Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). Meet Oscar! This adorable terrier mix is the perfect pup-mate. Oscar is about 3 years old and originally came from Yakima. He has really settled in and come out of his shell! Oscar is fully house-trained AND crate-trained. He even tucks himself in at bedtime! He loves to sleep in and lay in his crate. He would do really well as a travel companion because he really does hold his potty for a long time. He is an AMAZING walking buddy - seriously the best boy on leash. He loves to take walks but is not overly hyper about it. He wants to be friends with every dog he meets (social butterfly!) He has done great meeting other dogs outside and is playful. He has met one submissive dog inside a home and can be a bit territorial, so he should probably be the only dog in the family. He did so well chilling at an outdoor restaurant while his humans ate. He could be a great dinner date! He has the most adorable yawns, loves to nuzzle, and follow you around. He follows me into the kitchen and lays down. Oscar is learning that human touch is a good thing, but he can grumble/growl - even as he's nuzzling. The trainer does *not* believe this is aggression or fear; Oscar just needs time to get to know you and I can help you with the tactics we're using to help Oscar feel more comfortable. We think you'll love Oscar once you meet him!! Oscar would thrive in an adult-only home. Oscar is vaccinated, chipped and neutered. He also is getting a thorough dental. His adoption fee is $450 We cover the medical to prepare the pet for adoption and the adopt donations go directly to cover those costs and range from $295-$495. Thank you for stepping up to save a life! To expedite to meet with this dog, please go to our site at .savinggreatanimals and fill out an application. We look at the first applications to arrive, so we hope to hear from you soon!

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.
