Mixed Breed

male, medium, baby
DESCRIPTION
Grumpy may have a slightly grumpy-looking ear, but his personality is anything but! This social, playful boy is full of energy and loves being around his people. He's an attention seeker who wants to be part of whatever is happening, and he's always ready for some affection, playtime, or a good round of ear and butt scratches.
Grumpy loves his toys, especially stuffies and squeaky toys, and his playful side comes out in full force when there's something fun to chase or carry around. He's an energetic boy who can get jumpy and mouthy when he's excited, so he'll need a family willing to continue working on his manners and help him learn appropriate ways to show his enthusiasm.
Grumpy gets along with other dogs and has done well with children of all ages. He is crate trained and would thrive with a family that can provide structure, routine, daily exercise, and plenty of positive outlets for his energy. He does resource guard his food, so his family will need to give him space during meals and continue working on appropriate mealtime behavior.
And then there's that ear. Grumpy's unique, deformed ear gives him a look that is completely his own and adds even more personality to an already memorable dog. If you're looking for a fun-loving, social companion with plenty of character, Grumpy is ready to find a family who will appreciate everything that makes him uniquely him.
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.
