Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler (short coat). Location: Wilmington, DE Moby is one of 8 littermates that will be listed individually. Both parents are ACD’s and are being fostered with the litter. Moby is a gentle giant and enjoys playing with littermates and parents. He is a blue heeler like his father and is one of the larger pups currently weighing 11 lbs. and is 8 weeks old. He has a kind and gentle nature and will blossom with patience after leaving littermates and learning new routine and environment. He currently sleeps with littermates in extra large kennel. Pups use blue pads in kennel. Pups love yard time and have healthy appetites being fed 3 times a day. They can do stairs and love treats, balls, chew toys and playing in fabric agility tunnel and cardboard boxes. An adopter familiar or experience with the breed, a fenced yard, commitment to on-going positive reinforcement training, both physical and mental exercise would be preferred. I would not recommend a home with children under 8. Pups will come with a spay/neuter contract and are current on all age appropriate vaccinations, flea and tick and heart worm preventatives. Pups will be placed in homes that can meet their needs. This breed can be a challenge and require dedicated owners. Happy to send more photos and videos to potential adopters. Pups are being fostered in Wilmington, Delaware. Meet and greets for potential local adopters will be arranged with foster home. If interested in Moby, or if you have any questions please reach out to foster mom Joan at ohdgardencomcast.

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.
