Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). Bongo is an 8 months old terrier and is a very laid back little guy. He is doing super well with potty training, with no accidents in the first several days. He doesn’t love the kennel, but has tolerated it well for a few hours when I’m away from the house. We are working on it overnight as he much prefers to sleep in his bed. Bongo truly loves other dogs and plays so nicely, taking cues and loving to chase and play tug of war with them. He doesn’t resource guard toys, food, or people. He would do well with another dog, and although he hasn’t been around children, he seems like he would enjoy playing with kids as well. He hasn’t done a lot of barking, seeming to ignore outside noises. He needs exercise and chew toys to keep him from puppy chewing, but responds to a firm NO if he picks up a shoe or engages in other inappropriate behavior. A fenced yard would be a plus. He hasn’t been on a leash much yet, and rides in the car well, especially on a lap. He’s good around people, asking for scratches and touch in a gentle way. Bongo is definitely ready for a forever home where he can gain confidence in a loving family. Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, Prepaid microchip, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue. Adoption fee: $650.00

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.
