Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Jax is new to AAVA foster care, and we're already falling for this handsome boy! One thing you'll notice right away? He's much more petite in person than he appears in photos. Jax is a sweet, gentle soul who's a little shy when meeting new people, but in the most endearing way. He takes a little time to warm up, then quietly settles in and enjoys being part of the family. He's also a dream on a leash, walking beautifully without pulling, making him a wonderful walking companion. One thing we know for sure—Jax absolutely LOVES other dogs! A home with a canine companion is a must for this social boy. He's also settling into foster care beautifully and appears to be kennel trained. He sleeps peacefully in his crate at night, relaxes there when his foster is away, and spends his days happily lounging nearby while his foster works. We're still getting to know Jax and will continue updating his bio as we learn more, but so far he's proving to be a calm, easygoing, dog-loving pup who's ready to find a forever family. Could Jax be the newest member of your pack?

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.
