Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler (short coat). Location: VA Meet Smokey — your next adventure buddy! This boy has already lived a lifetime of stories, and he’s not even a year old yet! Smokey has survived serious burn injuries, life as a stray, and is now recovering from kennel cough… but you’d never know it from his attitude. This guy is all smiles, tail wags, and pure joy. Smokey LOVES everyone he meets — dogs, people, you name it. He’s a happy-go-lucky goofball who’s always ready to play, cuddle, and give about 1,000 kisses (and maybe a few surprise toe licks… consent is not really his strong suit.) Because he didn’t get the best start in life, Smokey’s still learning how to be a polite pup. He’s a bit of a bull in a china shop when it comes to manners — we’re talking house training, “four paws on the floor,” waiting for dinner, and not chasing the kitties just because he wants to play. A patient adopter who can help him learn the ropes will get a lifetime of love (and a workout for sure.. Smokey is an Australian Cattle Dog mix who’ll likely weigh around 60 lbs when he’s filled out. He’s still a big puppy at heart, so families with small kids or cats should consider if his bouncy energy is the right fit. If you’re looking for a loyal, goofy, adventurous sidekick who’ll love you endlessly — Smokey’s your guy. Interested?

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.
