Description
Dog Breed: Poodle (unknown type) / Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). Dixi was rescued from a hoarding situation with her 2 small pups. Unfortunately, one didn’t make it, but she was a doting mother to her remaining pup Paul. Dixi was fiercely loyal to her pup and her pack (the other dogs we rescued from the same place). We think she is about 3 years old and has probably endured lots of litters. Now she’s living her best life with us. Dixi loves getting lots of pets and will shower you with kisses. She’s very easy going and has easily integrated into our pack of bigs and littles. She also loves to eat. She’s packed on a lot of much needed weight (maybe a bit too much), but a nursing mother needed that. Unfortunately food insecurity is a real, and very sad, thing with these dogs from the hoarding situation. But they no longer have to worry about when their next meal is coming, if at all. Dixi is good with dogs of all sizes and people plus she's housetrained and crate trained. If you'd like to give Dixi a loving home, please fill out an adoption application at .northstarpets & ask for her by name!

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.
