Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler (short coat). Location: Pembroke, Ma Everyone meet Penelope. This girl deserves a family of her own and a soft spot to land. She is approximately 2 years old. What a story she has. Penelope was found as a pregnant stray in Georgia. Before we could get her into the rescue she disappeared and we all feared and braced for the worst. Until one day she reappeared no longer pregnant. She was able to lead her rescuers back to the crawl space of a abandoned house where she had tucked her four babies in the furthest corner. Penelope's puppies are now all weaned and she is looking for a family of her own. Penelope has not had the easiest of lives. At some point she was abused as evidence to how she flinches if you move your hands fast around her face. She also has an old cataract that causes her no pain, she is not fully visual in the eye but she compensates well. Penelope is a sweet girl who is fantastic with kids, she is a velcro dog who is looking for her best friend. She is pretty low energy and would love e someone to curl up on a couch with. She is house trained and UTD on shots, and will be spayed before going to her new home.

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.
