Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat). Location: Watsontown, PA. This cutie is Carmie, a very athletic ball of energy. At 19 weeks and 14 pounds she is relentless in her play with her much larger foster brothers and in taking behavior lessons from Woody the cat. She hikes many miles in the PA game lands and enjoys swimming in the ponds. Fetch is not a game of choice but chasing down the players keeps her moving. She loves climbing the agility a-frame in the yard and relaxing in the swing suspended under the a-frame. If you might be looking for an agility partner or a trail dog she would be a great choice. Carmie has been good with dogs of all sizes, and respects the “go away” signals from the older dogs. She has lived with four cats and can be a bit pushy but two of the cats enjoy playing with her. She has not been around small children and would need some training as she is still a bit nippy. Tough toys are a must but playing tug with any toy is a favorite pastime. Her crate is her hangout for eating, sleeping and chilling. Still working on potty training. She is up to date on all her vaccinations. She is not yet spayed so would be adopted with a spay/neuter agreement. She would be a great companion for any home or any activity. Carmie is hanging out in Watsontown PA.

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.
