Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Tom has mastered the art of pretending he is an innocent little gentleman while quietly plotting low-level terrier nonsense in the background. One minute he’s shyly leaning in for head scratches and soft kisses, the next he’s trotting away with his leash or toy, looking far too pleased with himself. Beneath the tiny rebel act is an adorable little dog who truly loves people and blossoms with attention. Tom may take a moment to warm up, but then he soaks up the attention and becomes a perfect fun loving companion. This scruffy boy will be a daily source of laughter for a family that appreciates a little humor, a lot of heart, and the occasional unexplained missing slipper.

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.
