Description
Dog Breed: Poodle (unknown type). 🐾 Nellie - The Spunky Poodle Mix Who Loves Belly Rubs & Playtime! MUST GO TO A HOME WITH ANOTHER DOG Meet Nellie, estimated 1-2 years old , 12-lb Poodle mix with a playful spirit, sweet snuggles, and the cutest little personality! She's full of puppy energy, loves playing with her doggy and kitty foster siblings, and thrives in a home where she's got a confident canine companion to romp around with. 🧠 Smart & Ready to Learn: Nellie is potty trained (she'll even let you know when she needs to go out!), crate trained, leash trained, and doing great with both dogs and cats. She's friendly and affectionateloves walks, belly rubs, couch cuddles, and being wherever her people are. She's currently enjoying two daily walks and plenty of backyard time. 🏡 The Ideal Home: Nellie would do best in a home: With another playful, well-balanced dog That understands she's still learning some manners and would benefit from basic training That's patient and experienced enough to help her continue to build confidence and boundaries She hasn't been exposed to children, and while she likes cats, she may chase if they run (she thinks it's a game!). 📝 A Few Quirks: She can be a bit overstimulated at times and tries to play "boss," so structure and consistency will help her thrive. She may show some mild food guarding at first, so feeding separately is recommended. She may alert at night to animals outside the househer foster crates her at night to help her settle. 💇‍♀️ Grooming Needs: As a Poodle mix, Nellie will need regular grooming and coat maintenance to prevent matting every 4-5 weeks, neglecting this is very painful for dog with this coat. Nellie is spayed, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccines, dewormed, and on flea prevention. ⸻ Ready to add this spunky sweetheart to your life?

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.
