Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Columbia, Missouri

Shadow is an affectionate and energetic dog. Shadow is very motivated by treats and affection. He forms strong bonds with his family and especially enjoys being near his people. He loves companionship and will happily follow you around the house to see what you're doing. He is a smart dog who is eager to learn and has been participating in training, where he has been doing well. He knows basic commands such as coming when called and will sit (sometimes!) and responds well to positive reinforcement. Shadow has lots of energy and would thrive in a home where he has space to run and play regularly. A fenced yard or an active owner who enjoys outdoor time would be ideal. He enjoys walks and opportunities to burn off energy and explore.

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.

Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
