Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Cedar Rapids, Iowa

Meet Scentiva

This sweet girl is in her prime at about 1–2 years old, 25-30lbs, and ready to find her perfect match! Scentiva is the kind of companion who brings a calm, gentle energy wherever she goes. She loves spending time with other dogs and plays beautifully—never pushy, never dominant, just happy to be part of the fun. We also think she would be just fine with cats, after a proper introduction!

At home, she’s a quiet soul who enjoys the simple things: a cozy spot, a good chew bone, and peaceful surroundings. She’s housebroken (yes, already!) and is currently learning the ropes of leash walking—making great progress every day.

Scentiva is also discovering how nice affection can be. She prefers to take things at her own pace and will sweetly let you know when she’s ready for pets—those moments feel extra special

Curious and observant, she takes in every sound around her with interest, but she’s never fearful—just thoughtfully exploring the world.

Scentiva would thrive in a home that can provide consistent training to help her continue building confidence and skills. She’d absolutely love having another dog as a playmate, but she’d also be happy as your one-and-only. Because she’s still a young pup who can get a little excited (and may jump now and then), she’d do best with older children who understand her playful energy.

If you’re looking for a gentle, easygoing companion with a playful side and a heart full of quiet love, Scentiva might be your girl

Apply at adoptapal.org/adopt to meet her! She is spayed, microchipped, vaccinated, and comes with a free month of pet insurance. ADOPTION FEE IS $475.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
