Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Adoptable in: MA Good with dogs: Yes, with proper intros Good with cats: Yes, dog-savvy cats Good with kids: Likely yes, dog savvy kids Crate trained: No House trained: Yes Bentley is a laid-back, affectionate pup who’s happiest when he’s curled up next to his people. He loves belly rubs, pets, and just being part of the action in a calm and predictable home. Bentley does well with other dogs but may appreciate a little space when it comes to sharing his immediate surroundings. Because he’s shown interest in small animals outside, a home with dog-savvy cats would likely be the best fit. Bentley should live in a home with older children who understand how to respect a dog’s space and can give him time to feel comfortable. He’s fully house trained and has done great being left home alone for extended periods without issue. While he’s not currently crate trained, he settles down easily when left alone and will nap the day away. Bentley knows his name and responds well to basic commands like "sit" and "down." With his love of food and calm temperament, he’s a great candidate for continued training. He can be a little hesitant in new situations and benefits from consistency and patience, but with the right support, he builds trust and settles in beautifully. *Bentley is part of our Medical Foster-to-Adopt Program as he is on a daily medication.

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.
