Description
Dog Breed: Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie / Terrier / Mixed. Meet Rafiki! This 5-year-old Yorkie mix is stealing hearts with his wild style — from his bald nose and tail to his adorably crooked underbite and crazy teeth, Rafiki totally lives up to his name. He might just be part baboon... and 100% original. Rafiki is settling in well to his foster home and he almost fully housebroken as long as you pay attention to his clues. He is crate trained. He loves to sleep in bed or is also content sleeping on a dog bed. He was very shy and slow to warm up at first. But after about a week, he really started to come around. He's a very mild mannered and easy dog who awesome with other dogs, cats, and even kids! He’s looking for a patient, low-pressure home where he can settle in at his own pace. If you love quirky, one-of-a-kind dogs with a little bit of mystery, Rafiki might be your guy! <br /> <br /> Okie Pet Rescue <br /> okiepetrescuegmail okiepetrescue <br /> An application must be completed and approved after a comprehensive review.

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.
