Description
Dog Breed: 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. FOSTER NEEDED Polly is a 5-year-old female Terrier mix with a special note on her bio because, while she’s very adoptable, she’s heartworm positive. She needs a foster home during her treatment, which PAHS will fully cover, including food, bedding, and other essentials. Polly and her puppies were found on Highway 82 and brought to PAHS, and now all her pups have been adopted. She has a short brown coat with white markings and a scruffy, wiry texture, and weighs just 21 pounds—she’s a petite girl. Polly is incredibly sweet, loving, and friendly with everyone, including kids and other dogs. Please consider letting her stay with you while she undergoes treatment. For more info about fostering Polly, visit the shelter or call 334-358-2882, Monday-Saturday, 11-4. 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.
