Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier (short coat). Mid is back... He arrived stray and unfortunately his owners never came for him.. :( MID- 5-8 YEARS OLD, 70LBS, GOOD WITH OLDER KIDS, ONLY PET, POTTY TRAINED, STAFF & VOLUNTEER FAVORITE!! Mid is a happy, active, friendly, wiggly boy. He has those short legs supporting that low riding barrel tummy. He has a swagger when he walks. He is inquisitive and curious. Mid loves walks and possibly jogging. He is an almost perfect loose leash walker until he sees a squirrel or a bird. He makes it pleasant to walk next to and pleasant to stop and give a quick treat. He also loves to run and play in a yard, always with a smile, I might add. Mid is good with other calm dogs from what we have seen so far, but prefers to live alone with no other pets! Foster Update! Mid would love a private yard that he can come and go in at will (with proper supervision of course). My yard is down a flight of stairs so not as “free roaming” as he might want. He refused to come inside until I got hot enough to insist. We can use the yard well but he would do well with one of those magnetic pet screens. He is doing better about not pulling when he is intrigued and walks very nicely on leash and must “patrol the perimeter” on his last walk before bed. He is playful listens well and has great manners. He is a pleasure! Such a great boy! VBACAC 341 S Birdneck Road, VB Open daily 12-5 pm.

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.
