Description
Dog Breed: Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie. Adoption Fee: $800.00. Scroll down to see more pictures of this dog. Tortellini is available for adoption. She is 4 years old and weighs 7 lbs. Her adoption fee is $800.00. Tortellini is a 4 yr old, 7 lb little Yorkie girl. With energy to spare, she attacks each day as a gift she can fully enjoy. Having been a stray at one point in her life, it’s as if she really appreciates what she has now. Just 6 weeks since her car accident pre-fostering, she is all healed. She eats with gusto, is pee pad trained (but still loves to go outside to potty), she loves to play with toys, loves to romp around with our two other SAY rescues and will jump into your lap whether you’re ready or not. Tortellini is a mountain goat on the furniture and pretty much fearless while balancing on the back of the couch. She sleeps in a small enclosure and is quiet through the night. Grooming is a challenge since she will immediately roll on her back when the brush comes out… but eventually lets you finish. She is wary of new people and will bark quite loudly until a friendly hand is offered… then all is well. She is very interested in the other dogs’ dishes but has been warned off numerous times by our male Yorkie so we hope she’s getting the message. Tortellini will probably be fine as an only dog or in a multi-dog environment. She walks well on a leash. We are awaiting an indication as to her spay status since the vet’s can’t tell. Tortellini is staying with Mary Anne and Michael in New Canaan, CT.

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.
