Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: $250. Hi, I’m Herkimer — professional ball chaser, certified goofball, and full-time lover of my humans. I’m 4.5 years old, 65 pounds of handsome sweetness, and I take my responsibilities very seriously… especially if they involve tennis balls. My dream life is pretty simple: Love my people with my whole heart Chase the ball like it’s the Olympics Parade around proudly with my favorite stuffies I’m what you’d call a medium-energy guy — I can happily run, swim, play fetch, and explore all day, but I’m also very into cuddling up with my humans afterward. Balance, you know? When I meet new people, I act like we’ve been best friends forever. Expect enthusiastic tail wags, happy kisses, and lots of excitement. I adore adults and do best with older kiddos (8+) who can handle my happy-boy enthusiasm. I also get along great with other dogs! Sometimes I get so focused on THE BALL that I forget they’re even there. What can I say? I have priorities. I’m crate trained, potty trained, and very proud of myself for both. I’m also an excellent stuffie collector and would love to show you my favorites. Bonus points if you tell me I’m handsome while I carry them around. My perfect home would have: A yard to zoom around in Active humans who want an adventure buddy Lots of love and attention Tennis balls. Many, many tennis balls. If you’re looking for a loyal best friend with a goofy grin, a heart of gold, and elite fetch skills, I think we should meet. I’ll be the one waiting patiently… probably with a tennis ball in my mouth. Apply to meet me at bit.ly/RRAdoptionApplication

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.
