Harriet - Wirehaired Terrier and Mixed Breed Dog Available for Adoption in Montgomery, Alabama

Check out this pretty girl that looks like she is wearing a tuxedo! Her name is Harriet and she is an eighteen-month-old terrier mix. She was picked up from the yard of a kind neighbor who had called Animal Control for a stray dog. Harriet waited her allotted time and was never claimed. She is now available for adoption. Harriet has all of her vaccinations, she has a microchip, and she has been spayed. One "slight" problem did show up on her health check up. Harriet is heartworm positive. We are not worried though, because we already have her treatment set up! We would love for Harriet to have a foster home for treatment and then hopefully that foster will make Harriet a permanent member of the family! She is adorable!

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.

The Wirehaired Terrier is a charming and energetic dog breed known for its shaggy coat and lively personality. Originating from terriers bred for hunting small game, they are intelligent, spirited, and make loyal companions. Their wiry coat requires regular grooming to prevent matting, and they thrive on ample exercise and mental stimulation. With proper training and socialization, Wirehaired Terriers can be excellent family pets, excelling in activities such as agility and obedience.
