Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (long coat). Wesley (NY) is a male small Terrier mix rescued in New York. Our veterinary partner estimates that Wesley is 7 years old at the time of intake in May 2022. Wesley is good with people and other dogs. We don't know how Wesley got into the horrific condition he was in; all we know is that Wesley's owner passed away and he ended up at the kill shelter from which we rescued him. This very sweet boy was dirty, matted, had overgrown nails and he could hardly walk. Wesley has already gone to the spa, and it turns out that this matted, filthy, bundle of fur is actually a handsome prince! Wesley is now at our NY specialty vet where he is being evaluated to determine his overall condition. Wesley has a Grade 2 heart murmur which does not require medical treatment. If you are looking for a lot of love in a small package, Wesley would like you to consider him! Please apply online to adopt Wesley (NY) at .rescuedogsrocknyc. RDR's adoption fees include the cost of spay/neuter/microchip at an RDR-approved facility, whether completed before adoption or if deferred because the pet is too young or has a medical issue. All pets are also current on age-appropriate vaccines at the time of adoption. Given technical constraints on this database, this pet's location may not be as listed here. We can, however, provide transport support for pets in foster at a considerable distance from the adopter.

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.
