Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler (medium coat). Leroy is the ultimate companion for anyone seeking a sweet, affectionate friend. He adores snuggling up in your chair while you enjoy your favorite shows, and he loves nothing more than to rub his face against yours when you give him some love. With his heartwarming habit of burrowing into warm blankets fresh from the dryer, Leroy is a bundle of adorable joy! This charming pup has a playful side, too! He’s a squeaky ball enthusiast who loves to fetch and will keep you entertained with his relentless squeaking. Leroy is well-behaved in the car and has completed obedience classes, showcasing his intelligence and eagerness to learn. While he’s a friendly guy with people—ask the vets and techs who adore him—Leroy does prefer a calm environment without other dogs. He thrives best in a home with a young, kid-free couple or a single person looking for a loyal companion. Leroy is a medium-energy dog who enjoys small walks and some fetching in the living room, making him the perfect pet for a relaxed lifestyle. Please note that Leroy needs a special home where he can be the only dog. He has had some challenges with dog interactions, so he’s managed carefully in his current environment. His sweet nature shines brightest when surrounded by humans who appreciate his uniqueness. If you’re ready to welcome a loving, cuddly companion, Leroy is excited to meet you!

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.
