The area she's from has been hit hard over the years by war and has been left with an incredible number of animals on the streets. This little girl was found at just one month of age, taken in by a rescue, and somehow found her way to us at nearly one year of age. She has been well cared for along the way but now she really needs a loving home and family of her own. After a recent vet visit, her veterinarian reached out to say just how very sweet she is. She's timid and takes time to settle in and get to know you, but once she does, she loves the affection of her people. She is currently in the northeast and is living with another dog in her foster home. It's an adjustment only because she's finally learning what a home and family feels like and she'd like it all for herself - however, our foster and trainer are both working with her to feel secure and really enjoy the other dog in the home. Buttercup is learning what nice long walks are all about, a warm bed, and a full belly, and she's enjoying every minute of the lesson! As with all new pets, Buttercup will need time to decompress and adjust to a new family and new surroundings. She will add pure joy and affection to anyone's life willing to give her the change at a new beginning! Applications can be submitted through lgarinc/adoption-application/.

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.
