Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat). Location: Wilmington, DE Preston is a male cattle dog mix. He is currently about three months old (born early February) and weighs about 15 lbs. He is being fostered with his siblings Prissy and Percy. Unlike his siblings he has a unique look. I sometime call him Fraggle because the name reminds me of a Fraggle character. He is medium energy and has a calm demeanor. Housetraining is going smoothly. He does everything with his siblings. He is being fostered with our five adult dogs. They are crated when unsupervised and sleep together at night. He should be with an active family with a fenced yard. He is current on all age appropriate vaccinations and flea and tick and Heartworm preventatives and is microchipped. He will be adopted with a neuter contract Please keep in mind that puppies require a huge commitment. The adopter will be responsible for the neuter that will need to be done at six months. If interested learning more about Preston feel free to contact his foster mom Joan at ohdgardencomcast He is being fostered in Wilmington, Delaware and preferred to meet potential adopter in close proximity of my home.

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.
