Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Nugget is an adorable 4-year-old, 27 lb terrier mix with a heart as sweet as his name. This little guy is full of love and personality! He’s great with other dogs and absolutely adores kids. Nugget can be a bit shy with men at first, but once he realizes you’re a friend, he’ll be your loyal snuggle buddy. He loves giving kisses and curling up next to his people. Nugget is a smart boy who already knows sit, paw, and down—and he comes when called! He’s quiet, clean, and well-behaved in his crate, though he prefers to eat outside of it and isn’t super food-motivated. He’s more of a grazer, which makes his potty schedule a little unpredictable. He’s had a couple of accidents, but he’s improving every day. He does best with a fenced yard, since that’s where he’s most comfortable doing his business and running off his energy. Nugget isn’t a fan of walking on a leash just yet—he can be strong and a bit reactive—but he’s shown improvement, and with patience and training, he’ll get there. Nugget loves meeting people (even if he barks a little first to say hello!) and would make a wonderful addition to a loving family who can give him time, consistency, and space to play. If you’re looking for a loyal, cuddly companion who’s ready to share all his love, Nugget is your guy! He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and is available for adoption starting now through Paws Across Pittsburgh, Springdale, PA KL# 16182.

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.
