Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). Eros is a true sweetheart with a gentle, shy soul. He may need a little time to warm up to new people, but once he does, all he wants is love, hugs, and a safe place to call home. Slow and steady is the way to this good boyâs heart! Eros originally came to us as a stray, so much of his past is a mystery. He was briefly adopted but returned after a couple of days, and we want to be very clear that Eros will need patience and time to adjust in his new home. With understanding and consistency, we know he has the potential to blossom into a deeply loyal and loving companion. In the shelter, Eros has been friendly toward other dogs. He tends to keep to himself but always perks up when he sees his canine friends nearby. He has done wonderfully with handling, enjoys attention, and has even been a champ during bath time! Potty training may still be a work in progressâshelter life can make it hard to tellâbut with routine and gentle reminders, weâre confident heâll catch on quickly. Eros would benefit from crate training, both to help prevent accidents and to give him a cozy, secure space of his very own while his people are away. Eros has a mellow energy level and enjoys relaxed walks and enrichment activities like stuffed Kongs. As he becomes more comfortable and confident, we expect his personality to continue to shine brighter every day. Eros is such a good boy, and he deserves a home willing to give him the time, patience, and love he needs to truly thrive!

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.
