Description
Posted Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Introducing Andy, the charming Terrier mix who's ready to wiggle his way into your heart! This handsome fella is about 1 year old, sports a striking red and white coat, and weighs a cuddly 43 pounds. And we mean cuddly, he thinks he is a lap dog! Andy's playful spirit shines brightest during fetch sessions, where he eagerly chases after toys, occasionally bringing them back for a round of tug-of-war or dropping them at your feet with a wagging tail. He's a pro at sitting for treats, though his treat catching skills are a work in progress but hey, practice makes perfect! When he's not romping around the yard or perfecting his toy retrieval techniques, Andy loves nothing more than snuggling up close for some quality cuddle time. He is very sweet and affectionate. He's a fan of gazing out the window, admiring the world passing by, and he'll happily accompany you on leisurely strolls, walking like a true gentleman on a leash. This whiskered wonder has an endearing hop-dance that he breaks out when excitement strikes or when he's in hot pursuit of the vacuum cleaner. With his affectionate nature and playful demeanor, Andy is sure to bring joy and laughter to any home lucky enough to welcome him. While his interactions with cats are unknown, Andy has been good with other dogs and kids that he has met. Andy is a smart pup. He is crate trained and enjoys having it as his own cozy retreat space. Andy is mostly house trained, he is still mastering the art of signaling to his humans when nature calls, so he has had a couple accidents. Despite those accidents, he thrives when taken out regularly and is eager to receive praise/treat for a job well done. With a little patience and consistent bathroom breaks, he's sure to catch on quickly. If you're ready to open your heart and home to this delightful doggo, Andy is doing a hop-dance meet you! Andy is available for adoption on or after March 24, 2024. Paws Across Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA 15144. KL#16182

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.
