Description
Dog Breed: Cattle Dog / Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (long coat). Whiskey is a smart, spunky, and sweet young cattle dog mix who is learning confidence and social skills after an early puppyhood without many opportunities to develop either. She is now about 11 to 12 months old and has been working with a trainer to learn leash skills, become more confident in new situations, and enjoy life to the fullest. In the past six weeks or so she has been crate trained, potty trained; learned sit, down, and stay; developed a lovely recall and pretty decent leash manners; learned a shaping game; and shown some aptitude for scent work. We think Whiskey would do best with a female handler in a home with another friendly dog and no small (pre-teen) children. She is spayed and up-to-date on vaccinations and needs a family or person who will continue to help her build confidence and gain skills. She will reward the right owner with her trust and a lifetime of loyalty.

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.
