Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat). FRIENDLY, OBEDIENT, COUCH POTATO, LOVES TO CUDDLE Foster Update! Tia has done amazing with the cats! She acts like she is the cats mom haha. She is potty trained, loves to play with plush toys and squeaky toys. She was a quiet girl in foster and never barked!? They loved having her in foster and had nothing but amazing things to say! TIA - 1-5 years old, 45 pounds, house trained (if not left too long), playful Tia was adopted from another shelter one year ago. Now they're moving and leaving her behind. Tia is a friendly girl who needs just a few moments to warm up to new people. Don't push it. She will come. She is playful and enjoys plush and squeaky toys. She also showed us she is good with rolling around in the grass and mud so this tomboy girl is good with getting dirty! She likes going for walks but she is scared of cars. She is also nervous riding in cars. Tia enjoyed the company of the other dogs we introduced her to in our shelter playgroup. She sniffed them, allowed them to sniff her. She trotted around and smiled for photos when the camera came around. SUPER CUTE! Tia has not lived with another dog though so supervision and management will be vital if there is a resident dog. Tia has, however, lived with a cat and everything was fine. She is house trained but if left for longer than 12 hours will have accidents and possibly destroy items. She is fine if left alone for shorter periods. Tia is hanging out in a back kennel for now so if you come in to meet her and don't see her, please just ask!

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.
