Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: $450. Zella and her littermates were found as strays in Opelika, Alabama. When they arrived at the local shelter, they were very sick puppies—but thankfully, they were in the right place at the right time. The shelter team provided the lifesaving medical care they needed, and because of that, Zella is now fully recovered, thriving, and ready for her forever home. Our best guess on her breed mix includes hound/beagle, possibly with some lab, boxer, and/or pittie. She’s approaching 5 months old and still under 25 lbs, so we expect her to stay a comfortable medium size once fully grown. These two adorable girls are as loving as they come and are being fostered together. Zella has a little more energy and independence, but both are incredibly friendly, sociable, and come running the moment you call them. They’ve done wonderfully with the resident dogs in their foster home and especially love playing with the youngest pup. Toys are still a new concept, but we’re sure they’ll figure out the fun with time. What they do know is how to play, zoom around, and entertain everyone with their goofy energy! Zella and Zoe are currently working on house and crate training, and they already walk nicely on a leash. They enjoy their outings and are great car riders—just a little nervous when first getting in. And amazingly… they’re quiet pups! (We know, we’re shocked too!) These two are sweet, social, and ready to find a family who will cherish them both. Zella is current on vaccinations and flea/tick/heartworm prevention. She is also spayed and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $450. If you are interested in this cutie, please submit an application on our website at worthytails.rescuegroups. For any questions, please send an email to jessie.wilsoncomcast. Thank you for your interest in a rescue pup! PA Kennel License #18991

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.
