Description
Posted Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat). Please contact Tonya Griffith (TMSGriffithaol) for more information about this pet. Posted 8/23/15, and pictures taken 8/4/15. The owner died on 6/26/15 in Ben Wheeler, TX. The mother was a Blue Heeler. While we had the dogs at the man's house posted for the family to try to find homes for them, someone let the gate open to the dog pen, letting her mother and three siblings out, and her mother and one sibling were killed by something or someone. Rhea was the third one that was missing, but she was found on 7/17/15, and reunited with her sister Rayna. She can dig under a fence if she wants to, so she will need to be in a secure yard, or crated when gone. Rhea is more social with people than Rayna, but they are both very sweet and making very good progress with us. They both come up to me, and loves treats. D.O.B.: ? 2009 Weight: 31.1 - 7/23/15 $25 adoption fee.

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.
