Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Terrier / Mixed. Meet Ruger, a striking black shepherd mix with a bold name and an even bigger heart. At just five months old, this handsome pup is already turning heads with his shiny black coat, intelligent brown eyes, and a curious, playful spirit that is beginning to blossom. Weighing in at about 34 pounds, Ruger still has some growing to do and will likely mature into a large dog of somewhere over 60 pounds. Ruger loves playing with other dogs and does wonderfully with children. He has not met any cats since coming into rescue, so his feline compatibility is still unknown. Like any young pup, Ruger is learning the ropes. He is currently working on crate training, house training, and walking politely on a leash. With his smarts and eagerness to please, he is sure to pick things up quickly, especially with consistency, patience, and lots of love. If Ruger sounds like the perfect addition to your family, apply today and help this sweet boy begin his next chapter. * When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine. They adjust much better when their owners are committed to providing consistency and stability. The adoption fee for Ruger is $500. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transportation fees. To get the ball rolling, head over to our Adoption Application and submit your application today. A Dog Star representative will contact you within 24 hours. To speed up the process, contact your vet and give them permission to speak with us. If you do not get a response within 24 hours, check your spam folder.

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.
