Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat). Location: Jay, Maine AVAILABLE Spy Meet Spy: an adorable 12 week old Australian Cattle Dog. (We know that her mama is a Cattle Dog. Dad didn’t leave a calling card.) I, Spy: Happy Busy Curious Brave Resilient Affectionate Athletic Smart People-focused Extremely food motivated. Spy has the sweet and spunky spirit of an adventurer, and the potential to grow into the dog of your dreams! Naturally, Spy will require adopters who are ready to provide continued positive socialization, and the level of physical and mental exercise required by a high-drive herding breed. Spy is catching on fast to house training, sleeps through the night, is very quiet in her pen and while riding in the car. Her perfect adopter will understand that Cattle Dogs are not easy - not Dog 101 - and be up for the challenge to train with fun and creativity to help Spy learn all of the puppy things she needs to know, and beyond. Spy has loved every human she’s met, but is still very much in mouthy Cattlegator puppy mode. Because she is still learning to curb the enthusiastic use of her sharp teeth while playing, she is not a good match for small children. Families with kids 8+ will be considered, providing they have breed experience and a willingness to allow their offspring to be baby shark bait. Any resident dogs should be playful yet patient with wild child puppy shenanigans. She has not interacted with cats. Spy will be adopted with a spay contract. She is microchipped and up to date on age appropriate vaccinations and preventatives. Spy is being fostered in Maine, so please consider your ability to travel to meet her when applying.

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.
