Description
Dog Breed: Cattle Dog / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: $175.00. Hi! I’m Adelaide, a 40 pound, 5 year old cattle dog. My friends call me Addy. My breed comes from Australia but the police found me wandering in Kent. I was scared and lonely. Happier now at my foster home which has a big yard, one big human, one small human, and two playmates. My foster mom always tells me how beautiful and good I am. I’m house trained, not food or toy aggressive, love car rides, and although timid at first, I warm up to people quickly. Things to work on include pulling on a leash especially when I see critters ahead and reacting to new dogs and sounds. Because of my timidity and reactiveness, I don’t give a good first impression but if you give me a chance, I’ll make a very loyal and loving companion. Foster mom Donna here. Addy is a delightful dog full of contrast. She has high energy outside but calm inside. She can be independent but also playful and affectionate. She likes people of all ages but can get nervous if too many new ones all at once. I leave her alone in the house with no crate and she’s been good. Her ideal owner will love the outdoors and have a yard where she can run free and explore. We have recently allowed her to be off leash and she’s been good at recall but took a few months to get her there. Thus a fence would be ideal.

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.
