Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 0.00. Pru is a special little gal, in more ways than one. A little over a year old, she is a happy, playful, friendly girl with energy and love in spades. She is crate trained, but is still working on potty training due to some unique circumstances. You may notice that Pru doesn’t use her back legs. A spinal injury that occurred prior to her coming into our rescue has caused this, and over time the use of her back legs will continue to decrease. Don’t let this fool you or stop you, because it sure doesn’t stop Pru! She will run to her heart’s content, with or without her recently acquired new wheels. She is great with dogs of all sizes, seems to do well with cats and is fantastic with children. Pru rides well in the car and is doing well on the leash. She definitely LOVES to soak up any and all attention and love she can. At this point Pru is house trained but not potty trained. She does have accidents in the house and we are working on it to see if this can be controlled by implementing a strict potty schedule. Pru can be a little scared of new things but otherwise loves to cuddle and wants to be near you. We do not know what happened in Pru's past life, but we will make sure that her future continues to be bright. Due to her medical condition and ongoing medical needs, we will waive the adoption fee to an approved adopter. An ideal home for Pru would have minimal to no steps, but is not a requirement.

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.
