Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (long coat). Karmela is a Terrier (maybe some schnauzer?) mix, who is approximately 6-years-old. Karmela lived with the same owners since she was a puppy, but her dad died in February, then her mom passed away in May. She is SUCH a sweet girl, very passive. She plays with her foster sister but ignores the bigger dogs in her foster home. She does fine with cats and older kids. I think she'd be fine with well-mannered smaller kids too (no concerns with biting, but rambunctious kids might make her anxious at first). Karmela would really love a home where someone is with her most the day since that's what she was used to for so long. Karmela is learning to walk on a leash and has figured out car rides aren't scary. We are working with her on housetraining: she seems to be 60% there. She loves roaming around foster mom's fenced yard, too. She is up to date on her shots, on HW/flea/tick meds, and spayed. She recently had a dental, too If you would like to give Karmela the loving forever home she deserves, please fill out an application at .northstarpets and ask for KARMELA TX!

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.
