Description
Dog Breed: Belgian Shepherd Malinois (short coat). #A5749863 Shakira is a 7-year-old spayed female Belgian Malinois with a beautiful brown and black coat and a heart full of resilience. Weighing 66 lbs, she came in as a stray in January, was adopted, and sadly found herself back in the shelter in June. Even though she's currently recovering from a respiratory infection, she's happiest when she's out of the kennel spending time with volunteers. Shakira is intelligent, affectionate, and easy to handle. She walks beautifully on leash, shows signs of being housebroken, and would make an excellent walking or hiking companion. She can be a little nervous at first and seems cautious around other dogs, but she's tolerant and enjoys calm interactions. Her bark is mostly air, possibly from a past throat injury, but it doesn't stop her from wanting to connect with people. She deserves a family that will finally give her the stability and love she's been waiting for. -7 years old, spayed female, 66 lbs -Belgian Malinois, brown and black -Stray, adopted, then owner surrendered -Smart, affectionate, and loyal -Walks beautifully on leash -Shows signs of housebreaking -Medium energy, great walking companion -Tolerant of calm dogs -Recovering from a cold -Ready for a loving forever home SHAKIRA’S VIDEO: youtube/shorts/uoP6E4F_Y5A For more information, contact volunteer Lisa at lisaaunitedhopeforanimals Photo Credit wugrapher ---- Look up this or other animals at Baldwin Park Animal Care Center animalcare.lacounty.gov/view-our-animals/ Use their unique ID NUMBER.

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.
