“Mixed Breed dogs are just as good as purebred dogs, just sometimes they have a little bit different look to them, because their moms and dads are usually 2 different breeds of dogs.”

“Just like all dogs, Mixed Breeds need to be socialized when they are young, usually starting at 8 weeks old. You want your young puppy to be socialized, which means he or she should be meeting other animals, and people and children, and anything that might harm or hurt them, they need to be aware of also.

“All most all dogs can make good watch dogs. They might not be big enough to attack an intruder, but if you have a dog, and he or she can bark when they hear noises, that is usually a good sign of a good watch dog, that can help you watch stuff, but can't actually do anything about it but bark.”

“Mixed breed puppies and dogs can come in all shapes and sizes, and all of the stories you can read here, are still good for your puppy or dog, since a lot of the articles are useful for any type breed dog really.”

“If you give your dog love, and get them into obedience training as soon as possible, so you and your dog can bond together, and learn some new tricks, you will be glad you did.”

“It is your dog's way of getting your attention, and the best way he or she knows, is jumping up on you when they see you, and want to greet you and get some attention from you.”

“This is almost always cute when your Mixed Breed is a puppy, but when he or she gets bigger, that would get old really fast! You need to teach your puppy not to jump up and get excited when they see you.”

“Some of the best ways to teach your Mixed Breed not to jump up on people, and you don't want guests and family members avoiding your dog that jumps up on people, now do you!”

“The best way to curb this is to not be excited when you see your dog, and don't make eye contact. When your dog goes to jump up on you, turn your body so he or she slides down. Keep doing this, and do not talk to the dog, just use your body language. Keep turning to the side until your dog finally settles down, and then when he or she is standing calm, give them praise for being calm.”

“Your Mixed Breed should learn to be calmer, and they will get the praise they desire, much sooner. Make sure you have all the other family members on board, if one person lets the dog jump up, he or she will be confused, so get the whole family into the training program!”

“Your puppy or dog will not grasp this right away, but with proper training, and repetitive training, your dog will become a much better family member!”
