Description
Dog Breed: Terrier (medium coat). Meet Lolli! This sassy budding senior was given away after her owner passed away because the family didn’t want to keep her. It’s sad how disposable dogs can be to some people, but we’re grateful for the chance to help this sweet girl find the loving forever home she truly deserves. Lolli has fully settled into her local foster home and has proven to be a sweet, well-behaved girl who knows her basic commands. She’s fully housetrained and has never been destructive. She waits to be invited before getting on the furniture, where she’s perfectly content to snuggle and watch TV. She is an excellent passenger in the car and is always excited to take a ride anywhere. Her favorite activity is playing with her toys, which she often initiates on her own. Her favorite activity is playing with her toys, which she often initiates all on her own. Lolli is a social pup who enjoys meeting new people and has proven to be grood around kids. She has lived successfully with another dog, but is perfectly happy as an only dog, having her people all to herself. She does have some separation anxiety in new environments, but the good news is that it has steadily improved as she’s settled into her foster home. She would most enjoy an environment with people present throughout the day. However, she can be trusted to be left alone without crating and waits patiently by the door for her people to come back home. Overall, Lolli has a laid-back energy level and could happily be an only dog or live with another easygoing pup. She walks nicely on leash without pulling, although she can be barky toward some dogs. She has made friends with several dogs in her foster neighborhood, but she’d do best in a quieter, lower-traffic environment...she's not a city dog. This adorable, scruffy girl has so much life and love left to give, and her best days are still ahead. ❤️ Apply today! Medical update: Lolli has had a dental and had two mammary masses removed that were benign. She has a clean bill of health and is raring to start her new life!

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.
