Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Mixed. Her name is Shampoo but you can call her Shammy! Shammy is a gentle 10-year-old German Shepherd mix who recently found herself at the Rockwall Animal Shelter after the heartbreaking loss of her owner. Despite the sudden change, she has remained calm, observant, and quietly affectionate with the shelter staff. She's a beautiful soul with a lot of love left to give and is looking for a peaceful, loving home to spend her golden years. Because she came to us under uncertain circumstances, we're not sure how she does with other dogs, cats, or children so slow, respectful introductions will be important. Her adoption fee is $125. She is spayed, microchipped, current on her rabies vaccination, basic boosters to date and heartworm negative. If you have room in your heart and home for a sweet senior who just wants to feel safe and loved again, come meet Shammy. She may be older, but the bond you build with her will be timeless. All animals, unless otherwise noted in their description, are at 1825 Airport Rd. in Rockwall, TX. Hours of operation are Monday-Friday 9 am to 6 pm and Saturdays 9 am to 5 pm. For questions, please call 972-771-7750 ext. 2 or email infoRockwallAdoptions. IMPORTANT NOTICE: All shelter animals are required by Texas state law to be spayed/neutered. RAC completes this procedure at the age of 12 weeks. If you are adopting a pet under the age of 12 weeks or an animal that has not yet been spayed or neutered, you will be required to return the pet to our facility on the agreed upon date set at the time of adoption. This policy is non-negotiable and violation of this health code is a criminal offense.

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.
