Mutts are also sometimes called mongrels, crossbreeds or Heinz 57 dogs. Genetic tests are now available to determine the ancestry of many mixed breed dogs. Studies have shown that mutts typically live about 2 years longer than purebred dogs. Mutts are often better at dog sports, such as agility trials or frisbee, than their purebred counterparts.
