Description
Dog Breed: Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie (long coat). Adoption Fee: 250.00. Please go to our website for all specific information about this dog. Our info doesn't transfer over to the adoption sites. Spencer is a darling boy. We aren't sure of his age but it's somewhere between 9-12 likely. He came to us from a shelter as a stray so we have no history on him. He needed a dental badly, his fur was matted and skin wasn't healthy so he was a transfer to us to take care of his needs. He's done beautifully and is ready for someone who's looking for a side kick and buddy. He loves to roam around the yard on nice days and lounge with you during TV or book reading time. Please provide the name and phone number of your groomer on our adoption application if you apply for him. He deserves to be professionally groomed so he doesn't end up like he was at the shelter. He's been on a good canned food diet due to his pre and post op dental needs. In another couple weeks, he can likely eat kibble again. We have him on a grain free pate food to keep him skin and coat healthy and it's done wonders. His new parents should be able to keep him on a better, healthier diet. Prior to adoption, our dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, micro-chipped and parasite treated/prevented.

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.
