Description
Dog Breed: Unknown breed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 200.00. Georgia is a very sweet and playful little dog. She gets along really well with other dogs and is curious about cats. She has a lot of energy and loves to play all day, either with toys, people, cats, or other dogs. When she gets tired, she loves to cuddle. She can be wary of new people and new places but just needs time to warm up. She also uses puppy pads pretty well. Georgia O'Keeffe was transferred to Valley Humane on 7/24 from Oakland Animal Services. She had been in a home with too many other dogs! Georgia weighs 9.6 pounds. This pup arrived to VHS with a congenital malformation of her vulva. Her vulva was recessed or "hooded" and covered over by skin folds. This closed environment made her more predisposed to vulvar, vaginal and urinary tract infections. We performed a surgery to remove the overhanging skin fold and allow her vulva to be placed more normally on her body. Sutures were removed on 8/7. Do you have questions about this animal or are you ready to take the next step to 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.
