Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat). Boris Lexington, KY HERE HE IS! Boris will very make his presence VERY known when he arrives! Boris is a cute as a button, but is a VERY confident, bold, and 110% cattle brat pup! At about 10 weeks old, his 14 lb solid self is ready to find his forever home! Boris is NOT for the faint of heart! He is a puppy that while adorable he is going to challenge other dogs and humans. His confidence will need to be handled with experienced cattle dog owners. He is extremely food motivated, wicked smart, picks up on basic commands / tricks very quickly. He will likely do well in dog sports, or in working dog home. While Boris is a typical “mouthy” cattle dog pup, he is responding well to correction. He does “herd” ankles so a home with young kids would be very very challenging. He wants to please, loves fetch, tug, all toys and bones. He is doing well with crate and potty training but will need ongoing training as he is so young. He will need structure, a schedule and puppy classes are highly recommended. Boris is UTD on age appropriate vaccines and preventatives. He will be adopted out with a neuter contract.

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.
