Description
Dog Breed: Unknown breed. IN NEED OF LOCAL FOSTER OR ADOPTER / AVAILABLE FOR FOSTER TO ADOPT Meet Cookie! Cookie is 9 years old, female (approx. DOB tbd), 54 lbs., vetted, is or will be spayed and micro-chipped. Poor Cookie was surrendered to the shelter at 9 years old and her stay was extended 4 times because everyone walked by her. The staff offered that Cookie is the most easy going and low energy girl once she trusts. Cookie was surrendered to us at 9 years old She is the most easy going & low energy girl. She walks gently on leash, loves to lay out in the sun, and she rarely barks outside while she watches the world go by. This girl would love nothing more than to spend her golden years curled up on the couch with a family who loves her. At her age, Cookie would likely prefer to be the only dog or may be okay with another low-energy dog. She is aloof and avoids others, and when dogs push, she will appropriately correct and ask for space. Stay tuned for more information as Cookie is a new rescue! If you are interested in adopting Cookie please fill out an Application at .Passion-4-Paws (please make sure you have the Vermont site not CT) - thanks! Please note Fosters have 1st option of Adoption. Check out her Facebook page (please "Like" us while you are there)! Disclosure: Breed labels are often incorrect: we rarely know the genetic lineage of the dogs we rescue. Many shelters and rescues specify breeds based on appearance; however, research has shown that less than 2% of a dog’s DNA determines appearance! Passion 4 Paws does not practice the use of labels pertaining to compatibility with others or dog breed. Labels such as “dog friendly” and “child friendly” should be used with caution as they often over-simplify the personalities and behavior of dogs.

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.
