Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Shepherd / Mixed. “Look at this pup… isn’t she neat?” Do you remember Part of Your World from The Little Mermaid? Well… Mya is pretty sure she wrote it—because all she wants is to be part of your world… preferably right next to you at all times. She is a 42 lb, three (3) year old lady from West Virginia. With her adorable short legs, you may need to give her a little boost onto the bed, but don’t worry—she’ll politely let you know with her quiet snorts. A yard with a fence or a secure leashing system is preferred as Mya is quick and interested in checking out her surroundings. You definitely want to hold her collar when you open the door for this lady. Outside, Mya is a total star. She loves to play fetch and will go and go until you remind her to take a break. And when it’s time to recharge? She’s a pro, whether it’s stretched out on the couch, curled up on your bed, or tucked under a shady chair. Being a sleek black beauty, she can get warm easily, so she appreciates a good rest or fan to catch her breath. And she’s earned it. This amazing girl recently gave birth to five puppies and is also a survivor of a successfully removed mammary tumor. You can see her motherly nature as she always wants to know where you are and where you are going. She will start your day with caring kisses, making sure everyone is nice and clean. She enjoys a good shower and nail day, and her medium-length black coat is easy to maintain with a weekly brush. Don't forget the belly rubs! She’d be happy as your one-and-only or with another playful pup—her foster brother gives her two paws up for wrestling, tug-of-war, cuddles, and kisses. Don’t let her size fool you… she can absolutely hold her own! A home with older kids would be the best fit, as Mya is still learning that not everyone wants to be nibbled. Her feelings about cats? Still a mystery waiting to be solved. Mya is house-broken and comfortable with a big crate for up to 3-4 hours so far. She has mastered "sit" and is currently working on "lay down." She is up to date on her vaccinations. She sleeps through the night. She is a relatively quiet girl, except when playing tug or her foster brother is guarding the front window. She wants to join in the chorus too! If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate, best friend who just wants to be by your side and stare into your eyes… Mya is ready to be part of your world. Apply to adopt Mya today. Paws Across Pittsburgh, Springdale, PA KL# 16182.

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.
