Description
Dog Breed: Unknown breed (long coat). Little Girl is a little delight! This pint-sized pup was found outside in a crate before being brought to the city shelter, but she’s now safe with PAWS and more than ready for a fresh start. We’re still getting to know this aptly named sweetie petite-y, but so far she’s shown herself to be a gentle, loving dog who just wants a calm and cozy home where she can decompress and have some stability. Little Girl has been quite anxious in our kennels so far, which has translated into a lot of stress-induced barking (we can't blame her—we'd be stressed out too)! Because we don't know how much her barking may carry over into a home, adopters should be prepared for some chatter on her end (that means a little extra patience, and thicker walls so neighbors aren't grumpy)! Little Girl would also do best in a calm, reassuring home without young kids or overly active pets, ideally with someone who’s home most of the day to keep her company—especially as she adjusts to a new environment and routine. If you can open your heart and home to Little Girl and help her feel safe again, please submit your application and email adoptionsphillypaws! Age: ~6 years old Animal ID#: A-180758 Weight: 15 lbs Mixed breed (It’s impossible to identify breed mix by sight alone, so for most dogs, their mix is only a guess. We get to know each dog as an individual and strive to make matches based on personality, not on breed label.)

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.
