Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler (medium coat). Jessie is an incredibly sweet and petite red heeler mix who is ready to find a loving home to call her own! She can be shy at first, but her big heart makes it worth the extra time and patience. She positively blossoms once she feels safe with people. Jessie is learning to walk on leash and has done amazingly well. She enjoys exploring especially when she can check back in and make sure her trusted people are still with her. Jessie enjoys playing with other dogs and thrives when she gets to spend time relaxing with her people. This little Einstein of a dog is a master at food puzzles and would love a home where she can keep exercising her mental muscles. Jessie is still learning to navigate a world that is big and sometimes scary. She would do best in a home without small children who might accidentally scare her. She thrives when she has a routine and knows what to expect. She has already shown so much courage and growth since she arrived at the shelter, itâs time for her to have her own family to grow with.

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.
