Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 450. Meet Alan – A Little Hound Mix with Big Dreams Alan was born around 12/23 and may still be a little guy, but he’s already dreaming big! Currently weighing just under 7 lbs, Alan is as bold, brave, and inquisitive as they come. This happy pup lights up when he sees humans or other dogs and is always ready to make a new friend. Even at his young age, Alan has already made great progress. He sleeps in his crate all night without a peep (pretty impressive for a baby!) and while he’s not fully potty trained yet, he’s very good at letting you know when it’s time to go out. True to his hound roots, Alan has an excellent nose and can sniff out a treat from a mile away—nothing gets past this little guy! Like many puppies his age, Alan is currently in a typical puppy nipping stage, so a home with children 8 years and older would be the best fit. Alan would love to make someone so very LUCKY! If you’re looking for a fun-loving, affectionate puppy to grow up with your family, Alan might just be your perfect matc The adoption fee of $450 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.

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.
