Description
Dog Breed: Unknown breed. I have a 5year old red tri Aussie named Elsie. We need to find emergency placement for her after she bit our 19month old child. We have been trying to find a rescue or new home for her for the past year since she started growling and showing high stress when our child started crawling and moving. Placement has been difficult because she starts fights with our other dominant female husky and takes several days to warm up to new people. She is fine with new people as long as they don't reach for her, then she will growl or nip. She temporarily lived with our dog sitter for 5months and in a one dog/ no kid home really thrived and was even more willing to be around new people and take food and pets from them in the first interaction but our dog sitter started working 48hour shifts and sometimes longer and could not logistically or financially do dog care for that extended amount of a time and asked for us to take her back. She bit our daughter on the arm when a gate that separates them was accidentally not latched. She is an amazing dog and so loving and eager to please, she deserves a chance somewhere, she just needs a kid free home. She has also had extensive training with Huffman K9 and is very obedient with positive reinforcement. **** Breed: Aussie **** Pet Link: .nokillnetwork/adoption/pet_detail.php?petid=2192162&flag=1

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.
