Description
Dog Breed: Unknown breed (medium coat). Meet Eileen – The Three-Legged Wonder Pup! Looking for a dog who’s got 90% of the legs but 110% of the love? Allow us to introduce Eileen (yes, we see the pun – and no, she doesn’t lean. Much). Eileen is a one-year-old, 30-pound mystery mix — part dog, part heart-melter. She was found outside an Alabama shelter with a pretty gnarly leg injury, so she had one of her hind legs removed. But don't worry — she didn’t read the memo that she’s “disabled.” She runs, plays, and chases squirrels like she's auditioning for the canine Olympics (Squirrel Sprint division). She is a little shy at first — picture that awkward kid at the school dance hugging the wall — but give her time, a little patience, and preferably another dog BFF, and she’ll be boogying into your heart in no time. Seriously, Eileen loves other dogs and does way better with a confident fur-sibling to show her the ropes (and the snacks). She’s house-trained, crate-trained, has never had an accident in her crate (model citizen!), and is an expert in the fine art of “recall.” That means when you call, she actually comes. We know, we were shocked too. Eileen isn’t into car rides — at all. If you're looking for a road trip buddy or a drive-thru french fry stealer, she’s probably not your girl. She’s more of a homebody who loves long walks, epic games of tug-of-war, and snuggles that last longer than your Netflix binge. She will 100% try to sleep in your bed. She has no shame and zero concept of personal space. She does well with older kids who understand her shy nature, but she's not a fan of cats or anything small and furry that runs — she has a high prey drive and would prefer not to share her home with potential “chase targets.” If you're looking for a slightly wobbly, hilariously lovable, incredibly loyal cuddle machine with a bit of a shy streak and a whole lot of heart — Eileen might just be your soulmate. Adopt Eileen. She's got three legs, one mission: to love you fiercely. Included in each adoption: age appropriate shots, microchip, and spay/neuter surgery. Prior to meeting or adopting any of our wonderful animals, we ask that you please fill out our online application: form.jotform/223268341300041 We are a 100% volunteer organization and have to work other jobs to pay the bills. Please give us up to 48 hours to respond. Submission of an adoption application does not obligate you to adopt nor does it guarantee approval. We look forward to hearing from you. We are located in Pensacola, Fl. Local applications considered first, but will consider out of state applications if transport can be arranged. Please note all animals in the home must be altered, up to date on vaccines, and be on heartworm prevention. We understand there are some special cases and will take those into consideration.

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.
