Description
Dog Breed: Belgian Shepherd Malinois (medium coat). Wink headed to a foster home with one of our volunteers, where she gets to hang out with other active working breeds, and we can get to know her better. Wink is most likely only a couple years old. As she came to us as a stray (with another active dog!) we are going by best guess based on our observations. Wink foes not appear to be as intense as many of the Belgian Malinois dogs we see, but she will still be needing a job to do to keep her happy. We are enjoying updates from her trainer-foster, and a spay is in the schedule soon. PLEASE NOTE: This pet has been posted by Friends of Campbell County Animal Control, Rustburg, VA.

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.
