Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed (short coat). Hey all, Frostine aka Frosty here again to update you on my HUGE progress, but still a ways ta go. First, although I look likes a cow, I'm a dog. No, don't mooooo either, but have yet to bark! I don't smell like cow... you know, manure stink, don't weigh a ton either, a slight 52#. At 2 1/2 years old, I'm new ta all this house stuff. I come from WV where me and my fam were put in shelter at 4 months old. No house living, stair climbing, yard playing, nothing normal. Don't know "lovin" either. BUT, I'm a learning quick! People, big n small (quieter kids as noises ascare me), dogs, cats, no problem. I'm a "Softest Soul You're EVER gonna find!" Foster mom says NO HURRY to get me adopted, she's a looking ta find someone who will take the time ta come, meet me, walk with me, allow me space and a few visits ta feel comfy with ya. Then I'll go home with ya. All this to allow me to chill, know you and you know me. I'm crate trained, NO Accidents at all, but still need ta eat in my crate by myself due to shyness. I's love animal crackers, getting a towel rub down, lying on the couch, exploring on my own and have been seen trailing a chaw on a Nylabone! Mom about flipped!!! Mom's takin me ta Tractor Supply, Boiling Springs Lake, PetSmart and walking the nearby neighborhood just taking it all in! Life is EXCITING !!!!! So, if your wanting a gal that needs some time, love n soft gentle introduction, I'm your gal. Once open to the world, mom says "Sky's the Limit" for this "Soft Soul"! I'll be Awesome~ Due to my shyness, a fenced in yard is required at this time. This may change as my shyness improves, but presently I do need a fence. 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.
