Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Mixed (short coat). Everything Nice! MEET SPICE! Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice is the perfect description of this little lady. Initially found wandering alone in a cemetery in WV, Spice was brought to the local shelter. Another rescue saw her plight and pulled her where she was put into a foster home and got the love and care that she deserves. Unfortunately, that rescue has since closed and Spice became a Tara’s House dog. Spice is approximately eighteen months young and is a healthy mixed breed girl. We see possible signs of German Shepherd and/or Rottweiler, although she is smaller than those breeds typically are. She weighs ~40 lbs and thinks she is convinced she is a lap dog! Spice is very intelligent, and has learned several commands like “Sit, Down, Off and Leave It”. Spice is crate trained and potty trained. When it's time for bed she'll take three treats, please! One for each paw shake and the last in her room to keep under her pillow. She is eager to learn and will respond well to positive reinforcement. She is enthusiastic and loves to please her humans. Her other favorite pastimes include playing with toys and kids while running around in the yard. When she comes back inside all she wants to do is snuggle and give kisses. She wants to be in whatever room her humans are occupying, even in bed if that’s ok by you. Spice will adapt to whatever schedules you have whether it's week day or weekend. Spice is a great balance of joy and affection and would make a wonderful addition to any family, especially those with children and other dogs. She has a wonderful playful side and loves to stay active. So if you're looking for a baby Spice, a sporty Spice or a posh Spice look no further. Your Spice girl is here waiting to love you. Spice’s adoption donation fee is $450, which includes spay/neuter, routine vetting and a microchip.

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.
