Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler. Nelita is a bundle of sweetness and energy wrapped up in a charming cattle dog package. This happy girl is still building her confidence, but one thing she's sure about is her love for people. Nelita adores making new human friends and greets them with enthusiasm and affection. Nelita is working on her manners, especially when it comes to greeting people. Her excitement can sometimes show up as jumping or playful mouthiness. Because of this, Nelita would thrive best in a home with kids 10 years and older, where she can continue learning appropriate greetings and boundaries with guidance and patience. As a cattle dog, Nelita is smart, active, and eager to learn. She will thrive in a home that can provide her with plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and positive guidance to help her continue growing into the confident, well-rounded pup she's meant to be. With consistency, patience, and love, Nelita will shine. Nelita is currently available behind the scenes. Please ask customer care staff for more information!

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.
