Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Quincy is a twelve pound scruffy terrier mix with a cuddly heart, a curious nose, and a spunky little spark that keeps life interesting. He’s four years old, healthy, neutered, and ready for his forever person! He loves sniffy walks, chasing a squeaky toy, and then curling up right against you like he’s clocking in for his snuggle shift. Outside he’s an explorer, inside he’s a calm little shadow who just wants to be near you. Quincy gets along well with gentle, mellow dogs and enjoys slow introductions. Big rowdy dogs and fast moving things like scooters or trucks can make him nervous, and sometimes he lets the world know he’s unsure. With patient reassurance he settles quickly and shows how sweet and affectionate he really is. He’s housetrained, working on his crate skills, and learning that it’s okay to spend small bits of time alone. He’s a little dog with a lot of love waiting for the right match!

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.
