Description
Dog Breed: Shar Pei / Mixed. PLEASE NOTE! Unless stated otherwise, our dogs and puppies are located in Arkansas, and transported to the north/northeast once adopted. We do occasionally have dogs/puppies placed in foster homes in the north/northeast. In the cases where the pet is somewhere other than Arkansas, it will be noted beside the name of the pet. 2/7/26 Meet Odin. This big boy is about 2 years old and weighs 60 lbs. He has been very good with the other dogs in his foster home and is not interested in tangling with the cats. His foster home doesn't include children but we believe he would do well with kids, since he loves all people. He is house trained. Don't miss out on this big sweet smoocher! We believe he is a Shar Pei mix. This poor boy has a very sad story...we won't get into all of the details but his first owner dragged him behind a truck because Odin wouldn't fight another dog. After that a man stepped in to take him before said owner killed him. The new owner didn't take the best care of him and ended up going to prison. He left him behind with people who decided Odin wasn't even worth feeding and just left him outside in a muddy mess. That is the story we were told, we take it with a grain of salt but we have no doubts it's mostly true. Anyway, Odin was taken in by a wonderful foster and is now ready for adoption. Despite his past, he is a very sweet guy who deserves the best home! Odin is located in Arkansas. He can be adopted locally, but transport is available to the New England area as well. Adopter must be able to pick up or arrange for someone to pick up for them in PA, NY, or CT on Saturdays. To apply, please fill out the adoption app: form.jotform/212690945239059 Message us or email apps.aasrgmail with any questions. Our typical adoption fee for puppies younger than 6 months old is $400, and for older puppies and adults, the usual fee is $350. This includes microchip, spay/neuter, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, dewormings, flea/tick treatment, and heartworm test (if over 6 months old) as well as heartworm treatment if they test positive. There is a transport fee of $150 per dog, depending on the transporter. We use Pack Leaders Rescue Dog Transport most often, but also use Hearts Transport as well on occasion.

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.
