Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. At 6 years old, Kiva should be spending her days curled up on a soft bed, not waiting in a shelter kennel. Life hasn’t always been kind to this sweet girl. The teeth she has left are in rough shape, a heartbreaking reminder that she never had the love and care she deserved. We may never know exactly what she’s been through, but we do know this: it never took away her gentle spirit. Despite everything, Kiva is loving, trusting, and incredibly sweet. She leans into affection with quiet gratitude and gazes up at you with soft eyes that seem to ask for nothing more than kindness. At just 36 lbs., Kiva is the perfect size for a cozy companion. She doesn’t need a perfect home—just a compassionate one. A place where she can finally receive the care, comfort, and love she’s been missing for far too long. Some dogs break your heart because of what they’ve endured. Kiva is one of those dogs. But she’s also the kind who will put it back together again with her unwavering love. Please help us give this deserving girl the second chance she’s waited so long for.

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.
