MCAS Heidie was picked up as a stray by the Montgomery County Animal Shelter. She was filthy, sick, flea infested, matted and had rotting teeth in her mouth with infection. She had a severe cough and was ready to die. The shelter rescue coordinator reached out to us and we said yes! She completed her 3 day stray hold, cos, 'the law, ya know' and went to our vet immediately. She was on 2 different antibiotics, cough tabs, and sent home with multiple ear medications due to both ears full of gunk.(infection) She had shut down. Lethargy and malaise were all we got our of her. She cried when we medicated her. Pain management was introduced. Then, one day, she let us medicate her without too much struggle, then the next day, it was less a struggle. She came to us for loves and pets. She started seeking affection. She soon began to play. She can hear!! She's a delightful, sweet girl who will do well with in a home where she can be your couch and bed buddy.

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.
