Dog Breed: Cattle Dog / Corgi / Mixed (short coat). Please contact Paul Slebzak (paulsluckydoganimalrescue) for more information about this pet. cutie pie looking for forever family! LINDA NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Linda Best Guess for Breed: Cattle dog and corgi mix Best Guess for Age: 3.5 years as of December 2025 SEX: Female Approximate Weight: 21 lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen her with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters! Currently Living at: South Carolina shelter - needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to get up here! Special adoption considerations: Linda is a truly Lucky Dog. She tested positive for heartworms, but landed in a place where heartworm treatment is provided! Heartworm is not contagious to people or other pets, but results from mosquito bites. Heartworm, if left untreated, is life threatening, but after treatment, dogs that were heartworm positive should suffer no significant long-term effects so long as they are kept on a monthly heartworm preventative. Heartworm dogs can resume full active and normal lives, but need to be kept calm for 4-6 weeks after treatment. We are happy to discuss where in the treatment process this Lucky Dog is in right now! Just email the adoption coordinator - the address is at lower left! Linda is Looking For: Her forever home! We don't know her back story but it might not have been all that awesome. Her gait is a bit off in the left hip. X-rays show old pelvic fractures that healed a bit off and now her range of motion in that leg is a bit off. Know what's not off? Her love, her loyalty, and her sense of adventure. Linda can't wait for her fresh start - can't wait to get her own family for all the adventures that well-loved family pets can get - and all those snuggles. She has so many adoring gazes, so much loyal companionship to offer. What do you say? Is she the one you see by your side? What My Foster Says About Me: We will update this once she has spent time in foster care. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training. TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $475, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment.

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.
