Dog Breed: Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie / Chihuahua. Adoption Fee: 1,000.00. Scroll down to see more pictures of this dog. Gianna is not available for adoption at this time, she has to gain weight so she can have her medical completed. She is 2 years old and weighs 3.4 pounds. Her adoption fee is $1,000.00. Meet Gianna – Medical Pending Gianna is a sweet, two-year-old pup weighing just 3.4 pounds—well below her healthy range of 5 to 6 pounds. She’s currently on a nutritional plan to help her gain weight, and once she maintains a stable weight, her vet will consider scheduling her spay surgery. Despite her tiny size, Gianna has a big personality. She’s food aggressive, which we’re actively working on, and she’s extremely skittish—she often backs away when approached and is afraid of people. This stems from her past, where she and four other dogs were left alone for 12 to 16 hours a day with only each other for comfort. Because of this, Gianna must be placed in a home with other dogs to feel safe and supported. She’s not available for adoption just yet—she’s still medical pending—but she’s making progress every day. Gianna loves to cuddle, especially with her foster sisters, and she wants to be held all the time. She’s learning how to go up and down stairs and enjoys playing with her toys. Her gentle spirit and resilience shine through, and she’s slowly learning that love and safety are here to stay. Gianna is staying with Linda in Tonawanda, NY.

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.
