Description
Dog Breed: Unknown breed (short coat). DORY FKA LAINEY - 2 years old, Good with older kids, Good with larger dogs, No cats, No small dogs, No small animals. Dory was surrendered back to us when she wasn't getting along with a smaller dog inside of the home. Dory has shown a prey drive towards smaller animals than her. She has shown to be good with dogs larger than her but she does show signs of resource guarding so food and toys should be kept separate. She has been around children but is very active, jumpy, mouthy, and her owner states she would be better with older kiddos due to this. She is crate trained and house trained, She did have accidents inside of the home when she was first adopted and getting used to the new environment, but once she found her way around she had no accidents. She was known to jump over short fences (3 ft) so she needs to be kept a close eye on outside if you don't have a tall fence! She is described as loving with people, sweet, cuddler, loves to give kisses. She had a doggie door in her previous home she could go in and out as she pleased. She loves to chase waves and try to bite the waves crashing on the beach. She was a regular attendie at Bayville large dog park where large dogs can play with owner supervision. She is just in a back kennel, Ask to meet her!

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.
