Description
Posted Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (medium coat). A1209281 Fredrick is a 1½-year-old, 57-pound, neutered male, Australian Cattle Dog mix-type dog. He is a surrender due to his `aggressive behavior` when corrected inappropriately. He does all right on a leash, pulling with some excitement to be out and about. He does know how to `sit` and `stay` on cue, but is distracted easily. He was not happy with us when he was vaccinated and got a little grumbly, but we haven't seen any `aggressive` behavior from him toward people. He is reactive with barking and lunging when he sees other dogs in his kennel, however, he has done great in our dog play groups. A `meet and greet` is recommended if you have another dog at home. Fredrick is friendly and playful and waiting for a second chance at a forever home.

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.
