Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: $300. ADOPT DON'T SHOP Minnie is one of four 3 month old Hound puppies found abandoned in Modoc County recently. Fortunately, she and her siblings are none the worse for wear as they were found within hours of being left and have been well taken care of since. They all received their fist shots (DAPP and Bordetella) the day they were surrendered to the High Plateau Humane Society (on 8/29) and were also dewormed at that time. They are outdoing puppies and they have been eating heartily and playing happily in their foster home's kennel. Given their relatively small size at 3 months of age, we believe these pups will grow to be between 50 and 60 pounds. If you are interested in Minnie, or one of her siblings, please email HPHSYmail or call Jennifer at 530-708-2377 and tell us a bit about your household. These puppies have not yet been altered as we like to wait until they are six months old, so they will be adopted out on a "Foster to Adopt" basis. Their adoption fee is $300. For local adopters who can use the Modoc Veterinary Center in Alturas, Aden or Cedarville for services, this fee will include all basic shots as well as their spay/neuter and micro-chipping. For all other adopters, this fee will only include the shots they have had to date, but $100 will be refunded upon proof of spay/neuter & micro-chipping as long as the procedure is done prior to the pup turning 7 months old.

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.
