Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Introducing Alamo! This beautiful 1-year-old, 44-lb mix may be shy at first, but behind those cautious eyes is a truly gentle soul. Alamo came to the shelter from an abandoned home with several other dogs. She is scared and unsure at first when meeting new dogs. But she’s already showing what a sweetheart she is, and with a little patience and kindness, she’ll lean in for more trust and love. Alamo is heartworm positive but can be treated—and she deserves the chance to feel safe and happy again. She just needs a loving home where she can blossom into the loyal companion she’s meant to be.

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.
