Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Dogs don't get any sweeter than little Miss Jackie! Jackie is estimated to be around 4 years old and is an affectionate girl whom we all have fallen head over heels in love with. Jackie is the perfect mix of playful and chill energy for someone who wants a walking buddy who also will never turn down some cuddles. She is a well-mannered girl who could be a great pup for a first-time owner, or someone who wants a dog well past the puppy phase of life. Jackie currently weighs about 8lbs, but is slightly underweight. Jackie came to us from a local shelter. Her owner has passed away, and no other family members were able to take her in. She was nervous at the shelter, but has really blossomed in foster care and has shown us how resilient dogs can be. We have so many wonderful things to say about Jackie! She is such a lovebug who will greet you every morning with a wagging tail. She loves all people, but does seem to have a slight preference for women and quickly bonded with her foster mom. She is the perfect work-from-home buddy who will happily chill with you during work hours and make sure you get outside at least once a day for a stroll around the neighborhood. She also loves to play with toys and is a fetch master. She is a great little house guest and is a quiet girl who could do well in an apartment with appropriate exercise. She could be a great companion for a retired person or couple. Jackie has done well living with other smaller dogs, but could also do well as a spoiled only pup. We haven't seen Jackie around cats, but she may do well with dog-savvy cats after a slow introduction and with proper supervision. We haven't seen Jackie around kids, but she may do well with respectful older kids. Jackie is housetrained and quickly picked up how to use a dog door. She has done well being left free roaming for short periods while her foster parents are gone, and is the type of dog that wants to sleep in bed with you. Jackie is such a wonderful little girl, and she can't wait to find her fur-ever family. If you think that might be you, submit an adoption application today! Jackie's adoption fee is $250.

Puppies will be current on the vaccinations appropriate to their age. The adopter is responsible for additional vaccinations as necessary after the adoption.

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.
