Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (medium coat). Aussie mix puppy, female Welcome Merle Streep from the streets of Lindsay, CA! An unhoused couple walked by a vaccine clinic one day and said they didn’t want her. Luckily, the individual working the clinic is a rescuer and knew what to do. Anyone’s best guess on her breed makeup…we think Aussie mix. All her pearly white big girl teeth are through so we estimate she’s about 5 months old and 25 lbs. If we take an educated guess, she’ll be around 45-50lbs full grown. She’s still very much a puppy and won’t be here long. Things we DO know: - people social - sleeps through the night in a crate (no fuss) - toy and food motivated - furthering her canine socialization in a pack environment Things we DON’T know yet (she just got here): - potty training status - compatibility with cats, critters, livestock Merle Streep is up to date on shots, chipped, and can go home on a spay 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.
