Description
Dog Breed: Yellow Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). Nicole’s story began in the woods of Harris County, where she gave birth to her puppies—pregnant, alone, and doing everything she could to protect them. Eventually, she started to trust a person she thought would help her. Instead, she and her newborn pups were taken to the county pound—where, in Houston, that’s often a one-way trip for a momma dog and her litter. That is not rescue. Nicole ended up on the euthanasia list, likely only spared because she was still nursing her pups. We got to her just in time, and now she and her babies are safe, loved, and thriving in foster care. Nicole is about 40–45lbs, with soft light brown fur and the most soulful eyes. She’s incredibly gentle and sweet with people and loves being around children. She gives the softest kisses and wags her tail with quiet joy, as if to say thank you for every bit of kindness. She’s still learning how to walk on a leash, but she’s catching on quickly and enjoys her short strolls. She’s tidy in her crate, calm in the home, and is soaking up every ounce of love and comfort she’s never known before. One of her favorite things? Cuddling up with her pups while soft instrumental music plays—they all fall asleep together, finally able to rest knowing they are safe. Nicole has poured her heart into raising her babies. Now it’s her turn to be someone’s baby. Foster or adopt Nicole, and give this gentle, grateful momma the life she’s always deserved.

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.
