Unfortunately circumstances for his owner have changed and I took him in to foster… I want to make sure we find him the perfect home. He is only 2.5 years old and the sweetest boy. He is a working breed and needs the structure of work. Very smart sweet boy Dog selective - But does great with slow proper introductions (he is doing great with his foster siblings) Would do best with a fenced in yard or farm No small children - He will try to herd them and possibly nip them. He is a working breed. Potty trained, kennel trained and working on basic commands with him. He is very very smart.

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.
