Description
Dog Breed: Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie (long coat). We took Simon in after he found himself at the pound. Evidently his owner had passed and no one in the family could or would take him I. We were told he is 13, but it’s likely that he’s older than that. Simon has very little hearing left (he can hear you clap) and he doesn’t see very well either. He recently has is last two teeth removed. But… He doesn’t seem to let any of his diminished physical abilities hold him back too much. He gets around really well. Our vet says his heart and lungs look great, and he’s been given as clean a bill of health that an old guy like him can get! Simon is housebroken, but needs to be taken out somewhat frequently or he may not be able to hold it. He is super loving and affectionate. He will absolutely give you a bath with his kisses! He sleeps contentedly through the night in a bed next to his foster mom’s bed. His absolute most favorite thing to do of all is EAT! (Who needs teeth, anyway - chewing just slows down the process right?) He is not the least bit picky about what kind of food If it’s edible, he wants it! He will also enthusiastically remind you when it’s close to dinner time (sometimes when it’s not even all that close) in case you may not be paying attention to the time.

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.
