Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed. This sweetie pie is Ophelia. She is a 1 1/2 yr old mixed breed (our guess is hound mix) and the perfect size at about 50 pounds. Ophelia is a good natured, loving girl who has spent far too much of her young life in a kennel. She is playful and affectionate and wants to please! She has all the makings of a great family dog, she just needs someone who will give her a chance. Ophelia has never lived in a home so she will need training, which the rescue is willing to provide. A little bit of effort is all it will take to see this girl reach her full potential! Ophelia is really struggling in the kennel and we would love to see her in a home as soon as possible. Ophelia is spayed, microchipped, up to date on vaccines and waiting to meet her future family. If you would consider opening your heart and your home for this deserving girl, please fill out an application on our website at Rescueridge. If your application is a possible match, a volunteer will reach out to you to schedule a meet. Ophelia is located in Monmouth County, NJ Please note, we rarely do out-of-state adoptions.

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.
