Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (medium coat). Cattle Dog mix senior female Welcome Nelly from Bradshaw Animal Services. Nelly hit the jackpot just in the nick of time with her foster and savior. This senior was almost out of time when her foster stepped in. Nelly is a 13 year old cattle dog mix. She is about 45 pounds. Nelly got to sleep in a human bed and eat a soft home cooked meal. She’s found a companion in the resident cat - the two enjoy going for walks together. Nelly is happy to meet everyone. She is just a lovely girl. Sweetheart to the max! Nelly is being scheduled for a much needed dental procedure. Volunteers raised money to help cover the surgery so it will be taken care of before she is adopted out. Nelly is chipped, spayed and up to date on vaccines. Nelly is in Amador City, CA More photos and updates: .facebook/.cchdrescue/ search in posts and photo albums. Interested in Nelly?

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.
