Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier (medium coat). This sweet but shy gal needs a little time to feel safe, but once she trusts you, she happily leans in for gentle pets and affection. Sheâll do best with an experienced ownerâideally someone familiar with shy dogsâand kids older who can go slow, use fear-free, positive-reinforcement methods, and let her adjust at her own pace. She may also do well with a well-mannered, mellow dog. With patience and kindness, sheâll blossom into a loving, loyal companion.

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.
