They’re known for forming deep attachments to their chosen person and often thrive in environments where structure, training, and companionship are consistent. Ariel embodies all of this and more—she’s clever, playful, and when she trusts you, incredibly devoted. Ariel’s Story & Personality: Ariel is a little dog with a big spirit. She knows what she wants—and she isn’t afraid to let you know! While she is house trained and does well in her crate (especially when there are treats involved), Ariel needs a structured environment and a confident female leader to help her feel safe and secure. She adores chasing balls, running freely in a secure yard, and following a clear, predictable routine. But she also values her personal space—if her cues are ignored, she may nip or bite to communicate her discomfort. For this reason, she’s not suited for homes with children or inexperienced dog owners. Give her time (usually a month or more) to adjust, and Ariel will show her loving, loyal, and playful side. Ariel’s Perfect Home: A confident, experienced woman who understands dog behavior and leadership A quiet, structured home with a predictable routine A securely fenced yard for her to play and explore A home without other pets or children Someone patient and willing to give her time to bond and build trust Ready to Make Ariel Yours? Ariel may be small, but she’s full of personality, intelligence, and heart. With the right match, she will become a fiercely loyal, loving companion who will thrive under the guidance of someone who understands and respects her boundaries.

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.
