Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: 550. Copper is a puppy born around 11/19 who is ready to find his forever home! His breed is a bit of a mystery, but he does have shorter legs like a Dachshund. He has a beautiful, soft red coat and an expressive face that is impossible to resist. His mom weighs only 13 lbs, and based on his current growth, Copper will likely stay on the lower-medium side as an adult. Copper is a wonderful medium-energy puppy. He enjoys playtime but does not need constant activity, making him a great balance of playful and relaxed. He also loves curling up in a lap with a toy to chew on before drifting off to sleep. He is doing great with puppy pads and sleeps through the night in a puppy pen with his siblings. Because he has been with his brothers, his reaction to crate training is still unknown, but he understands the concept of down time. He is food motivated, and doing well learning the ‘Sit’ command. If you’re looking for a sweet puppy who enjoys both playtime and cuddles, Copper could be the perfect addition to your family!

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.
