Description
Dog Breed: Shepherd / Mixed. Hi there everyone! My name is Licorice and I am 2 years old. I am a sweet girl that came to us as a stray and am ready for a new start! I am a friendly girl that has been excited to meet new people and other dog friends! I really enjoy saying hello to older gentleman so maybe I was owned by an older man? I would do well in a home with kiddos. I take treats nicely and you are able to take my toys away from me, though I REALLY LOVE the game of tug of war so be prepared to face me! I can be quite vocal when I play with toys and other dogs, but do not be afraid, I am just loud! Squeaky toys are my favorite and I like tennis balls too! I would really enjoy either a fenced in yard or someone who can take me on leashed walks - I walk nicely on the leash! My downfall is I am listed as cat selective. What does this mean? Well, I will confidently approach cats and based on certain behaviors staff has seen, I will likely chase them too. Now, if the cats are resting out of my reach, I will simply cast them a passing glance and pay them no attention. So while I do have a prey drive to chase, I could coexist with cats with a confident owner that will help me correct my behaviors! Please come out to see me! I would love to meet you!Give the shelter a call at (574) 267-3008 or email them at infoawlwarsaw if you have any questions about me! If not, stop by the shelter at 1048 S 325 E in Pierceton, IN 46562 to look at me! No appointments necessary!

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.
