Description
Dog Breed: Poodle (unknown type) / Mixed. Meet Fillmore! Fillmore is a 8-9 year-old, 13-pound Shih Tzu mix with a huge personality and an even bigger heart! Despite having very limited vision, this happy little guy doesn’t let anything slow him down. He’s curious, playful, affectionate, and almost always has his tail wagging. Fillmore loves exploring, sniffing around the yard, playing with other dogs, eating, and finding a cozy lap for a nap. He’s very food motivated and has quickly learned the layout of his foster home, navigating stairs, furniture, and his surroundings with impressive confidence. Fillmore would love a canine playmate and enjoys having other dogs around. Because of his limited vision, he does best with people who understand that he needs communication through voice, sound, and touch rather than visual cues. A securely fenced yard is essential, and young children may be too unpredictable for him. He can be a little vocal when excited—especially when meals or playtime are involved—and he may occasionally voice his opinion when he thinks he’s been unfairly corrected. But underneath all that personality is an incredibly sweet, resilient little dog who has adapted beautifully to his world. If you’re looking for a happy, cuddly, curious companion who sees life as an adventure, Fillmore might be your guy! Dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-serve basis. We strive to find the perfect home for each animal. Applications may take up to 48 hours to process. All CAWS animals are fixed, microchipped, and vaccinated. His adoption fee is $200.

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.
