Description
Dog Breed: Cattle Dog / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: 275.00. This pretty Penny is patiently waiting for her forever family to find her. We'll never know what happened before she was abandoned & became a Diamond but we do know she had someone who loved her at some point. Penny is a smart, loveable girl & came to us with a head start on training; she knows commands like down, sit, stay and off. Penny's crate is her "safe base" and comfort zone. Her foster dad will often find her in there when she needs a nap or just some alone time. She doesn't have to be crated when she's alone but you'll want to make sure everyone's shoes are put away! Our girl has a bit of a shoe addiction, lol. Penny's ideal home will be able to provide the routine, consistency and patience she needs to thrive. She'd enjoy a fenced in yard to run around and play in but as an adult dog, daily walks and playtime would also meet her exercise needs. She doesn't get along with cats or other dogs but she loves all humans! We're recommending only older, respectful children 10 years and up due to Penny's love of collecting & sometimes resource guarding items that don't belong to her (shoes, socks, etc.). We don't know for sure but with as much as she enjoys searching & finding "treasures", Penny might be a good candidate for nose work or increasingly challenging dog treat puzzles. After all, girls just wanna have fun! If you're looking for a wonderful companion to make your house feel like a home, please fill out an application to find out if this sweetie is the "lucky" Penny for you! ► We do not adopt to Canada due to border restrictions and breed-specific legislation ► We adopt & foster locally only ; within an approximately 55 mile radius of Lockport, NY 14094 USA Adoption donation includes Spay/Neuter, Vaccinations, deworming & flea treatment.

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.
