Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat). Hello future family! My name is Koda and I am one handsome little dude, right????? I am a nine pound, nine to ten week old boy and let me tell you about my beginning. Well at least the part mama knows about! If you can believe it, my siblings and I were left beside the road in a cardboard box! Yup you read right! And boy was it hot in that box in KY! We were all pretty skinny and really really hungry! Luckily somebody found us and reached out to ACDRA hoping they could help us out! So here we are! My sister and I landed in upstate NY, they told us it would be cooler but they lied! Let me tell you more about myself since arriving here in NY! I am living with nine other dogs (one is my annoying sister Kaya, can't wait for her to move out). The others range in age from 3-13 years and I have learned pretty quickly which ones are cranky senior citizens. I don't even try to play with them as they let me know pretty quickly there were not up to puppy antics. The younger ones are all right though and we have been having some pretty good play time! I am working really hard on potty training and have only had a few accidents inside when mama doesn't pay attention to my signals. I sleep pretty well through the night in my crate with my sister or sometimes on the couch with mama as I really like to snuggle up close and I really like a soft pillow to put my head on! I have discovered toys and they are a lot of fun, especially when I can tug them away from my sister. Nylabones are pretty fun and keep my teeth busy. I really like bully sticks too! I really do like to roll in the grass and love to explore so mama thinks when I get big enough I will really make a great hiking partner. Mama says I should mention I do have an "off" switch and do not have to be on the go all the time, I am up for a good movie night on the couch. If you think I will be a great addition to your family, hit up the website and submit an application. My foster mom is happy to answer any questions; just send her an email at mrulffesgmail. Don't wait too long as mama says a boy this handsome is gonna have more than one family that wants to make him the newest addition to their family! Foster mom here! Koda and his sister have been two of the easiest puppies we have fostered. They don't chew, are housetraining pretty quickly, sleep through the night, play well with all of our dogs (except the two cranky seniors) and love to be touched and loved on. He has had all age appropriate vaccines, but will need boosters down the road. He is microchipped and will come with a neuter contract. He is being fostered in Canton, NY but please don't let distance deter you, we are always willing to drive a few hours to get him to the perfect home! Please contact mrulffesgmail.

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.
