Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (medium coat). Cattle Dog mix, male puppy Dexter is 5-6 month old Heeler mix from Tulare. He was completely unphased by all the dogs waiting to meet him when he got to the rescue; he jumped right in! He is friendly and affectionate and ready for his forever home. He hasn’t had leash experience, but is eager to learn. This guy is a squish. So sweet and such an easy keeper. Dexter is at a perfect age - past a lot of the puppy drama but still very much a puppy. He’s young, moldable, and more! He’s having a blast with the resident dogs and learning how to cohabitate with cats (work in progress). Dexter is in foster care in Atascadero, CA. Dexter is chipped, neutered, and up to date on vaccinations. More photos and updates: .facebook/.cchdrescue/ search in posts and photo albums. Please complete an application at: bit.ly/CCHDR_App Note: No transport or blind adoptions. Prospective adopters must have a plan in place to meet and pick up their dog from the foster location.

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.
