A purebred dog is one whose parents dating back many generations are the same breed, and it generally has papers. A mongrel is kind of the opposite to this. A dog whose parents are purebreds but of different breeds (like crossing a purebred Chihuahua with a purebred Fox Terrier) is a crossbred. A dog whose parents are mixed breeds and where it is very difficult to determine one dominant influencing breed is called a mongrel or a mutt. Calling somebody a mongrel - meaning mixed-breed street dog, dirty blood etc - was once a very bad insult. Now it's more likely to be a friendly term.

Why do people call mongrels 'Heinz 57's'?
Well... Mongrels have different breeds of parents. E.g. A labradoodle has a Labradoor mum and a poodle dad, vice versa. And that labradoors dad could have been a collie! A bit like a strange family tree!! But the reason we call them 'Heinz 57's' is because Heinz has lots of products. Like ketchup, spagetti, meetballs and even sweets! But think of it this way; the spagetti's dad could have been the meetballs and the ketchup could have been the mum! Not really... of course.......
Why are mongrels often healthier than pedigree dogs?
If two parents are genetically similiar, they will be prone to the same flaws, inadaquicies genetic defects etc, which will leave off-spring vulnerable and without chance to better itself, when two dissimilar parents come together, there is an increased chance of the offspring getting the best of both parents, although they may inherit some flaws, they have a better chance of winning this gene pool lottery
