Description
Dog Breed: Poodle (unknown type) / Mixed (long coat). Adoption Fee: 300. Please contact Jessica (jesswalton.jwgmail) for more information about this pet. Alfredo is a 3-year-old white poodle mix with a huge personality packed into one small, fluffy body. After a rough start in life, this resilient little guy is discovering just how good love and comfort can be and he’s soaking it up every chance he gets. It’s impossible not to smile around him! Alfredo is playful, affectionate, cuddly, and endlessly entertaining. He loves squeaky toys, bones, zooming around the yard, and then dramatically crashing into a nap curled up beside his favorite person. He’s happiest hanging out near his humans, whether that’s snuggled in bed, relaxing in his crate, or perched by the window keeping watch on the world outside. Because Alfredo is such a smart and observant dog, he thrives with gentle guidance and a patient routine that helps him feel secure and confident. He forms strong bonds with the people he trusts and will do best in a calmer home with older, respectful children or adults who understand that sensitive dogs blossom with kindness and consistency. He’s also quite the adventurous little guy and likes to explore, so a secure fenced yard is a must and supervised outdoor time will help keep him safe while he enjoys his zoomies. Alfredo does well with other dogs but doesn't like cats. He is house-trained, crate-trained, and has plenty of love to give to the lucky person who earns his trust. Alfredo is looking for someone who will appreciate both his playful side and his sensitive heart. In return, he’ll be a loving, loyal companion who never stops making life more fun. Alfredo is neutered, up to date on shots, and microchipped.

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.
