Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Mixed (medium coat). ***Peanut is currently at a foster home in Georgia and available for adoption through SoCo Rescue. She is scheduled to be at the Tractor Supply in Ringoes, NJ for our adoption event over the July 12-13 weekend. An application for her adoption can be submitted at socorescue (no need to "Register" or "Login"). Questions about Peanut and/or our adoption policy should be submitted to socorescue8gmail; please do not call the rescue's number.*** Peanut was among a number of dogs that a neighboring city's animal control had impounded from a home after Peanut's owner was deemed as having too many dogs. Peanut had recently had a litter of 6 pups at that time, sadly, only two of those pups survived and were adopted through SoCo Rescue. We were able to rescue Peanut and her pups just one day before they all would have been euthanized by the city's shelter. Peanut is a sweet and affectionate dog who loves being around people. She has a very calm and laid-back personality, making her a wonderful companion. At her former home and while in the foster home, Peanut was around other dogs, but seems to have decided that she prefers being the only dog at a home. She did interact very well with the cats at her foster home, showing little to no interest in them. Peanut has been fully vetted and is currently up-to-date on all vaccinations, de-worming and monthly preventative care. While she was heartworm positive when she first arrived, Peanut did receive treatment for her heartworms and is now free and clear of them.

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.
