Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 400. Welcome Back, Scout Almost a year ago, Scout left us as a tiny baby. Now, just after celebrating his 1st birthday, he’s being welcomed back to Our Pack due to concerns about the sudden development of allergies to him in the home. Scout is a sweet little guy, weighing just 11.1 lbs, who has lived with children, a large dog, and a cat and does well with all! ❤️ He even sits on command like the good boy he is. Scout is a nervous little dude who does best when allowed to approach on his own terms. He especially seems to come out of his shell around kids—he may be hesitant about being approached quickly or picked up, but he’ll happily climb into their laps and give kisses. Once adults are at his level they've officially lost the rights to their shoulder , laps and anywhere else he can curl up and rest on. Scout does have a little “small-dog attitude” at times. He can resource guard food/bones, so separate feeding is recommended, and he sometimes doesn't want to share his human’s lap with another dog. He gives a warning and responds well to correction. His future family should be willing to work on these boundaries or simply keep him off furniture when other dogs are around. His previous family said he appears potty trained but also uses potty pads despite not wanting him to- , so some consistency may be needed while he adjusts to a new routine. Scout is a sweet young dog with a few quirks who just needs someone willing to give him patience, structure, and time to settle in. Welcome back, Scout. Your forever is still out there. Peep that LAST photo for a throwback to baby Scout!

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.
