Description
Dog Breed: Belgian Shepherd Malinois / German Shepherd Dog. Rios isn’t just looking for a place to stay — she’s looking for someone to belong to. After losing her owner, the person she adored, she’s been trying to make sense of a world that suddenly feels empty. This beautiful black Malinois/German Shepherd absolutely loves to engage, work and play. She is a very smart dog who wants to please and be close to her person. She has lots of drive and is playful and a very fun dog. And she has obedience down – knows all the basics, has fantastic recall, walks great on a loose leash and is off-leash trained with an e-collar. She holds her beloved blue ball in her mouth to keep it near her at all times, but tug is her joy and has a solid “out.” Rios is a well-behaved girl in the home. Her one challenge is the crate — she needs someone patient who can help her with positive, gentle crate training, with treats and praise to understand that happiness and joy can come from the crate. Rios’ lost the person she loved – who can help her find her new owner to love and adore?

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.
