Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed. Meet Pippa! Pippa is a 6-month-old terrier/pit mix with a big personality who is determined to make up for lost puppy time. Shortly after arriving at the shelter, she suffered a leg injury that required surgery. Like many puppy injuries, it happened in the blink of an eye—one excited leap to greet a volunteer was all it took. Thanks to the support of our community and the dedication of her foster family, Pippa made a fantastic recovery and is finally ready to find her forever home. Now that she's cleared to be a puppy again, Pippa is turning every day into an adventure! She marches to the beat of her own drum, but after spending much of her puppyhood on exercise restriction, can you really blame her? She loves her chew toys, running through the grass, soaking up belly rubs, and tagging along with her people wherever they go. In foster care, Pippa has made great progress with her training. She knows basic cues like sit and wait, is eager to engage in training—especially when treats are involved—and is well on her way to being house trained. Of course, as with all sweet puppies, she has a lot of energy, and will also benefit from continued training to teach her good manners that will last a lifetime. Pippa can live with other dogs, though she’ll benefit from continued practice with social skills and would do best with a patient canine companion who can keep up with her energy. She has not yet had formal cat testing. If you're looking for a resilient, fun-loving puppy who is ready to experience everything life has to offer, Pippa is waiting to meet you!

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.
