Description
Dog Breed: Cane Corso Mastiff (short coat). Words from her foster dad: Faith is a Cane Corso who was surrendered to the shelter due to no fault of her own after living her whole life with one family. She is five years old (born Jan. 2020). She weighs about 90 pounds. I took her home to foster for a while to help her recover from having her “cherry eyes” corrected. She did fine and now she needs to find a new home. Faith is a very affectionate and sweet girl. She loves treats and going for walks. I had to keep her in one room by herself because of my other dogs, and I could tell she really wanted to be out and about in the house. In fact her previous owner said she was allowed free in the house when no one was home. She does pretty well on a leash and in the car, and has been around children, although due to her size and energy it might be best if she went to a home with no small children. She also would do best as an only pet. I have to take Faith back to the shelter soon and I really hope her new person finds her before she spends too much more time in the shelter. It’s a stressful place for her and she really deserves to be in her own home. If you have any questions about Faith or want to meet her, call me, Bob, at 757-237-2430.

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.
