Description
Dog Breed: Cane Corso Mastiff / Pit Bull Terrier (short coat). Adoption Fee: 410. PEPPA (watch my video!) Female ~7 months old Cane Corso mix 37 lbs. Microchipped, up-to-date on core vaccines and takes monthly flea/tick/heartworm prevention Amazing with dogs and kids; untested with cats Sweet, little Peppa landed at the Prince George’s County Animal Shelter in mid-August and IMMEDIATELY became a volunteer favorite! Her little nubbin of a tail never stops wiggling and she just adores everyone she meets! LOVEPAWS was able to swoop in and save this girl so she can begin her path to healing. Right now she’s battling: An upper respiratory infection (hello, boogers!) Painful entropion in both eyes (we have surgery scheduled) A positive erlichia test (100% preventable with monthly flea/tick prevention!) ✂️ A docked tail that’s still healing ⚖️ Severe underweight — she came into the shelter thin and kept losing weight while there. She’s now only 37 lbs We believe (and a vet confirmed!) that she’s likely around 7 months old and a Cane Corso mix. Peppa loves stuffies and chews, but more than anything, she just wants to be with her people. She adores other dogs and when it's time to be quiet, she always seeks out her foster brother to snuggle up and nap with. We CANNOT WAIT for her to learn that the world is safe ✨, that no one is going to hurt her, and that from here on out, she will only know love. Interested in adopting? Of course you are!

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.
