New dog this fall? October is Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, and mixed breeds have needs too.
Start with what you can see: size, coat, energy and build. A DNA test can fill in the rest, and many pet parents use one to learn which breeds are in the mix. Then ask the same four questions we ask about every dog: breed, environment, lifestyle and core nutrition.
Every dog gets the same careful look, pedigree or not. Tell us your dog's mix in the comments, and explore PeakTails: https://kalahealth.com/collections/peaktails?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=oct_mixed-breed
