Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (medium coat). We named this guy Bandit because heâs EXTREMELY likely to steal your heart. Heâs affectionate, but not needy, and has a tragic backstory to boot. Whatâs not to love! Bandit came to us on 1/23/25, injured and caked with dried mud. He had lots of puncture wounds all over, but mostly on his legs. His rear legs were the most seriously injured. It seemed like heâd been attacked by another animal. X-Rays showed he had old fractures of his right tibia and fibula. Our on staff medical team initially though he would require an amputation, but thankfully with time and a little extra TLC he healed to the point where it was no longer necessary. He is able to walk and run easily, though he does occasionally throw in a bit of a limp to remind you of how far heâs come. Now that he doesnât have any injuries to distract you, you can focus on how sweet and what a gentleman he is. Heâs a very good boy with great leash manners. Heâs a calm guy with a versatile energy level. When itâs playtime heâs got lots of energy, but when itâs time to relax heâs perfectly content to chill out and cuddle. Heâs perfectly happy to entertain himself by exploring and sniffing around, but his favorite thing in the world is to be loved on. Heâll sit sweetly by your side for as long as youâll pet him, and heâll only interrupt you to give you some kisses as a thank you. He sits and shakes on command, and he always takes his treats so nicely from you. Heâs also proven himself to already be potty trained! Kids and other dogs alike are a yes for him. Heâs very friendly and has gotten along well with everyone heâs met so far â including younger, special needs children. So go ahead, let Bandit steal your heart! Heâll take great care of it and is looking forward to becoming your lifelong best friend.

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.
