Homonym: Mutt (Hybrid)
A "Mutt" is a dog that is a mix of different breeds, rather than a purebred. These dogs can vary widely in size, shape, and temperament, depending on their genetic background. Mutts are often found in shelters and are known for their unique appearances and personalities.
Many people appreciate mutts for their diversity and resilience. They can be just as loving and loyal as purebred dogs, and adopting a mutt can help reduce the number of animals in shelters. Additionally, mixed-breed dogs often have fewer genetic health issues compared to some purebred breeds, making them a popular choice for pet owners.
