Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (long coat). Edelstein is an independent, easy going, and friendly old man. He is generally calm and quiet in the kennel as long as he’s gotten time to wander the yard (but he does prefer to be out of the kennel). This boy walks well on the leash, is easy to carry and handle and has been nice with everyone he’s met (dogs and humans alike). Edelstein is about 13 years old and weighs around 18 pounds. This sweet boy came into the shelter in Texas with pretty severe dry eye but he is visual and with eye drops they are salvageable and will prevent further damage. He has a double ear infection that we will be treating right away & his heart sounds good. There are a few masses on his body which we will have evaluated by our veterinarian to decide if any treatment is necessary. If so, Edelstein will receive the recommended treatment. Edelstein would love a house that he could just hang out on the couch and live out his glory years. If you'd like to provide that house for him, please complete an application to adopt him at .northstarpets and be sure to ask for EDELSTEIN TX!

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.
