Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Mixed (short coat). Lenny is an 1-year-old male Shepherd mix who has already been neutered. He was brought in by county animal control and no owner claimed him. Lenny is black with white and brown markings; and he has the longest legs! Lenny weighs 47 pounds so he is considered to be a large dog. He is loving, sweet, and he is eager to please. Lenny needs a patient owner who will help him learn a little more about walking on a leash and not jumping when walking on a leash because he is an energetic guy. Lenny would enjoy life best with an active family who would include him in all of their outdoor activities. Dog/puppy adoption fees are $120. Cat/kitten adoption fees are $75. All pets will be spayed/neutered before adoption; or you will be given a discount spay/neuter certificate to be used at participating vet clinics to help with the cost of spay/neuter. Our adoption fees cover a microchip, microchip registration, deworming, vaccinations (as age and law requires), and a courtesy vet exam at participating offices. Unless otherwise indicated under "special needs" our dogs have screened heart worm negative.

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.
