Redford is still learning the ropes. He’s working on house training, crate time, and finding his “off switch” after play, but with patience and consistency, he’ll grow into the wonderful companion he’s already showing he can be. Redford would do especially well in a home with a resident dog to help show him the ropes and teach him the art of being a well-mannered pup. Curious, brave, and always ready for adventure, he’s living life to the fullest. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, snuggly sidekick who will keep you laughing and remind you daily to embrace the joy in life, Redford is your guy! Age: ~4 months Animal ID#: A-180351 Weight: ~15lbs and growing! Mixed breed (It’s impossible to identify breed mix by sight alone, so for most dogs, their mix is only a guess.

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.
