Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 300. Bowie is as sweet and loving as they come! He has an affectionate, goofy personality that will keep a constant smile on your face. Bowie loves to snuggle and play with his toys, and he’s just as happy curling up on the couch for a movie night as he is heading out on an adventure with you. Bowie adores other dogs and would thrive in a home with a canine companion to play with. He gets along beautifully with dogs of all sizes and is very respectful of their space. He even does well with cats! Bowie is both potty trained and crate trained, has great house manners, and walks nicely on a leash. Bowie can be a little shy around young children and may try to hide from them at times, so we recommend a home with children ages 10 and up. If you’re looking for a sweet, gentle soul with a silly side, Bowie might be the perfect match for you! Bowie is just over a year old, weighs about 50 pounds, and is believed to be a boxer/terrier mix. The adoption fee of $300 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.

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.
