Description
Dog Breed: Unknown breed (short coat). QUEEN - 1-5years old, 60 pounds, house trained, playful, nervous but warms up quickly. Queen was surrendered with her sister, Red when the owner became ill and was moving. Upon arrival to the shelter, they exhibited signs of "littermate syndrome" so would be best adopted (or fostered) separately. Queen is very nervous in the shelter setting but has shown, with just a little time, she warms up quickly, even jumping up for hugs. She has light brown fur with black mixed in along her back and face. She has warm but expressive eyes. She has an endearing quality about her. When she is comfortable and relaxed, Queen is playful and loves all kinds of toys. She can be trusted roaming free when left alone and enjoys her own dog bed for sleep. She enjoys going for walks although at the shelter she startles easily. While they have previously shown to not do well with other dogs per the owner, this could change once apart from one another so we'd recommend bringing your own dog in to meet. Queen is currently in a back kennel. When you come in, please just ask to meet her.

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.
