She was rescued along with a litter of neonate puppies, who all looked like polar bears and nothing like her. Ha, ha! Her rescuers had her for the first 2 months while she was nursing her pups and then sought help from local rescuers to take the entire family. A local shelter took in the puppies, but Frida did not pass their intake exam as she was too apprehensive and afraid during the exam, so they denied her entry. ARWOB was then contacted and we accepted her into our care. Sadly, on the first day of transport while at the boarding/vet clinic, the staff let go of her leash and off she went. She was lost for 48 hours and she evaded anyone who approached her out of fear. Thankfully she was recaptured. That was in mid-September and we are happy to report that after one month in our care, this little Senorita is now enjoying human attention, socializing, and seeking attention with her sweet little hip sway and wagging tail! Frida is a young adult anywhere from 2-4 years old, who is fairly quiet, does great inside her crate, and has not had any accidents in the house. She has been staying at Casa de ARWOB and has been the easiest dog to care for. We have not had a single problem with her. She is a little timid and hesitant when experiencing new things, but she has learned so much from her “bestie” Tara, another young and beautiful adult dog, who is very outgoing and is a companion that Frida has learned to trust a LOT. Frida is wonderful with all dogs, has a neutral personality, and is just the perfect small/medium sized canine. Being a Baja mutt, she is likely a mix of both large and small breeds. She looks like a mini shepherd. We have not tested her with cats, but believe she would likely be fine with them and can test her upon request. Frida has been fully vetted at our San Diego vet and spayed. She is now ready to find the forever home of her dreams! If you would like to foster or adopt, or request a foster-to-adopt trial, please submit an application online or attend our adoption events in October.

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.
