Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Please note this dog is NOT an official Underdog dog, and you will be connected with the person who has the dog. Please Contact Jessica: jessashnelsongmail MEET LUNA!! Luna is a sweet and resilient little dog, estimated to be about 2–3 years old and weighing around 22–25 pounds, with a truly inspiring story. She was found emaciated in the middle of a highway in Barbados, where her rescuer is currently attending medical school, and was brought to the United States during a school break so she could have a real chance at finding a loving home. Because Luna spent much of her life surviving as a street dog, she is still learning what it means to live in a home and be someone’s pet, but she is making wonderful progress. She is leash trained, crate trained, rides well in the car, and gets along well with cats, dogs, children, and adults. Luna can be a bit timid and skittish when first meeting new people, but with a little patience she warms up and reveals her affectionate, gentle, and sometimes goofy personality. She absolutely loves attention, food, and curling up close to her person, and once she feels safe she becomes very attached—happily following you around like a little shadow and settling in as a loving lap companion. Luna would do best with a patient family who understands her past and is willing to give her the time and reassurance she needs to continue building confidence and enjoying the safe, happy life she deserves.

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.
