Description
Dog Breed: Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie / Mixed (long coat). Adoption Fee: 450. Hi everyone! My name is Rocket and I’m ready for my furever home. I am a 7 year old yorkie mix. I weigh about 6lbs so I fit perfectly snuggled up on your lap. My life so far has not been great but I’m thankful to be rescued and safe. As you can see I’m missing some hair. I had a very bad flea infestation and it was VERY itchy. Thank goodness they are all gone and my hair is starting to grow back! I may be timid when I first meet you but I warm up very quickly. I love cats and other dogs. Big dogs scare me at first but I eventually warm up to them too. I love people especially the kids in my foster home. I’m wonderful in my crate and I go potty outside. My foster family says I’m perfect! I hope to find my furever family soon! All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home. We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application. We strive to make sure the bios provided for our dogs are complete and accurate; we do understand that mistakes happen, however, so if you absolutely cannot find the answer to your question in the dog's bio, you can contact us for more information. We require a home visit for each dog we adopt out, so we adopt within a 2 hour radius of Dayton, OH. If you are outside of this radius, we encourage you to contact your local rescue or shelter.

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.
