Description
Dog Breed: Belgian Shepherd Malinois. Meet Lucy! This stunning 2-year-old Belgian Malinois is ready to find the home where she can truly shine. Lucy is a smart, affectionate girl who adores people and thrives when she gets one-on-one attention from her person. Lucy would do best as the only pet in her new home, where she can soak up all the love and attention. She might be able to live with a calm, submissive male dog with slow introductions, but her dream family will give her the gift of being their one and only. She’s still learning the ropes when it comes to commands and training, but she’s highly motivated by treats and already showing interest in scent work — she could be a wonderful candidate for nose work or other fun dog sports! With patience and consistency, Lucy will continue to blossom. Some of Lucy’s favorite things include: Chasing dragonflies in the yard Cuddling up with her person Treat-based games and enrichment She is kennel trained and doing well with her house manners, and while she’s not quite a fan of car rides yet, she’s working on it and will improve with time and routine. Lucy’s ideal adopter is someone with breed experience or the willingness to continue her training, patience, and love. In return, Lucy will give you her whole heart and endless devotion.

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.
