Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat). Meet Lucky: A Loyal Shadow with a Gentle Heart Lucky is a sweet 9-year-old cattle dog mix with a calm spirit, a soft heart, and a deep love for being near his people. After the passing of his male owner, he settled into foster life and has shown everyone what a steady, affectionate companion he can be. Lucky is happiest indoors, padding from room to room as his foster mom’s loyal little shadow. He is leash trained, has excellent recall, and comes running with enthusiasm when called. When new people arrive, he may bark at first, but he settles quickly once he understands everything is okay. Lucky can coexist with other dogs, though he has his preferences and may not enjoy every canine friend he meets. He ignores cats, making him an easygoing presence around feline friends. He is crate-trained, but he rarely needs one because he does so well with his house manners and outdoor routine. He enjoys a little playtime, but he is just as content curling up on the couch for a quiet snuggle. Lucky would thrive in a quiet, easygoing home, especially with a retired person or couple who would enjoy having a devoted companion nearby. He would be okay with older children, but younger children are not a good fit for him. If you are looking for a gentle soul who will bring warmth, loyalty, and steady love into your days, Lucky may be the perfect match. Lucky is being fostered in Plymouth, IN Please contact cripecaseygmail if you have any questions about Lucky. You can complete an application to adopt Lucky or any of the dogs on our website at ebyebcrescue . *** The potential adopter will get a refund on the Application Fee if it’s determined by the Foster Parent that it’s not a good match for the dog and the dog for them, if we do not process their application.

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.
