Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (medium coat). MEET DUNCAN! Duncan is a cute, snuggly, and playful puppy who gained a little confidence in a foster home while still enjoying his independence. Though initially unsure of his surroundings, he quickly found comfort in his bed, making it his safe space and happily engaging in independent play with soft, crinkly, squeaky toys. Duncan enjoys food and is a good eater, showing particular enthusiasm for his Kong filled with peanut butter. He slept soundly through the night and became comfortable resting in his crate during car rides. While he has grown more confident outside sniffing, showing burst of puppy energy, and even enjoying snow, Duncan clearly prefers the coziness of being indoors and eagerly heads back home. He is learning to walk on leash and is becoming more relaxed with each outing. Inside, Duncan truly shines, offering sweet snuggles, playful moments and a joyful puppy presence that makes him such a fun guy to be around. Duncan is currently up to date on all vaccinations, has been spayed/neutered, microchipped and seen by our vet team.

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.
