Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). Mia is estimated to be about 2 years old and currently weighs about 9 1/2 pounds. She's spayed and up to date on core vaccines. Mia is a sweet little girl, extremely affectionate and loves to be by her people. She's a total cuddlebug. We're working on leash walking with Mia. She's doing ok, but not a fan and she does get frightened easily. She follows the pack out in the yard in her current foster home and we feel Mia needs a fully fenced yard and someone to continue leash walking/training within the security of the fenced yard. While Mia gets along with other dogs, she has demonstrated some food guarding so she needs either an only dog home or a home with another dog and a dog savvy adopter who can manage separate feedings and continue to work with Mia. Due to the food guarding, we can't consider a home with small children. Mia will be an exceptional and loyal companion for the right adopter(s). Interested in adopting me?

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.
