Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed (short coat). *****UPDATE! 4/14/26 ***** Frostine, aka "Frosty" moving and groooving, loving this warmer weather! Yep, I'm out and about with my foste fam, running/playin and just taking in the sun after zoomies are done. I'm still a shy gal, outside mostly where I do follow my 4 legged and "Tap" my nose on mom's hand ta tell her I'm here. She ignores me and that makes me more comfy with situations... No intent.... the process is working too. Inside I've delared "my spot on the couch". I do share the couch with other 4 fam, but my spot is MY SPOT!.. I do enjoy rubbing my nose in mom's hair (she sits on the floor, we 4 leggeds get the couch) and giving "little kiss dabs" ta mom's face, just because. She is my FAVORITE Person fur sure! Dad, well, he ignores me then I'm more comfortable. At time I do come up ta him, but the process is fur him to ignore then I'm closer and learning ta trust. Mom says I'm her 52# cow since I'm black/white. If ya look close it may be a deep Deep Chocolate brown really. Can see it specially when the sun shines on my silky fur. Did ya know I'm 2 1/2 years old so all the "kids stuff" is done. No chewin stuff, peein on stuff and "Not even a bark" outa me yet! Mom n dad's yard is HUGE. It is fenced but has an animal wire ta keep foster kids in. I've met the "Fence Monster" twice and sure don't want ta meet it again. I stay away from "Fence Monster". So mom/dad feel if ya know how, I could learn an under ground fence or one of those other new fangled "Halo Collar" Things to keep us 4 leggeds safe. Good with all dogs, cats and people big n small, but the little ones move quick so's it's best no real small little tikes to scare me. I am a "Softest Soul" and scare easy, still shy from new folks, but need time to keep learning. I PROMISE Ya, I"m worth your time n effort. HONEST! If ya want ta meet, be my champion to bring on my best side, help me continue my "Baby Steps" Ta SUCCESS, get an application in.. Frostine, "Frosty" will WARM your day! Kennel License# 04736

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.
