Bert is the perfect mix of active outdoor buddy and chill indoor roommate. He’s as happy to be lying next to (or on top of) his human, as he is to be chasing a ball or perfecting his grass-rolling technique. The only things cuter than his fabulous personality are his little lower teeth that give him the most charming, goofy smile -- the kind that instantly makes you giggle.
Bert is very smart and has perfected "sit" and loose-leash walking. He’s also great in the car and on long walks, soliciting pets from everyone he meets. He has the calm demeanor of an older gentleman and the manners to match. He’ll let you eat without hovering, is housebroken, keeps a tidy kennel, and is a quiet co-worker. Bert is happy to snooze on his own while you work, even gladly going to another room during conference calls.
Bert will be an amazing dog for someone who wants a chill, goofy, and cuddly sidekick who just goes with the flow. Meet this sweetheart today and let Bert show you just how special he is.
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.
The terrier is a spirited and intelligent dog breed known for its feisty personality and boundless energy. Terriers come in various sizes and coat types, but they all share a common heritage as fearless and determined hunters. These dogs are typically highly trainable, making them versatile companions for active individuals and families alike. With their loyalty and playful demeanor, terriers are beloved for their endless enthusiasm and affectionate nature.
