Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. A FUN & FRIENDLY BOY: Approx. 4 years old / Approx. 16 lbs. Hello – I’m Artemis! I came to Mostly Mutts from animal control, and I am so happy to be soaking up all the love from the volunteers. Now I'm ready to find a wonderful home of my very own with a family to love and be loved by! Come meet me soon and let’s see if we’re a great match! • OTHER DOGS/CATS/KIDS: I met other dogs at Mostly Mutts and did not like them, so I’ll want to be your only dog. / Cats unknown. / I haven’t met kids yet at Mostly Mutts, but I think older kids may be best as I have some guarding tendencies. So, if you have older kids, let’s meet. • PERSONALITY/ENERGY LEVEL: I’m a fun, playful, and friendly boy - just the happiest and cutest! I love being close and even jumped right into my bather’s arms to be held. I was a little unsure about the sprayer at first during my bath, but I settled in nicely and rewarded them with lots of tail wags during towel-off time. I’m very sweet and friendly, though I can be a bit sensitive around my head, so gentle handling there is appreciated. / Energy level: 4-6. • SKILLS/CRATE/POTTY: I'm in the Mostly Mutts University training program and have already mastered the ‘come’ command. I also use proper door etiquette, and I look forward to learning more. Let's continue my training together with the free lifetime training classes that Mostly Mutts offers for all their adopted dogs. I have some guarding tendencies in a few areas that my trainers are working on with me, so ask about this and they will be glad to help you with training strategies. / I can be a little reactive around my crate, so just ask about this. / My potty manners have been good on the shelter schedule, so hopefully that will be the case in my new home, too. • LIKES/DISLIKES: I love people, playing, having fun and I’m sure we’ll find lots of other things we’ll enjoy doing together. / Other than the above-mentioned guarding, I can’t think of any dislikes, though like all dogs, I’m sure I wouldn’t like it if I didn’t get enough love, attention, exercise, and training. • MEDICAL: I'm current on annual vaccinations, micro-chipped and neutered. I have a very mild luxating patella in my right rear leg, so I’m on a good over the counter joint supplement called Cosequin. I’m a wonderful little dog looking for a wonderful family to love and be loved by. My adoption fee is $299.00, and I’m located in Kennesaw, Ga.

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.
