Her adoption fee is $700.00. Introducing your new best friend, Nellie! Despite what this girl has been through, she is happy-go-lucky and just wants a family to call her own. From the first day she arrived at our home, she instantly clung to us. Nellie is estimated to be 4.5 years old and was found as a stray. She has been spayed and is now up to date on all vaccinations. She got a clean bill of health at the vet and is now focusing on finding her forever home! Nellie is working very hard on learning the ins-and-outs of living in our household. So far, we've been getting her used to grooming processes such as bathing, blow drying and brushing, crate training, potty training and basic command training. In the few short weeks that we've had her, she's already gotten over her nervousness of the grooming blow dryer, sleeps all through the night in her crate, has no potty accidents in the house, and knows commands such as focus, sit, lay down and some leash walking skills. She is really proving to be a quick and motivated learner! We have also brought her to a couple socialization groups at a local training facility to expand her familiarity with strangers. She's been very good with this! She gets along wonderfully with the four dogs and one cat we have in the household as well. Overall, Nellie has such a sweet and loving personality. Her favorite activities include snuggling on the couch, playing with toys, and wrestling with both the humans and other pups. Nellie is a naturally bigger Yorkie, weighing 16.5 pounds. She is not overweight by any means - just on the taller side! Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions regarding Nellie! She is currently being fostered by Olivia in Elkton, MD. Nellie is staying with Olivia in Elkton, MD.

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.
