Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler. Harley is a 4-year-old Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler and the happiest, friendliest dog you'll ever meet! At 67 pounds, she’s an affectionate cuddlebug who loves attention, belly rubs, and being part of the action. Harley adjusted well to her foster home and has fit in really well. It did not take her long to get used to her new surroundings and routines. She is fully house-trained and doing well with crate training, getting more comfortable with her crate every day. Harley can be vocal at times -- she wants to be in on the conversation! -- so a home without shared walls (no townhomes/apartments) will be required. Whether it's a neighborhood walk, a game of tug-of-war, or just lounging on the couch, Harley is all in. She loves to play fetch, so a fenced yard would be ideal, but a long cable also does the trick for play time. Harley does well with other dogs and usually wants to play, though sometimes more cautious when meeting. She adores kids and has done well with 8-9 year-olds, taking corrections easily. She does not have experience with cats. If you're looking for a fun-loving best friend with a heart full of love (and a soft spot for belly rubs), Harley could be the one for you! If you are interested in Harley, fill out an application at this link to get the ball rolling - pethavenmn/adopt/adoptable-dogs/dog-adoption-application/ The adoption fee is $450. Adoption fee includes spay/neuter, heartworm/Lyme test, all age-appropriate vaccinations (distemper, rabies, and Bordetella), heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, and microchip implant (including registration). Adoption fees INCLUDE a mandatory sales tax of 7.525%. Age and breed are based on veterinarian and intake professional’s recommendation and not guaranteed as a rescue animal’s history is often unknown. Due to post-adoption services provided, we prefer to adopt within a 150-mile radius of the Twin Cities. However, we will consider up to 250 miles if the foster agrees to travel requirements and staff approval.

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.
