Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: $300. Hey all, I'm Nova a 37#, 14 month old female, Austrailian Cattle Dog who just arrived in town from WV. I'm a HAPPY HAPPY gal. My owner went to jail when I was a wee pup, a lady took me in, but her yard was small so If outside I've always had to be on a chain. Ugh!that has been living in a home but only out on a short chain. Inside I did learn house manors: Good Stuff - House and Crate trained, take treats nicely, sit, shake, play ball, love LOVE Belly Rubs, great at tug with a rope and give the sweetest kisses! Walking on leash is OK, not super... I chew on chew toys only so far! Bad Stuff - Persistence in begging (I was given human food as treats), reaching up on you to with my paws and have a stubburn streak! (working on these things) I do have LOTS of energy and love to run and play with people or other dogs! Dogs, kids, adults, ALL ARE MY BUDDIES! I DO COME WHEN CALLED from a DISTANCE, so a fence requirement will be discussed pending yard size and situation. So, get off your duff, complete an application. Let's ring in the New Year together start 2026 with a BANG! Check out my photo shoot and VIDEO! Interested in meeting me? Complete an on-line application! Pa Kennel License: 04736

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.
