The term mutt refers to a mixed-breed dog. It derives from the word muttonhead, suggesting stupidity. The term may be used in a derogatory fashion, or in an affectionate way. A mixed-breed dog might also be called a mongrel, and it is typically the result of random breeding rather than being specifically created from purebred dogs. A mutt is usually the result of generations of mixed-breed dogs or the unplanned breeding between purebreds. Some people believe that breed is very important, and there find it important to identify the ancestors of a dog that's mixed-breed.
Why is a frankfurter in a bun called a hot dog? I have been able to find two explanations, one true and one blatantly false, and as is so often is the case the false one is by far the more interesting.ale University students used to refer to wagons selling hot frankfurters in buns as dog wagons and called the sausages 'dogs', probably as a result of conjecture as to the exact nature of the meat used in them (one of the wagons at Yale was actually nicknamed The Kennel Club).
