How to use "Mongrel" in context?
Word Definition
mongrel - a hybrid animal; especially, a cross between a dog and a donkey
Mongrels are often thought of as undesirable creatures, but in reality, they make great pets. Mongrels, or crossbreeds, are typically the result of a dog and donkey mating.

Although mongrels are not always easily adopted, they are a deserving breed.
