Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Terrier / Mixed. Not much is known about how Davey came into this world, but it does not take long to discover what a playful and affectionate cuddle bug he is. He is a 5-month-old hound mix with a brown coat, floppy ears and an adorable white stripe down the center of his face. Davey currently weighs 20 pounds, and it is estimated he will be a medium sized dog (31-60 pounds) when he reaches his adult size. Fun could be his middle name as he seeks playtime and games with children and other dogs. It is not known if Davey enjoys the company of cats. Davey is learning that being a good boy at home means learning his manners, so he is absorbing housetraining, crate training and walking on a lead. Puppy training requires consistent lessons with plenty of positive reinforcement. It is important to remember that rescue dogs may have accidents as they transition to a new home. If crate training is planned, Davey requires a crate that is big enough for him to turn around, stand in and lie down as he grows. Crates need to be warm welcoming places and must never be used for punishment. Davey is a cutie who craves lots of affection and friends so if you can see yourself snuggled up with a sweet fellow, Davey will fit the bill. * 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 Davey 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.
