Description
Dog Breed: Belgian Shepherd Malinois (medium coat). This is Seo A556732, he is located at the Lompoc Animal Shelter. 1501 W. Central Ave. He was brought into the shelter as a stray on June 26th. In the 56 days he has been in our care, we learned he desperately seeks human attention. He is very sweet and loving. He did well in his overnight foster home. He did not want to be in his crate. It was okay for short timeframes. He did learn how to get out. When left alone in a room his foster parents said he scratched at the door, but was not destructive. He's very gentle with most things. He walks really well on leash. He was not reactive to bikes or cars. He was very excited for people and seeking pets from them. He pulled and jumped but only seeking attention. It was not malicious. He got along with the older female shepherd in the home. He accidentally met the foster parent's cats and didn't chase them, but was curious and cautious. Seo, desperately needs a foster shelter break. His anxiety in the shelter has led to being prescribed medication to help him cope with life in the shelter. We will supply you with food, bowls, toys, bedding, a crate, leash and harness while he is in foster with you. Please share Seo with your community in hopes he will find a positive outcome from the shelter.

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.
