Description
Dog Breed: Unknown breed (short coat). BROWNIE- COURTESY POST- respond to the contact at end of post Brownie began his life as a street dog in India before finding his way into our home and hearts. He was adopted and flown all the way to the US, and he has been nothing short of a gentle, grateful soul. But due to ongoing and serious conflicts with our resident dog — despite our best efforts — we've had to face the heartbreaking reality that keeping both dogs together is no longer safe for either of them. The fights have escalated to the point of requiring multiple emergency veterinary visits, and for the safety and well-being of both dogs, it is best for Brownie to find a home without other dogs. The decision to rehome Brownie is the hardest choice I've ever had to make, and I am committed to finding him the right home. About Brownie: Calm, shy, and incredibly gentle with humans of all ages and sizes Weighs 57 lbs — a healthy boy with a beautiful lean build Loves couch time, and his daily walks — one or two a day keep him happy Walks beautifully on a leash and has learned to ignore other dogs on walks with treat-based rewards Knows basic commands like treat, walk, and food Does not demand constant attention, but deeply adores pets, love, and affection Neutered male, up to date on all vaccines, flea, tick, and heartworm prevention Vet records available through Strawbridge Animal Care Location: Virginia Beach, VA Rehoming fee: $150 (to ensure a serious, committed home) The ideal home for Brownie is one without other dogs, where he can be the sole four-legged companion. He thrives in most environments with someone who enjoys a daily walk and some couch company at the end of the day. If you're looking for an easy-going, low-maintenance dog with a beautiful backstory and an even more beautiful soul — Brownie is your guy. He came a long way to find his forever home. We hope it's with you. If you are interested in meeting Brownie, email me at finding.brownie.a.homegmail

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.
