Description
Dog Breed: Unknown breed. IN VERMONT Meet Tanya (of Tonk & Tanya)! youtu.be/B36n49--_B4 Tanya is 11 months old, female (approx. DOB 6-25-24), 26 lbs., vetted, is or will be spayed, and micro-chipped. From her new foster mom after 3 days: "They are both very smart and have clearly done some training. Know how to sit, shake, and down without any prompting (you hold a treat and they both just start doing them until they get it. It’s very cute) Have had zero indoor accidents so far, so we would say possibly potty trained as well. Tonk definitely has more energy of the two, while Tanya can settle down more easily. They have done well with kids (subject to parents supervision). UPDATE / From Tanya's VT foster: Tanya is a fun sized little pup that’s so smart and adorable! She absolutely LOVES toys and will play even by herself throwing them all around. She does well with other dogs and knows a good amount of tricks for her young age. She can sit, shake, lay down, and come when called. She is very confident on her own and will take charge of the play if other dogs are around. She’s the perfect size for anyone looking for a bigger lap dog who’s also ready to play whenever you are! Stay tuned for more information as Tanya is a new rescue! If you are interested in adopting Tanya please fill out an Application at .Passion-4-Paws (please make sure you have the Vermont site not CT) - thanks! Please note Fosters have 1st option of Adoption. Check out her Facebook page (please "Like" us while you are there)! Disclosure: Breed labels are often incorrect: we rarely know the genetic lineage of the dogs we rescue. Many shelters and rescues specify breeds based on appearance; however, research has shown that less than 2% of a dog’s DNA determines appearance! Passion 4 Paws does not practice the use of labels pertaining to compatibility with others or dog breed. Labels such as “dog friendly” and “child friendly” should be used with caution as they often over-simplify the personalities and behavior of dogs.

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.
