Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Jolene is a super friendly girl. She is a mixed breed (?) at 2 years and 6 months. She is a perfect size weighing 46 pounds (All the better to hug). She has a short black and white coat and such a friendly face to match her personality. Her family surrendered her because they were moving and could not take her with them. She has proven to be super friendly with dogs and kids. It is unknown if she has met a cat. Jolene does have a funny quirk: She loves rocks! Yes rocks! She has a rock baby. She will pick up a special rock, carry it around, set it down and then curl up with it. She is working on her crate and leash training but has successfully completed her house training. Daily walks will be a good opportunity to check out her leash skills as well as socialization skills. It will be a new world to her with all the new sights, smells, sounds, and people along her walk. It is important to remember that although Jolene is housetrained, accidents can occur while adjusting to a new home environment. She will also appreciate free time in the back yard. Keeping her mind active with activities that provide physical and mental stimulation will prevent boredom. Jolene will want to be with a family that will give lots of affection and attention to her. Interested? * When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine. They adjust much better when their owners are committed to providing consistency and stability.

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.
