Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Please note that PAHS does NOT do online adoption applications. You must come to the shelter in person to meet the PAHS pets. Ada is a 2-year-old female Pit Bull Terrier mix listed as “Special Needs” because she’s tested heartworm positive. She’ll need about three months in a foster home while she undergoes treatment, which PAHS will fully cover, providing food, bedding, and anything else to keep her comfortable. Ada came to PAHS as a stray in rough shape—pregnant, with broken teeth, and a poor coat. Now, her coat is shiny and beautiful! She’s brown with white markings, weighs 57 pounds, and is a big, sweet girl. Despite her past, Ada is incredibly gentle, calm, friendly with everyone, including kids and other dogs, and she is eager to please. Just four days after arriving, she gave birth to puppies, but sadly only one, Hammy, survived—she’s also available for adoption. Ada deserves a fresh start, but first needs to complete her heartworm treatments. Please consider fostering her during this time; the staff would be thrilled to introduce you to her. Dog/puppy adoption fees are $120. Cat/kitten adoption fees are $75. All pets will be spayed/neutered before adoption; or you will be given a discount spay/neuter certificate to be used at participating vet clinics to help with the cost of spay/neuter. Our adoption fees cover a microchip, microchip registration, deworming, vaccinations (as age and law requires), and a courtesy vet exam at participating offices. Unless otherwise indicated under "special needs" our dogs have screened heart worm negative. *****Please note that PAHS does NOT do online adoption applications.

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.
