Description
Dog Breed: Terrier. Nyla is 4 years old, 47 lbs, and absolutely one of a kind. She has the coolest scruffy shepherd-mix look, but it’s those stunning golden-brown eyes that really stop you in your tracks. She’s still very new to the shelter and figuring out her new surroundings, but even while unsure, Nyla has been incredibly sweet and gentle with people. She also tested wonderfully with both male and female dogs, which makes this girl even more special. Underneath that scruffy coat is a soft-hearted girl who just needs a little time, love, and a safe place to land. Nyla shouldn’t have to get used to shelter life—she deserves a home of her own.

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.
