Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat). Location: Athens, GA. Meet Murphy! This 12-week-old Heeler mix is playful, smart, and full of potential. His mom is a Heeler, and while we don’t know who dad is, we expect Murphy to grow into a medium-sized dog. He’s quick to learn, loves chasing balls and chewing sticks, and is always up for some fun. Murphy lives with four adult dogs and two cats—he’s respectful of their space but always hopeful someone will want to play. He’s crate-trained for his age (sleeps through the night like a champ!) and doing great with leash training. House training is in progress, and he’s getting the hang of it. Murphy would be a great fit for an active home—especially one that enjoys walks, hikes, or has other playful pets. He’s a smart pup who will thrive with regular training and structure. Without it, he’s clever enough to find some mischief on his own. Like any young puppy, he’s still in the bitey stage, but he’s also affectionate, eager to please, and ready to bond with his people. If you’re looking for a fun, high-potential pup to raise and adventure with, Murphy is your guy. Contact saraevermorephoto. Complete an Application: search.app/x6VdVLYHVyXCqR9G7

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.
