Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). This sweet gal warms up quickly and has a gentle, loving heart once she feels secure. She enjoys spending time with her people, exploring at her own pace, and building confidence through positive-reinforcement training as she learns the basics. With a positive home history with dogs, cats, and kids, sheâs shown she can be a wonderful companion. Because she can be timid at first, sheâll do best with an experienced owner and older kids who can go slow, use treats, and introduce her to new people with fear-free methods. With patience, kindness, and gentle guidance, sheâll blossom into the affectionate, loyal friend sheâs meant to be.

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.
