Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). Maura - A little over one year old and approximately 40 pounds. Currently in foster care, in need of her own FURever home. If you are interested, please submit an adoption application via our website: mcalwv Adoption fee $75. Maura has proven herself to be resilient! Discarded with two brothers and a sister as a young puppy, Maura was able to be caught shortly after giving birth to her own puppies (still a puppy herself). Sadly, her litter did not survive. Immediately upon being brought into foster care, she was very skeptical of people. In a matter of days she opened up to love and hugs! She's withstood the sands of time, now she needs a home to call her own!

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.
