Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed (medium coat). My name is Genevieve! I was adopted out as a puppy but sadly returned to no fault of my own. I'd love to get back into a home ASAP! A shelter is too small for a big hound like myself! I haven't met kids yet but I think I'll like them. I like more polite dogs. That in your face play before we get a chance to know each other scares me.

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.
