If you decide to buy/adopt a pet you should know there are many advantages when owning a mongrel.
Several studies have shown that mixed-breed dogs have a health advantage. A German study finds that Mongrels require less veterinary treatment. Studies in Sweden have found that Mongrel dogs are less prone to many diseases than the average pure breed dog and, referring to death rates, Mongrels were consistently in the low risk category.
Mongrel in Vientiane-Lao
In many cases mongrels are aware of the inhumane conditions in which they have previously been living; therefore, they are more likely to show sings of complete adoration and appreciation to you for saving them if you pick up one off the street or go through the adoption process. Most mongrel dogs are not used to having someone care about them on a consistent basis and will welcome your care and affection with open paws. Some of these dogs may have even come from places in which they were beaten—having a loving home means more to these dogs than some people realise.
In most cases, when you adopt a dog, you are saving a life. For those that choose to adopt a dog, this feeling can be very rewarding.
