Description
Dog Breed: Corgi / Shepherd / Mixed (medium coat). Meet Tonka! With his charming low-rider build, perky ears, and a big, goofy tongue that is almost always happily hanging out, Tonka is impossible not to love. At around eight months old and 40 pounds, Tonka looks like a delightful mix of Corgi and Basset Hound—built low and long, with enough puppy enthusiasm and charm to light up any room. He is making the journey all the way from Mountain City, Tennessee to Eleventh Hour Rescue in New Jersey in search of his forever family. Tonka is an absolute sweetheart who is great with other dogs and loves kids. He has also been cat tested and, with proper, thoughtful introductions, would most likely do just fine sharing a home with feline companions. Because he is an energetic youngster, an active household that enjoys daily walks, yard playtime, and fun adventures will be the perfect match for his playful spirit. Tonka is neutered, up to date on all of his core vaccines, and heartworm negative. If you are looking for a fun, affectionate, low-to-the-ground buddy ready to roll right into your heart, Tonka is your guy. Visit .ehrdogs to submit an application and bring him home!

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.
