Description
Dog Breed: Belgian Shepherd Malinois. WELCOME TO MAD — LOOSEY! Look who has officially made her way into the MAD family! Meet Loosey, our newest Malinois girl! Loosey came to us after being seized from a residence, and there are still plenty of blanks in this girl's story. But honestly, we're much more interested in what comes next anyway. During her evaluation, she wasn't interested in immediately becoming best friends with a complete stranger... which, fair. I also have some stranger danger fear. She preferred to take a minute, assess the situation and decide for herself whether this new human deserved access. But apparently Loosey was already feeling a little differently when it was time to get OUT. At pickup she was in a much better mood, and we're already discovering that this girl has a few things tucked away in that pretty head of hers. She knows sit and down, and it looks like she may even have a little bit of a heel command hiding in there too. Okay, Loosey, we see you. Her evaluator described her as a calmer, lower-drive Malinois, and she seems to be a girl who would rather take in what's happening around her before deciding exactly how she feels about it. And now she gets all the time she needs to do exactly that. She's out. She's safe. And she's officially MAD. Right now, we're going to let Loosey settle in, decompress and start showing us who she really is. Because we have a feeling there is a whole lot more personality hiding behind that cautious first impression. And we're pretty excited to meet her. Welcome to MAD, Loosey! We're so glad you're here.

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.
