Description
Dog Breed: Unknown breed. I have had Crane for about a month. At 11 months, he is on the edge between puppy and adult.But one of my dogs has taken a dislike to him and keeps attacking him. For his safety, he needs to be adopted soon. Crane is a lovely boy. He adores people and begs everyone for pets. He also gets along with cats. The only thing he wants out of life is to be with his people, especially in physical contact. I've been taking him to work with me, and the whole way there and back, he curls up in my lap. If I sit on the couch, he wants to sit with me, touching me. He's a Border Collie mix, but I'm not quite sure what the mix is. He is 40 pounds, and I don't expect him to get any larger. He is slender and long and does a lot of jumping. He just can't contain the happiness. What tells me he is a mix is that his head is not really quite a collie shape. The rest of him is smooth coat BC. He is highly treat, or just food generally, oriented so training him should be easy. He was 10 months old when I rescued him. He had previously been rescued by a someone north of Atlanta literally as he was being led back for euthanasia and she said no, we're not doing today. But her Homeowner's Association told her yes we are, get rid of him or sell your house and move, so I took him in. He does have separation anxiety, but look at it from his point of view. In his first 10 months of life, he has lived in at least 4 different places. In his little world, everyone he loves always leaves. Given his history of being attacked, it is probably best that he be an only dog. But if a wonderful only dog is what you're looking for, he will be the best friend you ever had, and I long for him to find a place where the people he loves do not leave. **** Breed: Border collie mix **** Pet Link: .nokillnetwork/adoption/pet_detail.php?petid=2191496&flag=1

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.
