Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed. Max is a 1-year-old, 55-pound bundle of energy and love who is finally getting the fresh start he deserves. Max came to us from a difficult local situation. His owner, who suffers from the effects of a traumatic brain injury, got Max hoping he would be a companion. Unfortunately, Max's energy level and needs were more than he could manage. As a result, Max spent much of his young life confined to a crate, often for long periods of time with little exercise or stimulation. When we learned about Max's situation, we immediately stepped in and welcomed him into our rescue. Despite everything, Max has remained an incredibly friendly, happy dog. He loves people, does well with kids, and enjoys the company of other dogs. He is house-trained, crate-trained, and eager to be part of a family. Because he missed out on some important training and socialization, Max could use a little work on his basic manners, but he is young, smart, and ready to learn. Max is an active dog who will thrive with a family that can give him plenty of exercise, structure, and attention. After spending so much of his life waiting in a crate, he deserves a home where he can run, play, and simply be a dog. Please help give Max the life he's been missing. Max is microchipped, neutered, and up to date on vaccines.

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.
