Description
Dog Breed: Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie (medium coat). Adoption Fee: 350.00. All dogs listed here are available for adoption from Yorkie Rescue Houston. Our goal is to ensure our rescued pets go to their forever home and never end up back in the system. To that end, an application is required on all potential adopters. Our adoption fee varies by dog. We accept electronic funds via VENMO or Zelle, or cash only. donateyorkierescuehouston or, if you prefer: our fundraising platform, Zeffy Puppies too young to be spayed/neutered are available for Foster-to-Adopt only. A FTA contract is required. Punkin was surrendered to our rescue by a good samaritan. She was found by a resident who wanted the 'dog catcher' to come get her. The neighbor wasn't having it! She had seen the girl wandering the neighborhood for a couple of weeks and took the time to gain her trust. She was finally able to pick her up and realized how sick the baby was. Besides the massive mammary tumor on her side, she had bi-lateral ear infections, skin infection, and her mouth was a mess. She needed a lot of help. We got her groomed, started ear meds, had surgery and removed the tumor, spayed her, and got her a badly needed dental. She is healing nicely. We named her Punkin. She is shy at first, but after she trusts you, will seek loves and pets. Punkin gets along with other dogs, but barks at my kitty

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.
