Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Nala (A142495) is a 7-month-old pit mix who weighed nearly 40 lbs at intake! 06/13/26 This super sweet and affectionate little lady is Nala! Nala was brought to the shelter after she sustained injuries from jumping out of the back of a pickup truck. She was sent to the vet and given medciation, and now she is ready to find her new forever home! During her veterinary ordeal, Nala has been an absolute love to everyone she has interacted with! She was said to do well with all humans. She will bark at other dogs until a proper introduction is done. However, it is best she goes to a home without cats because she likes to chase them! Miss Nala knows how to sit, but she could benefit from learning other commands and manners. She would likely do great in a basic obedience class with a certified trainer! She is a young dog that will need help with becoming fully potty trained. She was, however, said to be kennel trained. She has been known to get into the trash when given the chance, and she can be vocal at time. She absolutely loves attention and will crawl right into your lap, asking for it! If you are interested in meeting Miss Nala, please give the shelter a call!

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.
