Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Meet Ahsoka, at only 1 year Ahsoka found herself here at our shelter being dropped off as a stray. She was scared and didn't understand what was going on. Her reaction was to try to scare off shelter staff by growling and lounging but never making contact. As she learned that she was safe and no one was going to harm her she quickly came out of her shell. Now happy to see those she trust every day, she wags her tail in excitement every morning knowing she is loved. Ahsoka is still shy with other dogs and would be more comfortable being the dominant dog and nothing bigger than her as that's intimidating for her. She also will need a cat free home as she looks at them as toys. Ahsoka has played with staff members children and would do good in a home with respectful children. We would not recommend her in a home with children who will scare her by running to quickly or have fast movements. Ahsoka's ideal home would have a fenced in back yard, not mandatory but she really likes to zoom around the fenced area here at the AWL. If you are willing to spend some time and let Ahsoka open up to you, you will have the most loving K-9 companion! Come meet Ahsoka and see if she could be your perfect match.Give the shelter a call at (574) 267-3008 or email them at infoawlwarsaw if you have any questions about me! If not, stop by the shelter at 1048 S 325 E in Pierceton, IN 46562 to look at me! No appointments necessary!

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.
