Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). Sofie is a three-year-old Benji-type terrier mix. The “breeder” referred to her as a “teddy bear,” which seems to be more of a look than an actual breed. Sofie is a typical terrier—she loves, loves loves her walks! She is under-socialized, and we are working on desensitizing her to new people and dogs, especially when she is in her crate or on a leash. Her nickname here is Sofie the Snapdragon! We are looking for a family who can meet her RDA of exercise and has some dog behavior experience in their background. We would like her new family to help her move forward rather than sheltering her at home. You can follow her progress on our Facebook page. Sofie has not yet been cat-tested, but we believe she could get along with a mellow dog with a proper introduction. Definitely no children and we prefer a house that's not busy with many visitors coming and going. Sofie has been spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and tested negative for heartworms. Her adoption fee is $250. If you believe you are the family Sofie is looking for, please fill out an application at panimals.

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.
