Description
Posted Breed: Cattle Dog (short coat). *This is a courtesy listing.* Meet Sky! Sky is an 8.5 yr. old cattle dog/blue heeler. She is super loving and wants nothing more than to be next to the person who loves her. Unfortunately, Sky must be rehomed due to a divorce wherein neither party cannot provide responsible care. She deserves a loving home for her golden years where she will be pampered and adored. In return, Sky will be your devoted best friend! Sky is accustomed to living with another dog and would enjoy having a canine sibling again. However, she is not good with cats. Sky is not food aggressive and is very tolerant to humans around her during mealtime. However, she needs her own space to eat away from other faster-eating dogs who might try to take her food. Sky would benefit from some extra TLC in her new home. She has been diagnosed with hypoalbuminemia, which is a protein metabolizing deficiency. To manage this condition, she is on Prednisone and eats high protein puppy food. Prior to this condition being diagnosed correctly, she was underfed, and as a result, lost considerable weight. Her new family will need to be committed to helping Sky regain weight and strength. Then, they will see how much she enjoys going on long walks and playing fetch! If you have a spot in your heart for beautiful Sky, please contact Alison at 619-669-5462 or fenali3gmail *Frosted Faces Foundation has not assessed this dog medically or behaviorally.*

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.
