Description
Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler (short coat). Location: Salem, Ohio Patch 6 year old neutered Cattle Dog mix Who needs a couch potato? Seriously, forget everything you have ever heard about Cattle Dogs! Patch does not need long walks, mental stimulation, a job, exercise or any other activity. Just let him be in the same room as you, tell him he’s a good boy and scratch his head. He’s happy as he can be. Well, he does need to go out to potty 3 times a day but it doesn’t take him long. Now don’t take me wrong. He does like to do zoomies or just run around but only for about 15 minutes. Not endless energy. Patch is completely safe to leave in the house uncrated. No messes. No chewing. Only bad habit is he does like to check out what’s on the counter. You won’t even know he’s in the house. He will find a quiet corner to lie down and that’s where he will stay. If you leave him, he will watch you out the window and do the most pathetic whine. Then settles down and waits for your return. I do recommend a house with no young children. Patch has led a very sheltered life. Loud noises, commotion, kids running around would make him nervous. Also a fenced yard would be ideal. If he gets a chance, he takes off. Again, not for long but he does quickly disappear. I see Patch with an older person or couple that lives a quiet life. Heck, he doesn’t even want to go on a Sunday drive! And he would be happiest being the only dog. He pretty much ignores cats. He may decide to play with the cat but again, not often and just for a minute or two. Patch is fostered through ACDRA in Salem Ohio. He is current on vaccines, flea & tick prevention, heartworm prevention and wormer. Would you like to learn more about this boy?

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.
