Description
Dog Breed: Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie / Mixed (medium coat). This little cutie is super sweet MIA, a 2-year-old, 7 pound, Yorkshire Terrier mix. Mia can be a bit timid at first when meeting new people and new dogs, but she warms up very quickly. Once she meets a dog, she loves being with them. She’s happy to share your lap and hang out with you. Mia also loves treats. Mia loves to play with toys, walks well on a leash, and prefers to sleep on/in the bed with her foster parents. She is crate trained but really doesn’t like it much. Mia is housebroken; if it’s cold and snowy outside she prefers to use potty-pads. Mia has the mischievousness and determined nature of a Terrier - she is very fun, active, girl. ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS: Mia must have another dog in the home to play with and for confidence, and a securely fenced-in yard. Mia is used to having her people home more than not so she is not a candidate for adoption to a household who is gone a full day; she handles no more than four hours. Mia was surrendered by her owners, along with two other dogs, after their family's home was destroyed by fire on New Years Eve day and they had no place to live. She has lived with adults and teenagers. This dog has been examined by licensed veterinarians, provided inoculations, been tested for diseases, dewormed, spayed, and microchipped.

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.
