Description
Dog Breed: Cane Corso Mastiff (short coat). Emaciated, but gaining weight slowly, little by little--this beauty was found by the roadside in rural Campbell County, and quite frankly, we love that she is now safe and transferred to the care of a foster mom nearby. To officially celebrate her transition into FOAC's foster care, we fully vetted her, and microchipped her with a FOAC microchip! Congratulations, skinny minny BlueBelle--welcome to the club! After a full exam at the vet, including bloodwork that indicates she is full-blown heat, heartworm negative, negative for all tick diseases, and with a negative fecal, BlueBelle just needs to rest and gain weight so that she can be spayed. She has had too many litters, from all appearances, and has apparently accepted her fate for several years. Now, however, she gets to be a devoted pet, a companion, a friend to anyone she chooses. And here is the interesting part of what we have already observed: although she was picked up and literally saved by a man, once she hit the shelter system, men became intolerable! It's quite possible that time in her foster home will mellow her, but we will not rush the assessment and will give her time to gain weight and become more comfortable with changes. For now, she is safe, and can spend her days contemplating life as a spoiled house dog. She is housetrained, excellent with women, seems fine with other dogs, and wants to please whoever is near by. What a beauty! We'd like her to weigh at least 70 pounds before she is spayed. PLEASE NOTE: This pet has been posted by Friends of Campbell County Animal Control, Rustburg, VA.

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.
