Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Hound / Mixed (long coat). Duke is a handsome shepherd-hound mix with a heart full of happiness and a tail that never stops wagging. He’s the kind of dog who greets the world with enthusiasm and just wants a chance to be part of it. Duke has spent too much time without an outlet for his energy, and like many smart, active dogs, he’s made his own “projects” out of boredom—chewing blankets and anything he can find, which has unfortunately led to a few surgeries. This isn’t who he is at his core—it’s a dog who simply hasn’t had the stimulation and attention he deserves. What Duke truly needs is a home where he can stretch his legs, stay engaged, and have someone looking out for him. With the right environment, structure, and supervision, he has all the potential to be an incredibly loyal, fun, and loving companion. He was left tied to a fence, but he hasn’t let that define him. Duke is still hopeful, still joyful, and still ready to give his whole heart to someone who will give him a real chance. If you’re looking for a happy, energetic dog who just needs a little guidance and a lot of love—Duke is waiting.

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.
