Description
Dog Breed: Pit Bull Terrier / Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (medium coat). KETCHUP From his foster: He has been a wonderful addition to our household as a foster dog over the past few months! He navigates our home expertly, getting around the furniture and stairs with ease. Ketchup has been learning about going potty outside and will do most of his business in the yard as long as he has access to it. Ketchup loves being where his people are, whether it is relaxing on the couch or working out in the shop. He likes to just follow us from one part of the house to the next. While we think he would do best in a quiet home with a predictable routine, he also has done well on short camping trips and he enjoys hanging out at our local breweries. Ketchup does well with slow introductions to other dogs. He seems to prefer the company of relaxed mature dogs who will just lay around with him. Overall, Ketchup is a total crack up and an absolute love. He is going to provide someone with endless joy and companionship! Ketchup is blind, rides nicely in the car as long as he is hooked in (otherwise he'll join you in the front seat!), and has done well with the resident cat in his foster home. He is estimated to be 6 years old and weighs 55 pounds.

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.
