Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler (short coat). Location: Ohio Meet Cricket! This little lady is ready to hop into your heart. Cricket is approximately 1.5yrs old and weighs just 22lbs. She has a very slight build and should stay quite small her whole life. Though Cricket is over a year old, most things in a normal household seem quite new to her - she will need a patient family who is willing to meet her where she is and help her gain confidence. She looks to people for guidance and loves treats, so with time she should blossom! She can get nippy when she's excited and may chew some inappropriate items but is easily redirected. Cricket is currently in a foster home with two adult male cattle dogs. She is very curious about them but thinks they play a little too strong for her liking. She would benefit from a calm, confident dog housemate or could do fine as a solo pup as she really loves her people. She does not seem to have much prey/chase interest. A fenced yard or other plan to safely contain Cricket outdoors is strongly preferred. She does need continued exposure to walking on a leash. She is moderate energy for a young herdy dog - loves to do zoomies around the yard and have a quick training session, will settle with a frozen treat after. She is quiet in her crate and seems housebroken with routine opportunities to go outside. Cricket is fostered in Cleveland, OH. She is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm/flea/tick medication, and microchipped. Please contact labuttcmgmail.

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.
