Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler. Keith is a handsome 1 year old Australian cattle dog mix weighing in at a nice medium size of 45 pounds. This tricolor beauty arrived at Dog Star in search of his forever family. Keith has a beautiful soul that is just waiting to blossom in the right home. Like many smart working breeds, Keith can be a little shy at first, especially in new situations, but with some patience and gentle encouragement, his sweet personality will shine bright. Once he feels safe and is able to gain some confidence, Keith will come out of his shell and shower you with love. He enjoys the company of other dogs and kids, however he has not yet had the chance to be in a home with a cat, so his relationship with them is unknown at this time. Keith is still learning the ropes so all of his house, crate and leash training, which are all currently in progress, but he is eager to learn and would love nothing more than to have someone by his side to show him the basics. He is looking for a family that is ready to continue helping him build confidence and learn at his own pace. Keith would thrive in a calm, supportive home that understands that sometimes the best things in life just take a little time. With consistency, love, and positive reinforcement, this smart boy has all the potential in the world to grow into an incredibly loyal and devoted companion. * When considering adoption, keep in mind that dogs thrive on structure and routine. They adjust much better when their owners are committed to providing consistency and stability. The adoption fee for Keith is $500. That includes the cost of spaying/neutering, up to date vaccinations, foster care, rescue and transportation fees.

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.
