Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). This beloved girl has overcome so much during her time at VCAS. She recently fought through a severe case of pneumonia thanks to the dedication of our animal care technicians and veterinary team. She truly stole everyoneâs hearts along the way, and weâve made sure to spoil her every chance we get. Unfortunately, she also suffers from severe osteoarthritis and will require lifelong pain management. Now that sheâs recovered from her respiratory infection, she spends time in our volunteer office instead of a kennel because she deserves a softer, quieter space to rest. While sheâs comfortable, her mobility has continued to decline, and walking has become increasingly difficult for her. We are approaching a point where we may need to make humane decisions based on her quality of life. But we are not giving up on her yet! Our greatest hope is that she can find a peaceful home first, where she can simply be loved for however much time she has left and giving her dignity, comfort, and warmth outside of a shelter. Maybe with cozy cushions under her tired bones and a calm space to rest, sheâll find more good days than bad. If you can open your heart and home to this very special girl, even temporarily, please reach out to animal.careventura. She deserves nothing less than love until the very end. vcanimalservices Senior dog spending New Yearâs Eve in isolation ?? Itâs NYE, but our ACTs are still here making sure the shelter pups are settled in for the night. 10 year old Misty is stuck in isolation being treated by our vet team for pneumonia ?? She is beloved by staff because of how politely she sits and waits for her kennel to be cleaned. We could cry!! (and in fact, we will) Misty is on the up n up and remains available to adopt or foster as she gets better. She will need 4-6 weeks of treatment with antibiotics, and ongoing medication for a lil ol lady arthritis ?? she should be kept separate from other dogs during recovery. Misty is seriously SUCH a gem at the shelter, and she doesnât get much love since sheâs out of public view. Please consider coming to the shelter and asking to meet Misty A874220. Our veterinary team would be more than happy to discuss her ongoing needs with you. Interested in fostering? Please apply at vcas.us/foster and email vcar.fosterventura to let us know youâre interested specifically in Misty ?? Located with Ventura County Animal Services in Camarillo, CA. NOTE: Shelter closed 1/1. Adoptions resume at 1PM 1/2. ? Elevator Music - Bohoman

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.
