In an interesting inversion of status, the reigning breed in the dog park these days is the really-oddball-unidentifiable-mixed-breed-mutt-found-wandering-the-street or its equivalent. The stranger the mutt the better; the more peculiar the circumstance of it coming into your life, the better.
My dog's name is Tucker, and his DNA is unidentifiable and suspect.
So why not become a mongrel? It's healthy
The difference between a mongrel and a thoroughbred, whether brute or man, is not in swiftness, beauty, or endurance, but in courage.
My parents' firstborn was a rescued collie mix.
I like a bit of mongrel myself, whether it's a man or a dog.
I had decided that I wanted a dog from an animal shelter. Normally, presidents have purebred dogs, but my is a Labrador-griffon mix. Absolutely adorable.
I have one pug and one Czechoslovakian dog called Prazsky krysarik.
I'm a mixed breed and hope to live longer because of it.
A mutt is a dog. He is the stuff of dogginess, a creature allied to species, not breed, and untrammeled by human hand or preference.
By adopting a wonderful mutt, you'll save a life and help reduce animal homelessness while also boosting your chances of a more robust new furry friend, as mixed-breed dogs have demonstrated better health and longer life spans than their purebred cousins.
I'm a class mongrel.
I have a tendency to think of myself as the mutt of the litter. I'm not purebred.
A lot of shelter dogs are mutts like me.
Our dog, Comet, is a Lab/poodle mix. She's goofy and silly and sweet.
Got a new pup. He is half griffon. The other half is mistake.
