Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Mixed. Available for Adoption: Meet Mac! Mac got his name after being found abandoned behind a McDonald's "up north." After completing his stray hold with no owner coming forward and no microchip found, he was placed in a foster home, where he quickly showed everyone what a wonderful dog he is. Mac is a kind, gentle, affectionate boy who loves being with his family. He enjoys spending time outdoors, whether it's going for walks, hiking, camping, or simply playing in the yard. His favorite toys include bully sticks, Bamboo Bones, balls, and stuffed animals. When playtime is over, he's just as happy to curl up in a warm lap or relax on the couch next to his people. Mac is friendly with everyone he meets and has a sweet, easygoing personality. He's eager to please, very intelligent, and learns quickly. He has already mastered basic commands such as come, sit, down, off, and leave it. He's currently working on leash manners and house training. Mac would do best in a home with:A securely fenced yard, a doggy door, another friendly dog to be his companion (preferred) Training & Compatibility: Crate trained (comfortable for about 6 hours and sleeps in his crate), Approximately 75–80% potty trained (also uses piddle pads), learning leash skills, great with kids, cats & other dogs. If you're looking for a loving, loyal companion with a gentle heart and a happy spirit, Mac may be the perfect addition to your family. He's ready to find the forever home he deserves! He has had 2 vet visits, he has undescended testicles (cryptorchidism) and due to his age the vet is putting off his neuter for 3 months. Ghost Town will be paying to neuter him at a later date. He is Microchipped, UTD on all vaccinations, had a 4 DX test (testing for Lyme disease and two types of tick-borne illnesses), flea/tick/heartworm prevention (Nexgard Plus), 2 dewormings, and a 1 fecal test. Adopters will receive all original paperwork, a 14-day health guarantee, a collar, harness, leash, seatbelt lock, and a week's worth of food.

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.
