Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat). Location: ME Please allow me to introduce you to Ghost, a 14-week-old , 11 pound black and white ACD female. Ghost immediately integrated into her foster home along with her brother Gremlin, also 14 weeks, black and white. As siblings , Ghost and Gremlin enjoy their life together in their foster home but both exhibit a willingness to be independent. Ghost is very alert and attentive to the humans around her, she enjoys responding to commands and is doing quite well on leash training. Inside her home she remains respectful to the belongings and enjoys chewing on stuffed toys while resting in her posh bed. She identifies her kennel as a quiet and safe place that she retreats to whenever she wants some alone time. As for her personality, she exhibits a high degree of intelligence and is highly affectionate. She has a good appetite and is growing quickly. S he is well on her way to potty training outside ( but at this time may have a mistake or two indoors if her attempt to alert us is overlooked ) and she has a good start on many basic commands like sit, stay, come and “NO”. She is good aroun d adults and kids, other dogs and comfortable around cats. When kenneled or in a vehicle she is qui e t.

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.
