Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Meet Pepper! Pepper is a 25 pound, 7 month old mixed breed pupper! Pepper is a mildly spicy, curious yet cautious cutie! She will bark at you upon meeting but generally approves of you if given a few minutes to sniff you out and perhaps with a treat to sweeten the deal. Pepper is a girl that thrives on connection and playtime - both with other dogs and with humans. Pepper is accustomed to eating, napping, and sleeping overnight in her crate. She is also becoming house trained with a routine schedule. Little Miss Pepper Pants is very treat-motivated and eager to learn, making training a fun bonding experience. She is intimiated when meeting new dogs and will be a bit loud (obnoxious!) in the first few minutes. Once she feels she's communicated effectively, she wants to play. Like with all puppies, she will want someone who is prepared to continue typical puppy training so she can be the best girl she can be - things like leash-walking, general behavior, etc will be necessary to ensure long term success. She is fine with other dogs or kids. She's not met any cats but would likely be ok with them if the adopter is willing to be patient and go with slow intros. Pepper is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on core vaccinations. She will be able to go to her forever home on or after Jan 4, 2026.

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.
