Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). Electra’s Big Sleepover One magical day a volunteer said, “Wanna sleep over?” I did not play it cool. First came the car. I hopped in like a pro and watched the world go by, quietly thinking big dog thoughts. Then—IHOP. So many humans! I tried to say hi to everyone because manners matter and also I exist. When my voice popped out, we stepped outside. I’m polite like that. At the house, I learned the rules. I had one oops while we figured out my potty schedule, then I nailed it. Backyard was nice, but when I was done, I barked once and waited at the door like a lady. I can entertain myself with toys! My favorite game is tossing a stuffy in the air and catching it with a head shake. Walks? Oh yes. I have places to be and squirrels to check on, so I pull a little. I can’t help it—I love adventures. But after all that, I turned into a snuggle expert (just ask my roommate). Kisses, cuddles, whole-body love. I started the sleepover jumpy and loud. I ended it calm, cozy, and curled up like I belonged. The volunteer says the shelter doesn’t show the real me—I’m cute, clever, loving, and a total joy to be around. Seventeen hours later, I went back to the shelter… but I left my heart on that couch. Now that I know how good life can be, I ready for my forever couch. This fun cutie has participated in shelter playgroups and may enjoy a compatible canine friend in her new home. She's previously shared her shelter suite with a very rude bitey puppy, and she's helping him (and us!) by teaching him some manners. Nanny dogs are really good at teaching rude puppies about bite inhibition, and she's doing a great job. She's a helper dog in playgroups, and she is able to play with the big rude dogs and teach some manners and burn off some of their energy. Looking for a buddy for your dog? Bring him/her to the shelter for a meet and greet and see if we're a match! Check out her playgroup video here:

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.
