Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Mixed (long coat). Meet Boone Boone is the absolutely adorable shepherd mix whose journey began with heartbreak. He was cruelly dumped on the streets alongside his family, left to fend for himself in a world that hadn't shown him much kindness. Life out there was tough, and Boone - gentle, sensitive Boone - was being picked on by one of his own furry family members over resources. By the time a rescuer found him, he was so completely shut down that she feared he wasn't even alive. But Boone had other plans. The moment he realized he was safe, Boone made a quiet but powerful decision: he was ready to be rescued. From that day forward, he began his transformation in a lifesaving foster home, where his true personality started to shine. And what a personality it is. Boone radiates joy. Pure, heart-melting, tail-wagging joy. Everything is still wonderfully new to him - including leash walking, which he had never experienced before. While it remains a work in progress, Boone is improving beautifully and gaining confidence every day. What he may lack in experience, he more than makes up for in heart. His deep desire for connection and closeness makes him one of the sweetest, most loving pups you'll ever meet. Boone thrives with kind, patient guidance and would do best with female dogs of a similar size and temperament. With proper introductions and thoughtful supervision, he would likely do well with other pups who can help show him the ropes of doggie friendships and social life. This special boy has come so far from the scared, silent pup he once was. Now he's ready for the final chapter of his story - a forever home filled with love, security, and humans who will cherish the beautiful soul he is. Boone has already chosen hope. Now he's just waiting for someone to choose him. Please apply here for this amazing boy.

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.
