Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat). Location: Poughkeepsie, NY Meet Moose, aka Miss Moosey! This spunky little girl is a 9 month old, 25 pound Australian Cattle Dog mix. She knows basic commands such as sit, down and no. She is continuing her training while in her foster home, working on her recall, loose leash walking, and overall confidence building. Moose is crate trained and almost fully potty trained. She needs a structured routine to continue her success with potty training and confidence. She loves playing fetch, going on walks or hikes, and cuddling with her foster humans and dog siblings. Moose is nervous in new situations and she needs time to warm up to new people. She bonds best with the people who are with her daily and has been shy but polite to anyone new. Occasionally Moose will bark or growl and back away if something startles her. Moose is currently living in a home with 3 other cattle dogs and plays well with other dogs after proper introduction. She has also been spending time on a farm with horses and has the potential to be a great barn dog. Moose would be okay with dog savvy children, she has not been around cats. She would thrive in a home that is committed to providing daily training, exercise, and enrichment. Moose is spayed and UTD on all age appropriate vetting.

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.
