Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler (medium coat). Dallas is an energetic, people-loving cattle dog whoâs always ready to say hello. In the yard, Dallas shows a calmer side, he enjoys taking his time to sniff and explore, checking in often for pets and attention. Toys donât seem to be his main focus; heâd much rather hang out with his person. Heâs a smart boy who already knows several commands, including âsit,â âdown,â and âroll over,â and he may know âpawâ as well. Dallas is highly motivated by affection and will happily work for praise and attention. When he does take treats, heâs gentle and polite. Dallas has done well meeting new people, though he can be a little reserved at first before warming up. He has also enjoyed playing with another dog, jumping right into play and taking breaks appropriately. Because he can be a bit enthusiastic and is still working on his manners, he would do best with an experienced owner who can provide structure, training, and plenty of outlets for his energy and herding instincts.

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.
