Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed. Adoptable in: MA, RI, NH, CT, and VT Good with dogs: Yes Good with cats: Unknown, likely yes Good with kids: Yes, dog savvy children Crate trained: Yes House trained: Yes Meet Mishka! This cheerful pup is part heeler and a true heart-stealer. Mishka is affectionate, playful, and oh-so-sweet. While she loves to romp and play, she's also a calm little companion who’s happiest just being near her people. Whether she’s quietly curled up in a cozy corner or greeting you at the door with a bashful, full-body wiggle, Mishka’s gentle spirit shines through. She has a special way of lowering her head just a little when she’s feeling shy — it’s impossibly cute and makes everyone fall for her in an instant! Mishka is a social butterfly with other dogs and absolutely loves to play! She enjoys zooming around the yard with her doggie friends and has taken on the role of official puppy entertainer for a young pup in her foster home. She hasn’t been introduced to cats yet, but she’s shown she’s friendly and submissive when meeting new dogs and people. Mishka has done well with kids, and though she can be a little slower to warm up to men, once she knows they’re safe, she’s all in with tail wags and cuddles. When it comes to manners, Mishka is a star! She’s completely house trained and hasn’t had an accident in months. She’s fine being left out in the house and has only spent short periods (1–2 hours) crated during the day. She loves her treats (especially filled bones!) and will work for them as she is is smart, treat-motivated, and eager to please — making her a great candidate for continued training. This affectionate little sweetheart will make a wonderful, loyal companion to a lucky family. Looking for a loving sidekick with a gentle heart and a playful spirit? Mishka is ready to fill your life with tail wags, snuggles, and endless companionship! Please Note: All dogs are posted on our website until they are officially adopted.

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.
