Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (medium coat). Cattle Dog mix female puppy Welcome Luna! Luna is a 4 month old, 23lb cattle dog mix. She is looking for an active, training-focused person or family to lead her to greatness. She loves to play fetch and is especially fond of her 9 year old human packmate. She has made great strides here the last few days learning how to walk on leash. This is opening her up to more exercise and adventure out in the world which is helping build confidence and relieve stress. She is also packed in with the 4 resident dogs and we owe a lot of credit to them for setting her straight. When she first arrived she was terrified of other dogs. It was clear she hadn’t been socialized. Flight was her fear response of choice. If a dog came within 5 ft of her, she’d turn into a corner and shake. Fast forward 3 days, she is learning how to play and following their lead. We’d love to find a home with another resident dog to continue Luna’s socialization. She’d actually pair really nicely with an older dog as she isn’t overwhelming, especially not for a puppy. Luna sleeps soundly in a crate overnight. Her former home had cats and we were told she did fine. She is shy, but curious with new people. She’ll warm up quickly and be in your lap within a few minutes if you don’t put too much pressure on her initially. In short, Luna is a dog with a ton of potential. She just needs someone committed to getting her up to speed. Luna is in Arroyo Grande, CA More photos, video and updates: .facebook/.cchdrescue/ search in posts and photo albums. Interested in Luna?

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.
