Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). River (A142322) is a 2-year-old Pitbull mix who weighed 66.6 pounds on intake! 05/28/26 This is River! River was surrendered to the shelter due to a family emergency, not his own fault. River was born in their home and has not met many new people in his life. We encourage his next owner to work with a certified trainer to continue building his confidence and to learn a trick or two! He was described as an outgoing, friendly, and affectionate dog in the home. He was said to love his head being rubbed and finds his kennel to be his safe place! River was also noted to be kennel trained and to ride well in a car! River is a young boy and can be mischievous at times like jumping on the counters and getting into the trash when unsupervised. Providing him with plenty of mental and physical stimulation is important. If you are interested in meeting River, please let us know!

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.
