Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Zarek is a 13-week-old Shepherd mix (best guess!) with a handsome black coat, a bright white belly, and adorable white paws. Weighing in at 13 pounds, this sweet boy is expected to grow into a medium-sized dog (26–60 lbs). Zarek is a fun, sensitive, and energetic puppy who adjusted very well to his foster home. He’s full of playful personality, especially when he lets out his tiny growls to convince his sister to play! He LOVES tug-of-war with rope toys and enjoys chasing games around the couch. Zarek is still working on potty training and is learning how to signal when he needs to go outside. He isn’t crate-trained yet, but he settles nicely once placed inside and is making great progress. He’s vocal when he wants to play or when he’s ready to start the day, but he does not bark or whine for long periods when left alone. As a very puppy-energetic boy with working-breed traits, Zarek will thrive in a home ready to provide consistent training, structure, and plenty of exercise. A fenced yard may be beneficial as he grows, though it’s still too early to say for certain. Zarek is a playful, loving little guy with a sensitive heart, ready to find a forever family to grow up with.

Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, heartworm/Lyme test, all age-appropriate vaccinations (distemper, rabies, and Bordetella), heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, and microchip implant (including registration). Adoption fees INCLUDE a mandatory sales tax of 7.525%.

However, we will consider up to 250 miles if the foster agrees to travel requirements and staff approval.

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.
