Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler (short coat). Meet Rocket! Rocket came to us as a stray. We are all surprised no one has come looking for him. He was already neutered and microchipped. Unfortunately, the microchip was never registered. Without being registered we have no way of finding his owners. The vet estimates Rocket is about 5 1/2 years old. Rocket, true to his breed will be your loyal shadow. He is timid at first but warms up quickly. Rocket is looking for a job to do as he is herding our volunteers in the kennels already. We believe Rocket would do best with older kids. He loves to play fetch and he knows a lot of commands too! So far we have found that he knows Sit, Down, Come, but we are sure there are more. He is well behaved and walks nicely on the leash. Come meet Rocket and give him a chance to warm up to you too! All dogs are vaccinated, microchipped and spayed or neutered (if they are old enough) before they leave the shelter. Please fill out an application if you are interested in this dog or call us today for more information. Because we are an all-volunteer organization, please call ahead to schedule a time for a Meet & Greet so we can ensure a dog handler is available to show you the dog or dogs you are interested in.

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.
