Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat). POPPY - 5-8 years old, 58 pounds, house trained, friendly, good on leash Poppy arrived at the shelter when her owner passed away. She is a pretty girl with dark brindle fur, white fur along her chest, tummy and paws, and always a smile on her face and a wiggle from her body. Although her previous owners kept them separate when no one was home, Poppy used to live with another dog and, with a proper introduction, would probably do well with other dogs. While outside here at the shelter, she seemed interested in the dogs playing in the next yard. Poppy is excited to go outside and loves to run! She loves to go for walks as well and is good on the leash. Her aura is that of a lively and enthusiastic girl ready for a loving family to take her on adventures, walks, and car rides. Poppy is currently in a back kennel 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.
