Description
Posted Breed: Hound / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: $350. COURTESY POST! Penguin is a 3-year old female hound mix weighing 55 lb. She’s one of the sweetest and most loving dogs. She loves belly and butt rubs, gives great kisses, and is always wagging her tail. Penguin is a fearful girl which makes life outside of her “bubble” difficult. She barks and is restless when nervous and out of her comfort zone. She’s super smart and well-behaved in her safe space, knows numerous tricks, and is crate-trained. Her family recently moved to the outskirts of Philadelphia, and they, along with a behaviorist and trainer, all believe that Penguin would lead an easier and happier life in a quieter environment. Since she’s a lovely dog with no history of aggression, we know that she’d be an excellent addition to the right family and lifestyle. Penguin has a lot of energy and needs patience when facing new situations or experiences. Peace and quiet, a consistent routine, and a safe space like a crate are essential for her success and well-being. Please email almosthome4dogsyahoo to learn more about Penguin. (Local adoptions preferred — Philadelphia and tri-state area [South Jersey and northern Delaware] only.) PLEASE READ BEFORE CONTACTING US! We are NOT a shelter: All of our dogs live in private homes with foster families. Come and meet the Almost Home dogs and their fosters at our Meet & Greet events, where you can learn more about our wonderful dogs from the people who live with them, find out which dogs are on their way and when they’ll arrive, and fill out an application to adopt or foster. We cannot adopt to homes where electric-shock fencing systems or training collars are used. For more information on the dangers of electric-shock collars, please visit banshockcollars.ca/studies.php and .hollysden/say_no_to_shock.htm (scroll down and click on the "Invisible Fencing Systems" link). We do not have an online adoption application; to request an application, e-mail us at AlmostHome4Dogsyahoo. To speed e-mail processing time, be sure to note the name of the dog you are inquiring about in the Subject line. For Meet & Greet times and locations, visit our home page, where you also will find information on our adoption process and fees. FOSTER FAMILIES ARE LIFESAVERS!! Can you open your heart and home for a few weeks to homeless shelter dog? Remember, by fostering a dog, you save TWO lives — that of your foster dog, and that of the dog who takes his place in the shelter! Come to a Meet & Greet and find out if fostering is for you — there's no reward quite like the feeling that you've saved a life ... or two!

Breed overview
Overview:
A mongrel, mutt, or mixed-breed dog, is a dog that is not the result of breeding within an existing breed or to modify or create a breed and belongs to no breed. In the United States, the term "mixed-breed" is a favored synonym over "mongrel" among many who wish to avoid negative connotations associated with the latter term. The implication that such dogs must be a mix of defined breeds may stem from an inverted understanding of the origins of dog breeds. Pure breeds have been, for the most part, artificially created from random-bred populations by human selective breeding with the purpose of enhancing desired physical, behavioral, or temperamental characteristics. Dogs that are not purebred are not necessarily a mix of such defined breeds. Therefore, among experts and fans of such dogs, "Mongrel" is still the preferred term.
