Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed (short coat). This precious little girl was found emaciated and filthy, and all we can think is that she had been kept locked in a crate or tiny area for months if not years. Her coat was stained, and her feet were burned from urine. All it has taken is three weeks for her to appreciate food, and attention, and good vet, care, and look at her now! She is adorable, learning to be house trained, and loves being with other dogs. Food is still a passion for her, and we are helping her learn to eat slowly, so the food can do its business and bring her nourishment as she needs it. Please consider adopting precious little girl, who only wants love and attention more than anything else.

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.
