Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). Petuka is a tiny 10-month old terrier mix from Mexico. She has white and tan wiry fur with adorable tan ears that frame her tiny face. She has big brown eyes that she uses to study everything. When she first came into rescue, she was very scared and shut down. But over time, she has blossomed and shown us her personality. She is loyal and will follow "her person" around all day and then snuggle that person in bed all night. She will happily sleep in her kennel, but she prefers a human's bed to sleep in. She is shy when meeting new people and can sometimes bark at them, but quickly comes out of her shell. She loves playing with dogs she has gotten to know but can be suspicious of new ones. Once she gets to know them, she loves a good play session. She loves going on long walks. Petuka lives with three kids ages 8-12 and does great with them but she is scared of smaller kids and toddlers. Her favorite thing to do is lay in the sun and get belly rubs. She does well in the car, often sleeping through 3+ hour trips to the cabin, and is nearly potty trained. When she goes outside on a schedule, she does not have accidents. Petuka is a special girl who has come so far and is excited to find her own forever family to love. Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, Prepaid microchip, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue.

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.
