Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Please note that PAHS does NOT do online adoption applications. You must come to the shelter in person to meet the PAHS pets. Champ is a 2-year-old male Pit Bull mix who must be neutered before adoption. He was found as a stray; but when his owner was contacted they no longer wanted him. Champ is gray with white markings; and he is a nice-looking dog. He weighs 56 pounds so he is a big fellow. Not only is Champ big--he is VERY strong and active. He would require an experienced owner who is familiar with the breed; and willing to spend a lot of time with him to curb his energy and help Champ understand acceptable behavior. Due to his size and energy level, we do not think Champ should be in a home with children. He is dog specific and if you have another dog--we would require that your dog come to the shelter for a supervised introduction. He does NOT need to be in a home with cats. Again, Champ needs an experienced and patient owner who is willing to spend a lot of time working with him. Dog/puppy adoption fees are $120. Cat/kitten adoption fees are $75. All pets will be spayed/neutered before adoption; or you will be given a discount spay/neuter certificate to be used at participating vet clinics to help with the cost of spay/neuter. Our adoption fees cover a microchip, microchip registration, deworming, vaccinations (as age and law requires), and a courtesy vet exam at participating offices. Unless otherwise indicated under "special needs" our dogs have screened heart worm negative. *****Please note that PAHS does NOT do online adoption applications. You must come to the shelter in person to meet the PAHS pets.*****

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.
