Description
Dog Breed: Cane Corso Mastiff (medium coat). VENUS This gem of a gal has a calm temperment. She's easy going and enjoys romping around in the exercise yard and even checks in with you especially when you call to her. What a good girl! Staff describes her as a gentle spirit who would be a great popcorn, movie and couch date. Even with her size, she has great walking skills. Miss Venus currently weighs in at 84lbs. Venus is Heartworm Positive and will need a foster home where she can recover from Heartworm Treatment. She will need to be in a calm environment over the next couple months. The shelter is not a place where she can do this so we need to get her in a home environment to start her treatment. All medical is covered under our Emergency Medical Fund. If you are interested in donating, you can contact the shelter at 707-840-9132 or online at .dogrescuers and specify that it is for the shelter's Emergence Medical Fund. If you're interested in meeting Venus, please visit humboldtgov/2658/Animal-Shelter and fill out an application to be pre-approved to make an appointment.

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.
