However, mixed-breed dogs, lovingly known as mutts, encompass a wonderful variety of traits and are often some of the most cherished and lovable companions.

Description:

Champ is a tiny 7-pound bundle of love with a big heart and an even bigger personality. The shelter originally estimated him to be around 10 years old, but Champ clearly didn’t get that memo — based on his energy, behavior, and overall health, we estimate he’s likely closer to 5–7 years old.

The first thing you’ll notice about Champ is his adorable signature underbite, which gives him the sweetest little expression and makes it almost impossible not to fall in love the moment you meet him.

Champ is incredibly affectionate and loves being close to his people. He happily soaks up cuddles and attention and seems to believe the best place in the world is right next to you.

Despite his small size, Champ is also wonderfully social with other dogs. In his foster home he gets along beautifully with everyone — even big pit bulls — and enjoys toys and occasionally starting a little play session with his dog friends.

Champ is also an excellent houseguest. He is about 99% housetrained, sleeps quietly in his crate all night without a peep, and has been an easy, well-mannered little gentleman in his foster home.

He also loves car rides, making him the perfect little companion for errands and adventures. At just 7 pounds, Champ is the perfect little sidekick to take everywhere — from coffee runs to road trips to cozy nights on the couch.

If you’re looking for a loving little companion with a charming smile and a heart full of affection, Champ may be your perfect match.
