Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. This is “Brutus”, but we call him “Sonny” because it suits his personality! He appears to be a PBGV (Betit Bassat Griffon Vendeen) and true to the breed he is a happy and level-headed boy. Sonny is like a big lazy dog in a small dog body. Outside in the fenced yard he will chase a ball and zoomie, but once back in the house he just wants to snuggle with his people, nap on the couch, or look out the window. Our street has many passersby and he is surprisingly quiet for a hound. He lets out a little hound-dog howl when we leave, but settles down after a minute. Sonny is house-trained and loves his food. He did not like the crate but doesn’t need one. He sleeps at the foot of the bed quiet as a mouse. Sonny is friendly but indifferent to other dogs. He will walk in a group or alone, and does not pull. He sometimes gets underfoot and sometimes spooks at passing cars. We have not encountered any cats or small children yet, but he is so mellow I think he will be fine in any household. Brutus is up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, neutered, started on monthly flea and heartworm prevention and his adoption fee is $300. Apply to meet and adopt Brutus at mpravl All Mountain Pet Rescue (Asheville) animals are up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed/neutered and micro-chipped before adoption.

Please note that visual breed identification of companion animals has been proven to be unreliable, so for most of our animals we provide a best guess at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our animals as an individual and do our best to describe and place pets based on personality not breed label.

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.
