Description
Dog Breed: Black Labrador Retriever / Labrador Retriever (short coat). Meet Cole! He’s sweet, loyal, and way less complicated than most “tall, dark, handsome” types. Cole is a gorgeous 2 year old Black Lab weighing in at 95 pounds. Sweet and shy, he is one of just two of our Labs remaining from the large neglect case, and he is SO deserving of a loving forever family. Cole starts out a little timid with new people. Coming from a situation of severe neglect with very little socialization or human interaction, trust does not come instantly for him. But with patience, kindness, and a few treats, Cole’s true personality begins to shine. Once he knows you, this gentle giant becomes the ultimate loyal best friend! He loves hugs, adores his people, and will happily attempt to climb right into your lap despite his size. He just might be your perfect adventure buddy. Even though Cole previously lived life outdoors, he has adjusted beautifully to being an indoor companion dog. He is housebroken, kennel trained, and very well behaved inside the home. He free roams without being destructive and quietly naps in his kennel when his foster mom is away. Cole enjoys spending time outside, so a fenced yard is a must. He walks well on leash now. He is great with dogs of all sizes and would do best in a home with older children, as toddlers with sudden loud activity may be overwhelming yet while he continues learning that the world is safe. The biggest thing Cole needs is a family with lots of love to give. He is a pretty low energy guy. Cole is neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested, up to date on vaccines, and ready for his happy ever after. His adoption donation fee is $400.

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.
