Concurred with mongrel (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cur

'mongrel' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'concurred with' is the wordplay.
'with' indicates a hidden word.
'CUR' can be found hidden inside 'concurred'.

(Other definitions for cur that I've seen before include "Worthless mongrel" , "Worthless or bad-tempered dog" , "Mongrel - coward" , "Mangy dog" , "Aggressive mongrel" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
