Description
Posted Breed: Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Rocky was rescued from a dangerous situation, and came into the shelter very underweight, heartworm positive, and covered in sores. He is a very sweet boy who is around 3 years old. He likes other dogs and ignored the cats when he arrived at the shelter. He's been getting the care he needs at the shelter to put on weight and take care of his open sores. He was only 43 pounds when he came into the shelter, but he has already put on 13 pounds, and his coat is getting shinier. He’s a friendly, playful guy who will greet you with a toy and wagging tail when he sees you. He’s ready to be in his forever home getting the love and attention he deserves.

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.
