Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Mixed. Blitz is a handsome 1-year-old Shepherd mix weighing about 50 pounds who is looking for his forever home. He’s been doing wonderfully in his foster home since being found as a stray with his sister back in January. Blitz is a sweet, affectionate boy who truly believes he’s a lap dog! He loves being close to his people and enjoys spending time with his foster siblings. He does great with other dogs, though his compatibility with cats is still unknown. He is mostly housebroken with only the occasional accident and is crate trained. While he prefers being out with his people, he settles in after a few short whines. Blitz also walks nicely on a leash and loves going for walks and adventures. This playful boy enjoys treats, chew bones, and even water, and he has quite the personality—he likes to “talk,” which makes us think he might have a little Husky in him! Blitz would do best with children 12 and older, as younger kids are still untested. One thing to know about Blitz: he’s a bit of an escape artist, so his crate should be reinforced and a secure home environment will help him stay safe. Blitz is a lovable, fun companion who is ready to find a family that will give him the love and stability he deserves. If you’re looking for a loyal best friend with a big heart and lots of personality, apply today. He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and will be available for adoption starting 3/19 through Paws Across Pittsburgh, Springdale, PA KL# 16182.

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.
