Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). Professor Peabody Bio: This sweet, strong boy is your perfect couch buddy! Life in a kennel has been tough for this young, social dog and despite how vocal he is in this environment, not even the mailman got a reaction out of him in his recent foster home. He still has a lot of puppy energy and can get mouthy when he is over-excited or overwhelmed, but his intentions are innocent, he loves to learn and takes gentle direction well. Prof. Peabody came into the shelter as a stray so very little is known about his background. He adapted very well to his foster home and yard, enjoys having plenty of access to lots of toys and loves eating his food out of puzzles, which is great for directing his energy appropriately. This guy has done well in dog playgroups at the shelter, on group hikes and just loves getting to say hi to new people. He can be a little cautious on walks in new places at first and does well when he can take his time and get plenty of reassurance. He may not quite be power walker but would love meandering through nature with you. This loveable, affectionate, fun and goofy boy still needs some manners training, would do best with lots of one-on-one attention and would love nothing more than curling up next to you at the end of every day.

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.
