Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: $50.00. Riley is looking for a new home due to his owner's severe allergies. His family has tried everything and I mean everything to be able to keep him. Riley is a 9 year old terrier mix who weighs 35 lbs. He originally was a rescue and has been with his family for 8 loving years. In spite of the current situation, his family is willing to wait for the right adopter. They want to pick the person who adopts him rather than having him go to a foster situation. Riley is house trained, crate trained, neutered, up to date on his vaccines and heart worm negative.No known health issues, He loves to go on walks, run around the yard and play with his toys and his family. He is sweet, loving and eager to please. He does not like strangers, especially men and boys. He is protective of family and has nipped at the son's friends but has never bitten any one. His family feels he would do better in a home with no other dogs and older children, if any. He has lived sucessfully with a cat in the past. Riley says he is afraid of fireworks and thunder and he is not a fan of the mailman, hawks and big trucks. Do you have room in your home and heart for Riley? He is not a Rose's Rescue dog, we are posting him in order to help his humans find him a furever home. His adoption fee is $50. He is located in the Cuyahoga Falls 44221 area. Please contact Sarah (text) at 330-815-1090 for more information on this handsome boy.

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.
