Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 500. Tootsie is a happy, energetic Lab/Terrier mix puppy with an approximate birthdate of November 30, and her personality is pure sunshine. She is everything you’d hope for in a puppy—playful, curious, silly, and full of life. This girl LOVES to play and could happily spend all day romping around with toys, especially stuffed ones. Watching Tootsie zoom by proudly carrying a stuffie in her mouth is guaranteed to make you smile. She’s fantastic with other dogs and kids, though like most puppies, she’s still learning her manners and can be a bit mouthy as she explores the world. Tootsie is learning the ropes with potty training. While she’s still working on going outside consistently, she reliably uses puppy pads, so she absolutely understands the concept. She is extremely food motivated, which means once outdoor potty training clicks, she’s going to learn fast. She’s also still learning how to walk nicely on a leash, but that puppy enthusiasm and eagerness to please will go a long way with continued training.

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.
