Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed. Buckles is such a handsome dude. He is happiest when he is with people who give him attention and love. Super sweet guy. He is a year and a half, weighing 64 pounds. He has a beautiful tricolor coat. He was found as a stray and bounced back to being a happy guy. Hounds come in a variety of types. But their personalities can be similar as they are known to be inquisitive, friendly, and intelligent. They are often lively dogs with plenty of energy, as well as being agile and of course, great trackers when using their sense of smell. Maybe Buckles has them all! Then again, he is a mix, so there can be different parts to his personality, as well. He is comfortable around other canines, adults, and kids. It is not known if he has met a cat. He is already leash trained so walks in the park, neighborhood and beyond will be a pleasant experience with Buckles and his leash manners. Buckles has also mastered his house training. He is currently working on crate training. Lots of patience and consistency will go a long way in helping him master these skills. It is important to remember that although Buckles is housetrained, accidents can occur while adjusting to a new home environment. Daily walks will support leash skills as well as socialization skills. It will be a new world to him with all the new sights, smells, sounds, and people along his walk. A secure back yard will give him free time to play and burn off extra energy. Maybe he would also enjoy going for hikes. At home he will also benefit from mental stimulation in the form of activities and play toys. That will keep him from being bored. Buckles will make a wonderful family companion. Are you willing to take on the task of helping him transition to a new life where he is loved and appreciated? If yes, read on. * When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine. They adjust much better when their owners are committed to providing consistency and stability. The adoption fee for Buckles is $500. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transportation fees.

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.
