Description
Dog Breed: Belgian Shepherd Tervuren / Mixed (medium coat). Meet Lola, the Belgian Tervuren mix. Lola arrived to the Shelter after her previous guardianâs landlord changed the pet policy. Lola has lived with other animals including a small dog and a cat (whom she would play with). She was indoor-outdoor previously and slept indoors at night. She would hang out with the family while they were working and coexisted nicely with chickens and peacocks she saw. She is house trained and will let her guardian know when she has to go out. One of Lolaâs favorite activities is playing fetch and retrieving her ball. She walks on a harness. Staff have observed that she is social and easy to handle. Lola has met an older border collie and solicited play with a big playbow after some initial greeting. Lola would thrive with an active adopter who can meet her day to day needs. She will thrive with daily mental and physical stimulation. If there are any resident dogs in the home, it is recommended that they meet at the Shelter prior to adoption. Any felines in the home should be dog-savvy and introduced in a slow, thoughtful manner. The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering âPawsitivity Bucksâ with every dog adoption. This $200 training voucher is a way for newly adopted canines and their guardians to connect with local positive reinforcement based behavior consultants and get their relationship started off on the right paw! Please note: Our Santa Cruz locationâs Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week! Although clients can walk through and see any animals in their kennels during open hours, we end âmeet and greetsâ (aka meeting an animal out of the kennel) at 4:30pm every day. If youâd like to meet an animal out of the kennel, please arrive before 4:00pm to allow for time to discuss individual animals and meet them.

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.
