Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Say hello to Dodger! An excitable young lady with the most adorable flappy ears. She is about 1-2 years old and weighs 41 lb. Dodger loves to eat good food and play tug with toys. She responds well to cues and loves her familiar people. She's looking for a home who can give her the physical and mental exercise this young lady needs. Dodger was found running on the highway in Hartford, Connecticut and eventually found her way into our care. We don't know what she's been through in her short life and she is a little nervous with new people and new scenarios. Dodger will need an experienced dog owner who is willing to continue her training and build up her trust. Dodger is currently on anxiety medication to help her settle in and make her transitions a little easier. We're taking it easy and don't quite yet know how she will do with dogs and cats long term. Facebook video of Dodger out on a walk! We will continue to update with more information and progress as she settles in at her foster's! If interested, please apply to adopt at .TTRRescue or email TTRRescuegmail with any questions.

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.
