Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Mixed (short coat). Hi, my name is Barney and I'm about 6 months old. Me and my litter mate, Betsy, were rescued by Bond County Humane Society from a shelter in KY. When we arrived we were severely underweight caused by infestation of parasites. We were treated and we have thrived and grown tremendously after receiving treatment. I am friendly and affectionate. I love playing with toys if I'm not playing with Jake, another dog at the shelter. I am working on my puppy manners. So far I know "Sit" and "Down". Sometimes I will also "Shake". I will do anything you want me to do for a treat. I would do best with older children who can handle my energy. I am crate trained and working on house training. I am available for immediate adoption. I am neutered, UTD on vaccinations, treated for internal and external parasites and micro chipped. My adoption fee is $300. If you are interested in making me a member of your family please complete an Adoption Profile in person or on-line at .bondcohumane. Email the completed profile to the address provided. A copy of our policy regarding warranties, refunds and returns is available upon request.

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.
