Each day, we will be featuring one "luvmutt" sent in by our readers.
If you have a mixed breed dog, then share your luvmutt with the world!
Please send an email to submissions@luvmutt.com that contains 3 to 5 photos along with your dog's name, hometown, and fun facts such as nicknames or favorite toys. Then check back each day to see all the luvmutts!

Scout is a terrier mix from Washington, D.C. He was taken in by the Humane Society when his owner didn't want him anymore. Luckily, he was adopted by the same generous family that adopted Hogan (luvmutt from 12/21/06). Now he's "landed his butt in butter," as Daddy says.
Look! I got a Bobo!
Please make it stop.
I hear F.A.O. Schwartz is going to make a new stuffed animal with my face!
I love Hogan, but sometimes he tries to eat my face.
Roxie is a shepherd/retriever mix from McLean, Virginia. She was dropped off at the Humane Society of Concord, North Carolina with her sister when they were a year old. Her sister got adopted right away, but Roxie had to wait around for several months. Her adoptive Mommy, who was a volunteer at the shelter, thought she was "such a cool dog" and took her home. Roxie moved from North Carolina three months ago, which was very exciting because she got to sit in the front seat of the car. She lives with three cats and likes to eat their food when no one is looking. When Roxie plays with other dogs, no matter how small they are, she always tries to get them to chase her. And when she goes for walks, little kids always ask if she's a fox, hence the nickname "Foxy Roxie."
Sometimes even I think I look like a fox.
This is me standing guard at my house. A very important job.
Don't you just want to hug me? Yeah. I knew it.
I love to sleep in this chair even though some people say I'm too big for it. I don't know what they're talking about.
Seamus is a 3-year-old lab mix from Cincinnati, Ohio. He loves to fling his squeaky toys around the house, bark at the neighbors' cats, and play with his pals at the local dog park. He has many nicknames, including Mr. Prancy Pants and Stinkbomb. Seamus has epilepsy, but after a year's worth of tests, treatments, and visits to the ER, he has been seizure-free for four months thanks to a wonderful specialist vet.
This is me in my handsome red neckerchief. I think it suits me.
I love a good nap in front of the multimedia cabinet.
I have no idea who this cat is, but I like his pillow.
Ahhhhhhhhhh.
