Description
Dog Breed: Unknown breed. Fill out an Adoption Application Meet Fenley Fenley is an approximately 2-year-old mixed breed sweetheart weighing about 40 pounds (he’s actually more petite than he appears in photos!). He has a nice soft coat with incredibly soft fur, he’s as handsome as he is gentle. Fenley was pulled from the euthanasia list this past December when a foster stepped up to save him right before euthanasia — and we are so glad she did. He has proven to be a truly special boy who just needed a second chance. The Basics: • Male, neutered • Up to date on vaccines and preventatives • Heartworm negative • Housebroken if taken out regularly and crated when gone. Most dogs will need an adjustment period when going to a new home. • Crate trained (his crate is his safe space, and he sleeps there through the night) • Leash trained — he walks nicely and will stop immediately when told to stay but may need some encouragement in strange places. Dog-Friendly & Gentle Soul Fenley has done wonderfully with two smaller senior dogs in his foster home. He has not had the opportunity to meet any cats. He would probably do well with a small to medium dog to help him gain confidence and be a playmate. He loves toys and does like to destroy them so needs things he cannot chew and swallow. Personality Fenley is sweet, playful, and loves his toys. He adores pets and belly rubs and is very gentle when taking treats. He only barks in the morning when he’s ready to come out of his crate. He allows strangers to approach and pet him but can be a little hesitant at first — he’s still building confidence. He’s a bit timid about walking on busy streets and getting in and out of the car, though he does well walking in the yard. With patience and encouragement, his confidence continues to grow. Fenley is looking for a patient, loving home that will continue helping him blossom. He has already come so far and just needs someone to show him the world is a safe and happy place. If you’re looking for a gentle, loyal companion with a playful heart, Fenley might be your perfect match.

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.
