Description
Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Hi there! I’m Dayla, a 5-year-old brown and white sweetheart clocking in at an easy, compact 38 pounds! If your house could use a daily dose of goofy joy, wait until you see my signature happy bounce—the shelter team says it’s impossible not to smile when my paws get going! I’m an easygoing, low-to-medium energy lady who is instantly in love with anyone willing to give me a little attention. While I might be mid-sized on the scale, my heart is convinced I am a tiny lap dog. My favorite move is climbing right up for a cuddle the second you sit down! I’m super tolerant and love making friends with people, kiddos, and other dogs. I even had a blast roughhousing in a playgroup with four pups who were all way bigger than me! (Pro tip: if you keep a couple of snacks in your pocket, I'll be your shadow for life. ) The boring adult stuff? I’ve already aced it. I’m completely house-trained, walk like an absolute dream on leash, and take kennel stays with easygoing stride! I’m also spayed, microchipped, and fully vaccinated. If you’ve got an open spot on the couch and a soft spot for happy little hoppers, come by and meet me today!

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.
