Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: 550. I am Sam...Sam I am...I've never had green eggs and ham...But that could change if you adopt me! Hi everyone, my name is Sammy and I am on the hunt for a family to call my own. I was born around 10/17. I am not sure what breed I am, but what I am sure of is that I am very pretty! I mean, just take a look at my face--this eyeliner is all natural! My foster mom says I will grow to be a small to medium-sized dog. I come with quite the origin story, so let me get you all caught up before I tell you all of the reasons why I am so amazing. I was separated from my mom as a young puppy and I had to navigate the world by myself for a while. Being so little, I didn't know very much about how to survive on my own. But what I did know is that I that I needed to find a new mom. So off I went, searching high and low, until one lucky day, I found her. Gracie was a stray dog just like me, and we bonded instantly. I decided to promote her to a very coveted, very special position: "Sammy's Mom". Together, we managed to travel all the way to Illinois in search of a forever home. As much as I loved my Gracie, she got adopted recently and we were separated. So now I am back to square one--eagerly searching for my new mom (or dad...or both!) I've done it before and I will do it again! You would love to be my guardian because: The fur around my mouth and face makes me look like I am wearing a mask, but I am the opposite of a bandit! I am a very good girl. I am a great listener and I will follow your rules. You won't have any problems training me, I want to learn and do as you say! I have a good sense of right and wrong. If I know I did something bad, I can correct myself. I am very respectful to other animals. I have lots of energy since I am still a puppy, but I will act differently based on my environment. For example, if you have older dogs, I will be very polite in how I play and interact with them. If they don't want to play with me, I can have just as much fun playing on my own! I get along with cats as well. You know how people say "cats are liquid"? Well, they should start saying that about me, because I sure can fit into any environment! I am very social and adventurous. I like meeting new people and animals, and I am not afraid to try new things and activities. Hiking buddy? Jogging buddy? Travel buddy? Snuggle on couch & watch TV buddy? I can do it all!

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.
