DANA NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Dana Best Guess for Breed: Scruffy terrier mix Best Guess for Age: 2 years as of June 2025 SEX: Female Approximate Weight: 29.4 lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen her with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! Currently Living at: Puerto Rico shelter; needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to get out! Special adoption considerations: Dogs from Puerto Rico have a major transition to go through when they arrive and will need humans who are committed to helping them acclimate to a completely new environment. Giving Lara opportunities to interact with other dogs here (doggie playdates, welcoming resident dog in the home, doggie daycare, etc.) will help her so much - they will show her the ropes! Dana is Looking For: Dana is a pretty awesome pup! She was pregnant when she was rescued from a hoarding case, and gave birth to ELEVEN puppies while in the care of a Puerto Rico rescue. This is what the rescue said about her: "Dana is very nurturing, both with dogs and socially around people. She is not shy, likes attention, not a doubt, after caring for 11 puppies! Dana would do well in a home with other dogs. " This sweet pup has gone through quite a bit in her young life. She is oh so eager to get her fresh start, to know she's safe and loved and under her roof, to know where she belongs. In exchange, she promises adoring gazes and all the love and loyalty in her heart. What do you say? Are you Dana's fresh start? Is she the one you see by your side? What My Foster Says About Me: We will update this once she has spent some time in foster care. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training.

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.
