Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Mixed (medium coat). Meet Onyx! This adorable, resilient little lovebug doesn't quite walk in a straight line, but he knows exactly how to walk straight into your heart. Onyx's foster reports: `Onyx a 5-month-old male neutered pit mix. Onyx is a special guy with a big heart and lots of love to give. He is not your typical ordinary pup and can sometimes be uncoordinated and has a little peep to his step. Onyx currently lives with other dogs and gets along great he ideally would do better in a home with bigger dogs as he can be clumsy. Some of his favorite activities are going on long walks and hikes he enjoys his car rides and toys. Onyx is currently crate trained and will kennel on command. He knows sit, down stay and âfreeâ when you want him to come out of his kennel. He also waits patiently for his meals and eats on command. He has been around kids various ages and has had some kitten exposure. Kitties are ok with supervision as he doesn't realize how big he is.` The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Foundation is now offering âPawsitivity Bucksâ with every dog adoption. This $200 training voucher is a way for newly adopted canines and their guardians to connect with local positive reinforcement based behavior consultants and get their relationship started off on the right paw! Please note: Our Santa Cruz locationâs Shelter hours are 11-6pm, 7 days a week!

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.
