The word 'mongrel' is simply a synonym for 'mutt' or 'mix-breed'. This means that a mongrel is not a specific breed because there are literally millions of combinations of mongrel canines out there.

These are mixed breed dogs with generally no known heritage or pedigree. This is a derogatory term usually reserved for stray or feral dogs that live wild without owners; non-pedigree dogs that are a cross of two or more breeds but are owned are generally referred to as "mutts" or "mixed breed" dogs.
