Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed. Adoption Fee: $200. Meet Bella and her devoted brother, Baxter—a truly bonded pair of sweethearts who are ready to fill your home with twice the love! This sibling duo, approximately 5 years old, have been inseparable since they were puppies, originally coming from a breeder in Wisconsin. Unfortunately, their lives were recently turned upside down as they were lovingly surrendered following a death in their family and a change of living circumstances for their owner. Through this transition, their steadfast love for one another has been a comfort, making it clear that they would do best adopted together. Their family says the would do best in a home without young children as they are both very unsure and scared of young kids but may warm up to older (teen age +) children. They both loved their large fenced-in yard where they had the freedom to run and explore safely. They enjoy being outside but have never had the opportunity to walk on leashes, so they are working on their leash manners currently while with us and we already know they will catch on quick! They are very smart and eager to learn! These two are fully prepared to start their new lives right away: both are up to date on vaccinations, previously spayed/neutered, and have been microchipped for identification. If your heart and home have space for two amazing, devoted dogs, Bella and Baxter are ready to find their safe, forever landing spot with you! If you're interested in setting up a meet & greet or possibly adopting these two, please submit an online adoption application as the first step of the meet & greet process. This application can be found on our website at .wesavepets. Once the application is submitted, a Safe Haven volunteer will be in contact to discuss next steps.

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.
