Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Shepherd / Mixed. Hi! I’m Rufus—a shy, silly, 6-year-old Shepherd/Pit mix (70 lbs) looking for my forever home! I can be a little awkward at times, but I love car rides, plushy toys, cuddles, and doggy playdates. Fetch isn't my style, but I'm a fantastic, quiet driving buddy and companion. I warm up to women quickly, but I'm friendly with everyone once given a moment. I’d do great with a dog sibling—I'm patient with playful pups and happy to lounge with calmer dogs. I don't currently live with kids or small pets but my old best friend was a 25lb dachshund. I’m non-destructive, didn't need a crate in foster care, and walk nicely on a leash without much pulling. My recall could use a little practice, but I'm a smart, gentle boy ready to give you all my love! Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis.

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.
