Description
Dog Breed: Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie / Maltese. Betty - 11 lb Sweetheart Looking for a Patient, Loving Home Betty is a small, gentle 11-pound dog currently being fostered through K9 Paw Print Rescue and she's ready to find her forever family. Betty came from a hoarding situation where many of the dogs appeared to be Yorkie, Maltese, and terrier-type mixes. Betty herself may have some Jack Russell or other terrier in her but her exact mix is unknown. She is estimated to be 5-8 years old. She has a beautiful happy smile and a very loving personality. Once she bonds with her person, she becomes incredibly affectionate and loyal. Betty gets along very well with other dogs and would likely thrive in a home with another friendly canine companion. Because she came from a hoarding situation, new environments will take a little time and patience, but she is incredibly gentle and eager to love. She is doing well with potty training and using a dog door but came from a hoarder situation so expect a learning curve and to have some patience with a new environment. She would do best in a calmer home with children 10+. Betty would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a sweet, sensitive little dog to love.

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.
