Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Chica (A140119) is a 7-year-old Pitbull mix who weighed 56.6 pounds on intake! 11/10/25 This sweet mama dog is Chica! Chica was surrendered to the shelter because her owner was no longer able to care for her. Chica recently weaned a litter of puppies and was spayed here at the shelter, so she is ready to find her new loving home! Chica was described as a shy but friendly girl. She will need some reminders as she settles into a new home and routine. We do not know if she is fully housebroken or kennel trained. However, in foster she did great at using the doggy door when she needed to go outside! We have found that Chica is not overly fond of long outings in the snow and prefers the cushioned life in front of the fire or heater! While in foster she did well with the children in the home as well as the cat and rabbit. Please ensure you are making appropriate introductions with all new people and animals to help set her up for success. If you are interested in meeting Chica, please let us know!

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.
