Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat). Trixie is a Blue Heeler mix, but seems to be all herding dog. She is in a home with three other puppies and the young family can only keep two pups. This is a courtesy posting as we are unable to take Trixie into foster care at this time. However, we will provide vaccinations and spay for anyone interested in adopting. Trixie was a bit shy at first but is coming out of her shell. She is fine with other dogs and children and has been okay around the family cat. We fostered some of her siblings earlier this summer and they were terrific dogs so we expect Trixie will be similar--responsive and easy to train.

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.
