Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Meet Colby, the sweet, slightly grumpy-faced gentleman — equal parts serious expression and silly puppy heart. Don’t let his concerned little brow fool you… he’s a gentle, goofy boy who just wants love (and maybe to supervise your daily activities). While we can’t confirm their exact breed mix, these pups have the classic good looks of a Boxer with some hound-like charm mixed in. Colby also looks like he could have some Saint Bernard mixed in. Colby is a sweet, gentle 15 week old boy with a hilarious twist — he has a permanently “grumpy” little face that makes him look deeply concerned about the state of the world… even while he’s being cuddled. It’s completely misleading. Beneath that serious expression is a clumsy, goofy puppy who loves to play. He’s playful but fairly calm as far as puppies go. Confident and independent, Colby enjoys exploring — but if you pull him into your lap, he melts and happily soaks up the attention. He’s great with other dogs, gentle and curious with cats, and does well with kids. He’s still working on potty training. Colby does well in his crate once he’s inside, though he isn’t quite convinced about going in on his own yet and may take a little longer to settle. With consistency and patience, he’ll continue to build confidence. Colby may grow a bit larger than his brother and could land in the medium-to-large range. Available for adoption 3/8.

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.
