Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (medium coat). Cattle Dog mix male puppy Welcome Lobo from Tulare County Animal Services. This guy unfortunately was an owner surrender. It appears he was adopted from this same shelter as a pup and then returned 6 months later. This is not uncommon - that cute little puppy turns into a dog with mental and physical needs that when put in inexperienced or “too busy” hands…or any of the other excuses we hear on a daily basis…it’s problematic. This guy lost his puppyhood. Good news, it’s not too late! Lobo is only 8 months old and has plenty of potential. We promised we wouldn’t fail him this time around. Here is what his foster has to report after only a few hours: “Ok. We have been home for a bit…this guy is WOW so far! Just got done with a gentle play session. He loves tug, chase, and toys of all kinds. Very food motivated. He has a very soft mouth, but he does like to use it (as if he’s still a pup). So far, an easy correction is all he needs. I sat with him after play time and he immediately sat on my lap. He is certainly a lap dog. He could use a toy nearby at all times to help alleviate stress and the ‘chewies.’ He absolutely loves the kiddie pool and playing in water. He might be part fish.” We know from shelter staff that he is people and dog friendly. He is a 45lb cattle dog mix, microchipped, neutered, and UTD on vaccines. Lobo is in Atascadero, CA More photos and updates: .facebook/media/set/?set=a.1551057509189231&type=3 Interested in Lobo? Please complete an application at: bit.ly/CCHDR_App

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.
