βοΈNational Mutt Day encourages us to save and celebrate mixed breed dogs. Itβs also celebrated on December 2nd.
β’
About 75% of all dogs at animal shelters are Mutts. Mixed breed dogs on the whole tend to live longer and have healthier lives than purebreds. While many purebred breeds are prone to certain breed-specific diseases and conditions, Mutts are often heartier because they are derived from a more diverse gene pool. Genes from one component breed could cancel out disease-causing genes in another, resulting in a healthier dog.
