Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Zander is a 12-week-old Shepherd/Husky mix and the most loveable little pup. Though he was the runt of his litter and spent his first few days in intensive care, you’d never know it today. He’s grown into an adorable, scrappy little guy who steals the heart of everyone he meets. When he wants attention, he doesn’t bark or jump, he simply sits politely at your feet and gently pokes your leg with his paw. It’s impossible not to laugh and scoop him up. Practically perfect with house-training and already crate-trained, Zander doesn’t protest when crated and settles in like a champ. He adjusted to his foster home easily, quickly learning the rules and showing just how much he loves being part of a family. He’s patient, food-motivated, eager to please, and truly an ideal pup. While he’s not very vocal, he does get chatty during roughhousing with his sister! He loves other dogs and playing with children. He loves being near his people and would thrive in a home where he gets plenty of attention and activity. He does not have experience with cats so a proper introduction is recommended. Zander is playful when it’s time for fun, and happy to snuggle or nap at your feet when the day winds down. He loves chew toys, especially ones that involve treats. A fenced yard would be a plus in his future home, though it’s not required with a committed and active family. Zander is ready to make you laugh! Are you ready for this personality?

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.
