Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat). Fostering in Gloucester Massachusetts Jax Male 17 weeks 24 lbs Micro chipped and up to date on age appropriate vaccinations. Jax is a sweet Cattle dog mix who was Fostering with his littermate. Since his brother has moved on Jax has become the perfect house guest. He sleeps on a dog bed beside me throughout the day and in his crate at night. No resource guarding and gets along with my resident dog. Jax will sit patiently and wait for his food to be placed on the floor. Jax keeps his crate very tidy but does have an occasional accident during the day, he does his best to make it outside. Jax is on the shy side but gains more confidence daily. He knows some basic commands and is very treat motivated to learn more. Jax has the classic traits of a Cattle Dog, wanting to be as close as possible to his human at all times. Jax would probably be ok with a kitty if introduced slowly. Jax is curious about little humans (grandsons) but they are a bit noisy so he will watch from a distance. Jax needs a confident human(s) that can help him through some insecurities. Someone who is home more than not. Someone who is familiar with the breed and willing to reach out to a reward based trainer if needed. A quiet home with a yard would be ideal for Jax. Jax will come with a spay/neuter contract. Meet and greets will be arranged after an application has been submitted acdra You can see more photos and videos cattledogfostersinglostah on Facebook Please contact: shelleynugentmsn Complete an Application: share.google/LwLHsOWkN5iKjK3mH

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.
