Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler (short coat). MEET MATER!!! Mater is a one-year-old Red Heeler with a big heart and even bigger energy! While he can be a little shy at first, once he’s comfortable, his fun-loving personality shines through. He absolutely loves playing with his foster sisters — both big and small — and would do well in a home with other dogs, as long as introductions are done slowly. This smart boy has already mastered the basics (sit, lay down, come, stay) and even taught himself how to use the doggy door! He’s good on a leash, though his excitement to explore means he’ll benefit from continued training and structure. Mater is high-energy and thrives in an active home where he’ll get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation to keep him out of trouble. After a day of fun, he’s happy to wind down with snuggles on the couch or some quiet time in his crate. Ready to meet Mater? Apply today: .underdogaz/adoption-application

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.
