Meet Pea Sweet little Pea is a gentle, easygoing girl who thrives with patience, routine, and a calm home. Because she has very limited vision, Pea needs a little time to learn her surroundings and feel secure. Once she does, she settles in beautifully and confidently navigates her world using her excellent nose and ears. You may see her gently boop walls or furniture as she moves around, her own version of mapping out where she is, which is both endearing and impressive. Pea enjoys exploring the yard, can manage steps with a moment to orient herself, and knows exactly where to go when she needs to potty. She lets you know by heading toward the back door, giving you time to help her get outside. She is not a big cuddler, but she loves being near her people. Pea will sit close, nap nearby, and happily accept ear and butt scritchies. When you talk to her, her wrinkly, semi nekkid tail wiggles with joy. She greets her foster with happy barks and even a little jump for pets when they come home. Pea loves her kennel and chooses it as her safe, cozy space for sleeping and meals. She happily goes in when her bowl is ready. One of her most charming quirks is her quiet little grumble or growl, especially around food. Sometimes she will rearrange her bowl just right while softly talking to herself, or simply sit and grumble thoughtfully for no apparent reason. Because of her limited vision, Pea can startle if another dog sneaks up on her. She may growl or snap to say “hey, I didn’t see you,” but there is no aggression behind it. She would do best as an only dog or with calm, respectful dog friends who understand her needs and give her space. Pea truly is an easy dog to have. She is gentle, predictable, and quietly affectionate. She is looking for a forever home willing to give her a little time to adjust, appreciate her quirks, and let her continue to blossom. In return, Pea will offer steady companionship, sweet moments, and a whole lot of heart.

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.
