Description
Dog Breed: Hound / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 400. Meet Junie! Junie is a hound mix, born approximately mid-November 2025, currently weighing in at a lean 27 pounds. This sweet girl is already spayed and ready to find her forever home. Junie's foster describes her as super docile and sweet — the kind of dog who just makes everything easier. She's fantastic with other dogs, gets along great with cats, and is wonderful with kids of all ages, including toddlers, making her a great fit for most households. Junie takes treats gently and settles into her crate without any fuss — she sleeps through the night in it and is completely content staying in her crate while her people are away. On leash, she walks nicely and will even let you know when she needs to go outside for a potty break, which makes house training so much easier. Junie is looking for a family who will love her gentle, easygoing spirit as much as her foster does. If you think Junie might be the perfect addition to your home, please reach out to learn more about the adoption process! If you are interested in adopting/meeting this pup , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: .starfishanimalrescue/adopt/dog-adoption-application . Your application will be reviewed by our team and if it is a good fit, we will be in touch! The adoption fee of $400 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm, and any other necessary medical treatment to ensure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe the breed, since our pups all come from shelters, we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *Please note that we are a foster home-based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.

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.
