DESCRIPTION
Why choose me?
Jagger is a handsome fellow. He walked nicely with me to the interaction pen and then had fun running around the play yard. When I held up a tennis ball, his eyes sparkled, and I just knew he'd play fetch. He chased the ball a few times but never brought it back. Maybe next time. Jagger's former owner said that Jagger is house trained and crate trained. He's been around children and is good with most dogs, but he and another dog he'd grown up with in the home weren't getting along. Jagger knows how to sit and was friendly to his canine neighbor at the fence. When I told him it was time to go, he met me at the gate and waited to be leashed. Jagger had a good time outside, but in his former home, one of his favorite things to do was lie on the sofa with his blanket. That's sweet and I hope he gets to do that with a new family.

ABOUT: MIXED BREED DOG BREED
The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
