Description
Dog Breed: English Mastiff (short coat). SISTERS ATHENA AND FRANKIE. They came to us from the same home and are the most opposite pair of BFFs you can imagine. Athena is everything a mastiff is supposed to be; Large, sweet, slow, and large. Frankie is a mutt of many colors with gorgeous blue eyes, she is about half her sister's size and twice her energy level. lol. Athena and Frankie are polar opposites but love each other dearly and we are offering them up as a team adoption. Adopted together there will only be one fee. Both girls know basic commands, walk pretty well on a leash, and both keep a spotlessly clean kennel!! Frankie needs her spay surgery before they can be adopted; but apply today and we have everything ready to send her home as soon as she is healed up!!

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.
