Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Nelly came to us due to a housing situation, and is happy to have our volunteers spending time with her and giving her attention. She is a well-loved three year old, and it is by no fault of her own that she ended up at the shelter. While her family had hoped to rectify the situation, she is still in our care, and we are actively seeking a home for her. She is lovely with other dogs, and is a good playmate to them! Come visit, and see what you think! PLEASE NOTE: This pet has been posted by Friends of Campbell County Animal Control, Rustburg, VA. For questions about the pet, please email us at FOACinfogmail.

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.
