Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 300. Meet Ricky! Ricky is about a 11 month old lab mix looking for his forever home. Ricky is a very very special boy, he grew up in the shelter as a puppy most of his life. He didn’t even have a name and was almost forgotten about. Luckily, he was rescued. Now it’s time for him to fly the coop after so much progress. He knows sit, down, and paw! Also is potty and crate trained. He absolutely loves to greet people with his toy, just so he can be told what a good boy he is. He can be shy at first, but the second he realizes you are there to love him, he will love you back more than you know. Ricky deserves the perfect family. To help with his confidence and play time, a young playful dog will be required to help guide him. Please consider adopting this perfect angel. The adoption fee of $300 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.

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.
