Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Hound / Mixed. Meet Papaya! The Sweetest Little Fruit! Looking for a puppy who is equal parts playful fun and professional-level cuddler? Meet Papaya, or Paya for short, a 9-week-old Shepherd and Hound mix who is ready to wiggle her way into your heart! Papaya is a true delight. Her favorite activities include pouncing on her favorite toys, exploring the yard, and then collapsing into a happy, sleepy pile of puppy snuggles. She has a loving and gentle nature that makes her a joy to be around. If you're looking for a furry friend to curl up with on the couch, Papaya is your girl! She's already making fantastic progress on her puppy training. Papaya is working hard on potty training and has recently started walking to the back door to let her people know it's time to go out—what a smart cookie! She's also getting the hang of crate training. While she sometimes has a moment of typical puppy protest, she settles down quickly and will even walk right into her crate when she's tired and ready for a nap. Papaya is a social butterfly who gets along wonderfully with her furry friends. She loves playing with other dogs and would be thrilled to have a canine sibling. She's also been great with the cats in her foster home, mostly choosing to give them their space. Papaya is searching for a patient family committed to continuing her training and socialization. If you're ready for a lifetime of happy wiggles and the best snuggles, apply to make Papya part of your family today! Available for adoption 8/2.

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.
