We have had five Heelers. The males tend to be less problematic with people but more with other dogs. The boys like to wonder while hiking.
The ladies stick by us. Don't wonder hardly at all. They are better with other dogs but more nippy with people. Gotta watch the females around other people especially kids.
Hope that helps.
Good info!
You helped more then this b.s. video
Good to know! Just rescued an 8 month old from the pound! Nice find!!!
Couldn't agree more
@@frankmageean6027 Thanks!
I've got a great story about heeler intelligence and escapability. One of my healers created a tool to help him jump out of his 8' fence kennel. He dumped out his 5-gallon bucket water dish. Flipped it over. Pushed it over close to the fence. Then jumped up on the bucket in order to get that little extra height he needed to jump the fence. I observed all this by looking out an upstairs window out of his view.😄
Absolutely hilarious! But no surprise-very ingenious and adaptive little turds!
Too funny;)!!
LOL 😆 🤣 so I don't need to worry about having a fence because it won't help.
I had a Border Collie and a big old Australian Shepherd that were always escaping. I adopted the Shepherd, and they failed to mention she was an escape artist as big as she was. I have no idea how she got over that fence. Animal control said she jumped right in the truck, and they just followed the Collie home. Lol😅
@@rjay7019 😂👍😂
Thank you for this 😂😂😂😂❤
I agree they do require a lot of exercise, however they can be trained to relax a lot as well. I had a secondment 600km away from were I lived, I was given a small unit with a small yard. My heeler would watch me come home and he would know my routine. Walk in the door shower dinner and relax he would do the same. He would jump in the shower with me he would eat dinner the same time and he would sleep as soon as I rested. On weekends we would drive home and he would bounce off the walls on our property exert all his energy and back to our city life on Monday. So yes they are great dogs and will do whatever you want them to do, highly recommended them.
Great info thank you!
Absolutely agree - very smart dogs so they can learn when it's time to go and time to chill
Absolutely, after some hurdles mine has adapted to relaxing. but not without chewing up some things out of frustration first, before I found a routine that worked for him.
I just had to put down my 14 year old, and I miss her so much. I'm 65 and haven't been very active for years and my ACD would relax with me and keep the other dogs where they were suppose to be and she'd let me know when it was time for bed and she expected me to go also. She was a great dog.
@@nancywaddell289 I'm so sorry miss Nancy I too owned a blue heeler. Talk about personality.. on goodness he was the most unique dog I ever owned.. smallest.. smartest.. just a pure love.. had to learn him and just what he needed from me to excell in life. And he did. I took just had to give up my emotional support dog .. of 10 years.. and even now as I speak my tears are rolling out. It was the most hardest thing I have ever done.. left a whole so big in my 💜.so to this I write to you be strong .. never lose the memory you two shared of live.. bless you. Your new dog friend🙉🐶🐶🐶
I've had 2 female red heelers spanning 30 years. 15 years each. The second is still chillin' with me. Best dang dogs I've ever met. Protective, loyal, fun, the best companions I've ever had. High energy running partners. Greatest friends I ever had.
Did U know they have the record for longest lived k9 at 28 years old
I have had herding dogs for 6 decades. These dogs are fabulous. Females are way more intense than males.
We had a female that was such a good dog! For 12 years she never made a mess of any kind in the house. While we were gone she patiently waited for us to return having free roam of the house. Usually waited on the couch, but always greeted us at the door. Very special kind of dog & so smart. Easy to train at 4 months old. She did have a little jealous streak with another dog around. Liked to be the number one Queen!
My blue heeler was thrust upon me at a park in AZ. The owner just dumped her off. I had no experience with the breed, always had standard poodles. It’s been quite an amazing experience to watch my Daisy adapt to my lifestyle and me to adapt to her needs. No one knows how old she is, but she is the best dog I’ve ever had, couldn’t live without her. So smart!! Today we leave on a cross country road trip and she is my co-pilot.
*Male or Female: You will not expect your ACD to bond with you as tight as you thought. It will become your guardian, helper, crossfit workout coach, daily alarm clock, bathroom inquisitor, companion. If you don't want a klingon "bite all threats" dog, always in your face, a Heeler isn't for you
Good way to say it!
My girl knows how to shut down when I am resting or calm. She's pretty good at it.
I just lost my PTSD service dog, a female Red Heeler. She was incredibly hard, and absolutely loyal. I was blessed by her presence, and am blessed by her memory.
I love my cattle dog she keeps me busy
@@kellyplumb3100 mine too she's amazing
I have a female red heeler and she took approximately 3 years to train by crate. It was alot of work but she is now a great dog. She had to be crated if no one was home so she did not cause destruction out of separation anxiety or boredom of being alone. Now she is trustworthy and can have full run of the house and never bothers anything.
Sounds like you don't exercise your dog enough and locking your dog in a crate makes their anxiety WORSE
"Crate" lol?! You mean you took a dog that naturally needs to be running outside constantly and locked it in a tiny cage, at home, alone. You are an absolute freak of a human. Honestly, I want to know how your brain works: wtf is wrong with you?
My Female ACD is about the size/weight of a male. I have no complaints. I always have to remember to bend down to pet her still. Couldn't imagine her being a few inches shorter Lol. She's big enough and fierce/fearless enough that she scared out burglars once who managed to get my front door open. After snarling/barking at the door when it opened, she ran back up to me and put herself in my bedroom doorway to block entry to me while I got the gun out of my safe.
Thankfully, her confrontation at the door scared them off and we did a perimeter check on the house and sealed it back up...and didn't sleep much that night.
I have had two male healers and when my brothers female healer visited; She was the Top Dog and always out competed the male healer and she was not afraid of him or our Rottweiler(also male). The boys just stood back because she always got to the ball or stick first. Sometimes the boys would gang up on her and try to drown her in the dam, but she would snap at them and they backed off. One brother had three female healers at different times and they were also top dog. My other brother , recently deceased also had one female healer and she is a bit bigger and heavier. She is a red healer and all the others were blue. Love them to bits. I am Australian.
Very cool thanks for sharing
I have a female Blue Heeler and love her. I’m an experienced dog trainer and find this dog to be challenging and brilliant fun. I love how she keeps me thinking outside the box.
just bought my new house and a blue heeler to go with it… im so excited to start training the little guy 🤓
Mine is obsessed with securing the perimeter, and super alert. She is clingy too. My issue has been how independent she is training wise, She doesn’t ask permission to do something if it excites her.
Every night before bed we tell our girl to check the perimeter, it might be her favorite job.
There are Alpha’s and sub’s in both sexes. Too many people focus on the pretty coat when you should really be looking at the temperament that fits your situation. We have had a red female and a blue male and female. They were all good dogs.
My uncle grew up on the largest cattle ranch in the state. He spent two hours trying to get his bull to load. The red heeler had it loaded in less than 3 minutes.
I've had four now. Two of which were rescue and older. The rescues were not a good choice for us. The other two we got from puppies and they bonded with us like no other dogs we have had. A great breed! We love them!
hOW COME? WE HAVE A RESCUE 4Y
@@stephaniegeichman8382 not sure they just took off.
We have a male and a female from the same parents, the female being about 4 years younger. The male is more reserved while the female is more aggressive and demanding of attention. Both of them like to patrol together along our property lines a few times a day but are always nearby watching whatever we are doing when outside. The neighbors like them because they are so friendly and entertaining to watch. The female is known for "supervising" any outside activities in the neighborhood like construction work or landscaping. Both of them make goofy noises when they are excited and in a good mood. Never a dull moment with these two.
I have a heeler/ border collie mix. Something I didn't realize before I got her was that they are very clingy and bond really close to their owners. Which is mostly good, but it can cause some difficulties.
Mine is beyond clingy
@@martinschenk8184 yeah it causes issues like when I leave for just a sec but I leave her with someone she still freaks out
Yeah. The separation anxiety is incredible. But they're awesome
I have an American Bulldog/heeled mix and she’ll just randomly lean into me sometimes lmao. When she was younger when we first got her, she used to try and lay on our laps if we sat on the floor even though she weighed 80ish pounds.
They want to be with their human 24/7. Or the very least they want you in their line of site. lol they are devastated if they are left.
Aww man these are really great dogs.The oldest I have is a red heeler/collie cross name Sweedy, had chased cattle provides good companionship and protection from annoying relatives. Now she's looking after our new stubbed tailed heeler Cookie, she's still less then a year old yet drives whole herds nearly by herself while giving off an big attitude for use to fond over.
The oldest dog in the word was a heeler who lived to 28 I believe which is twice the lifespan of most breeds
I think these are some of the best looking dogs out there. My lab/heeler is the best dog I could have ever asked for. He looks like some of these dogs but with half floppy ears and more black. He's super smart and needs SO much exercise, at least until he was eight. I'm happy to be with him and be outdoors so it was good for me. He's very confident and always smiling. Thanks for the video.
I to have a lab heeler mix idk if her mix is heeler lab and Dalmatian or pitbull the person I got her from said the first part my dogs not to hyper just a bit but she very protective of my home and I appreciate her :)
@@xxbrattypupxx41 We have a Heeler/Retreiver mix that is white with a few large black spots and a bunch of Dalmatian looking spots. The large spotsis where she got her name of, Cow Cow.
@@daleanscomb365 how old is she! She sound beautiful
@@xxbrattypupxx41 she just turned 3 last month.
I have had both. My male is the sire of my female. The biggest difference I’ve seen is that my male didn’t like anyone but the family. He is super protective; my female doesn’t know a stranger. My female sleeps on her back as most females do; my male doesn’t. My female loves to play fetch and will entertain herself with toys: my male refuses to play with toys or balls. They are both loving dogs, super smart and have different kinds of learning like children. My male was taught to wipe his feet when coming in the house; my female still doesn’t and doesn’t understand the concept. They both mind exceptionally well. They both know how to say I love you, but dogs in general are like people. They learn differently, and there are just some things each just doesn’t grasp and that’s ok. I have loved them equally and understand that they are individuals who have their own personalities.
Yes great info!
Wow. How did you teach him to wipe his feet. I’m about to get a male red Heeler and need to teach him this
@@Michael_bird_ I put a huge rug at the back door and every time we came into the house I had him sit on the rug then I said wipe your paws. At first I had to physically show him what wipe your paws meant. Eventually I didn’t say sit when he came in and just went to wipe your paws. On rainy and muddy days he knows to sit and wait to be dried off with a towel. Every single time he came in we practiced. Every time. They are super smart and it doesn’t take a lot for them to learn new things, but it takes discipline for myself as well to be consistent. One time of not doing it ruins the entire learning process. Most heelers learn a new thing quickly when puppies. I used praise and lovings to train. Never a clicker. Good luck. They are the absolute best dogs I have ever owned.
I'm conviced that they're not called heelers because of their work style, but because they will always be stepping on your heels
Exactly. Right behind you at all times!
👍
@@DogsNowChannel At. ALL. Times.
I have a female Blue Heeler and she’s super protective and loyal. “Intense” is the appropriate word to describe the female Blue Heeler. She also gives me the puppy eyes when she wants something, like a treat. She’s very smart and knows how to get what she wants.
my male heeler is so smart. he learns the name of new toys within days of getting them. he just got a new avocado plushy and charmander plushy the same day and knew their names within hours. he was horribly destructive as a pup and ate anything that fit in his mouth (he's 15, he still eat hair ties and paper towels if we arent looking). that jerk even learned to lie to me if he saw a tissue on the coffee table. he suddenly had to go outside really badly until i got halfway to the door and he'd run back to the table and grab it! now in his old age, all he wants in life is to be able to see mommy at all time and get lots of hugs. thankfully i'm still working from home since the beginning of the pandemic and he is content to just lay at my feet all day long until we move to the couch and he can lay right next to that too (hip dysplasia now, otherwise he'd be in my lap!!)
We had a red heeler when I was around 10 yrs old. She was smart, acrobatic, and understood words like I have never seen before. One time, I whispered in her ear " bears! coyotes! wolves! and she literally went into beast mode. Instant stalk, hunt, inspect mode. It was absolutely incredible. I had never seen anything like it in my life and I guarantee you it was the first time someone had ever said that to her. Moving forward, I was able to use that phrase until she passed as a warning, to hunt, stalk or attack. She would analyze the situation and then immediately adapt to what needed to happen. She saved my mothers life and unfortunately she was immediately paralyzed. She attacked a semi truck in our small town that had slipped off the road and was heading for my mother. It was very sad. But I will tell you this. She wasn't scared. Not one bit. She would have done it again and again. This dog was the most incredible dog I have ever seen. Period.
I love my Little guy Scout! So cute... And yes, busy and intense with lots of demand on your time. Keeps you active.
Yep a blue heeler will keep you young!
Oh that photo at 1:51. So funny. 'Um, excuse me?'. Lol
Our purebred male blue heeler was dumped at our church as a year old.. HE weighed 65 lb. Slept by our bed and helped me with ranch work. Died of a heart attack around age 14 after his normal twice daily walk. Paul's wife Katherine in Texas USA 🇺🇸 😍 ♥ ❤ 🤍 💙 🐕

Getting my first female ACD puppy in 2 weeks! Can’t wait :)
Our girl is 43 lbs and will be 2 years old in February. She is a loving pup and although large, still enjoys Dad's lap. I'm #1 and she has other favorites down the line. She has a bad habit of chewing holes in throws, blankets, sheets, pillow cases, etc. I either patch them or leave as is. She knows she has done an unacceptable deed if if show her (without words or expressions). I have never punished her for that or anything else. She potty trained in a few days. She has access outside and we have large acreage so she gets plenty of exercise. Every night about 10:00, she comes up to us and stares. If we don't acknowledge her request, she goes to bed alone. LOL.
Haha smart dogs
My female red heeler turned out to be a big surprise) I took her as an adventure partner, but she prefers strolling in the park, running and playing only at well-groomed lawns or stadiums, and swimming at fully equipped beaches or pools, when I try to take her somewhere in the wilderness and engage her in playing she’s just sit there patiently waiting when I will stop fooling around in the stupid forest and take her to some fancy cafe. Guess I got lucky to be a friend of a diva heeler)
My female is 42-44 lbs and her brother from another litter that I also got is 50 lbs. My brother adopted a male that weighed 55 lbs and slightly malnourished but has to be at least 65+ lbs now and a little chunky. My first heeler is going on 12 yrs old and she always ranged from 36-40 lbs
I found my heeler at a few months old and she gravitated to me so fast she would not pee or poop around anything that smells like me from meeting her unless I leave her locked in, (only happened the day I rescued her). She isn’t too destructive but she has a nice size of land and toys. I’ve had her for about 3 months and by her teeth and her doubling in size I figure I got her when she was 7-8 months. One of the best and smartest dogs I ever had but one caveat. She never really “listened” to me unless I do what I call “drill sergeant” voice and usually that is accompanied by hand gestures (Down girl!) 👇 (Heel!) downward first. Or (let’s go). Which doesn’t have a gesture but eye contact will make her come to me and once I start walking she follows me like I’m the only thing that exists…. I’m not sure if this is behavioral because unless I shout she seems to not hear me, I believe she is deaf because I can basically scream at a million decibels when she is sleep. For a while I could even walk up on her but now she is triggered by my smell to the point I can see her wiggling her nose in her sleep before she jumps up and rushes me
She's very lucky to have you!
My female is smart motherly sweet knows when its play time and when it's not she affectionate and alert and guards when needs to. I think she was a farm girl I rescued her from the vet noone claimed her she cried every time I told her I loved her she cried when she got her toys she cried when she got her dog bed but now shes a CNA and she loves it the elders love her and she makes them feel safe loved to play will throw her own ball. She will bark at Vehicles when they drive by usually only loud large ones he doesn't like it when people walk down the alley in the backyard if there's a smaller dog she thinks it's her baby she's not aggressive towards other dogs unless they growl out and show aggression first her instincts are absolutely amazing some people still bark at others she cries out and wants them to pet her 7 yesterday morning I heard her outside crying in this kid maybe middle schooler was walking by and my dog was just in the front yard crying wagging her tail and the girl walks past and I just yelled out she's not mean she doesn't bite in the girl stopped and turn around and had to pet her now if someone walks by and they looked sketchy I know my dog would not be happy about it she doesn't like the neighbors dogs because they bark all the time but she doesn't mind the hound dog that's two doors down she has her own personality that's for sure her and the cat get along great she alerted me before tornadoes hit the other night oh and her favorite toys are a ball or toilet paper tube🤷♀️ she has to Lambchop toys but they're not really toys they are her babies she doesn't need a kennel I bought one and ended up selling it she chose her own name Sammy loves car rides and kids and babies is a little OCD at times certain things have to be in certain spots. before I got her I had a Chihuahua for 18 years. big difference. I believe God put her in my life we needed each other... 🥰
My new puppy is chill. Loves hanging out watching us play video games in front of the fire place.
Great info to know! Super video!
Thanks for watching!
Have had heelers all my life and how they behave is all on the owner. All mine have been amazing but heavy training and socializing is a must from the moment you get them home. Weeks 6-12 they need to meet new people constantly and other animals. If this isn’t done they are still good dogs but will not be people friendly. Lots of exercise and training they love and will respond quickly. It’s all about the work you put in those first 7 weeks or so and be consistent
i have a mongrel that i adopted that looks exactly like a australian cattle ❤ love her so much
I have a red heeler and I love her. She can be destructive tho and it’s really hard to meet her energy requirements all the time bc my husband got her for me when I was pregnant.
She’s a good girl. She was easy to train. She loves training and bonded with me so deeply
I honestly haven't noticed a major difference between male and female. More like it depends on the individual in this breed at least.
wow love blue heelers i am aussie so i would know a lot!!!!!!
My girl is super play driven. She likes a walk and a run, but she really gets going when it's play time, either with other dogs or with my tennis ball launcher and lots of tug-of-war lol.
I've lost a pound a day working out my buddy
I have one and my mom has one too they great dogs especially if you looking for exercise.
First off, Mine is about 65 pounds, Male 100% DNA proven Cattle Dog. He needs so much exercise my BP is 100/69.
I have a blue heeler coming up 6 months next month (September) but in having a rough time training her.. Im use to hyper dogs from having a jack russell but she is on a whole nother level... I love her shes very calm when being put in crate or in a room with a gate but other then that im failing on getting her use to a harness and leash.. She acts like its the enemy x.x... Could use some tips from being new to owning a blue heeler.
They are so smart, and loyal.
Love our Boy.
💙🐕🇦🇺
Wow
My grandfather Bob Rapp
Is a farmer/rancher in upstate ny. When I was young and helped him with the farm everyday he told me that he would never own a male so Im watching to see if what I was told matches with what he said. This is important to me because 8 years ago I moved to Wyoming and haven't seen him sence.😢
I had a male and a female. Hands down, female was superior. Best guard dog I ever had, refused to leave the property if the gate accidentally opened, stuck close during walks, did not react to other dogs, and command trained easier. She actually opened our gate at 3am to stop a guy trying to steal our neighbours car, then went back to her home. Our male enjoyed wandering, fighting, chasing cars... overall dumb dog activity. Maybe he was just an idiot lol.
Your right.. I love my girls iv only had one boy ..he was great but iv had 4 girls and happy with all of them ..
I have a mixed blood dog and one of the races mixed is blue heeler. He is very smart and for my delight he lives to walk. I'll look for a pure blood when mine passes away.
I just got Australian cattle and doesn't like the collar very stubborn and is 11 months and female hope can help
HAPPY 2022
2022 here we come!
Have both a female and now a male. In 60 years of dog ownership she was the best dog I ever had. He would be the second best. She was more obedient in difficult situations. You could leave her on a sidewalk outside a store and come back 1/2 hr later and she would still be laying there waiting for you. He will wait maybe 5 minutes and come looking for you. She could be 2 ft behind a squirrel at full on chase and I could call her off immediately. Him, now way. Both very athletic. He can catch a frizbee like there's no tomorrow. She could pull me on a bike 10 miles. He is very cuddly where she wanted to be but never was. If I had to choose I would prefer the female but every dog has their own personality and every one is different regardless of the gender. This is an amazing breed but only for the most dedicated informed owner.
Very cool info thanks for sharing!
I hope my red female is more like yours lol, she's a super hyper puppy but only 7 months so I know I've got a ways to go. I'm still waiting on her manners as far as jumping on folks, nipping, etc.. I had a blue that i used to leave in the bed of truck at wal mart for ½ hour and he wouldn't move but he was a male named floyd so opposite of your heeler experience
Agreed! Every Heeler is different regardless of gender! Heelers are the Best ❣️🥰❤️😎🤠👍
Have only had females heelers. I find they are very loyal and protective of my family.
I wouldn't know if there is a difference between the males or females. Honey is my first solar puppy all I know is she won't quit until the sun goes down. Maybe I will add a male to the family one day!
The Blue Heeler I got is given to me, she was 4 years old. It was in a kennel and shocked collar trained. Had her for 3 years now. Also had her fixed after I first got her. It is funny to see this vid, and I look down at my Blue Heeler, while she is doing the opposite of the vid claim. She is very lazy, prefers to be inside than outside in the heat or freezing cold. She so scared of storms, but tries to be brave about it. The only thing she will chew is her bone, she understands this is her property, it belongs to her. She can not be trusted around people or animals first, unless I introduce them. She has to be introduced by me, this seems to been working. You can not be a unknown person and jump on me, she stalks just like a predator animal to the letter, into the tussle. So it is hard to tell if she is joining, or watching/thinking/assessing. Many traits I seen her do even on a walk remind me of the same actions found in wild predator animals, namely wolves. You know, like a shark, she low keyed comes in quietly then grabs the first thing she can get her teeth on without warning. Oh yeah, just because someone knocks on the door does not mean squat, she may not bark. She has been unpredictable in this. Since I had her, she is more relaxed, and tends to act like this if real danger exist instead of at any type of engagement. Even in "hi". 3 years has been a long road for this...
I ware all black, t-shirt/regular jeans/boots, always have in my whole life. She saw me also in my leather jacket, she acts as if this is familiar to her. The first time I was handed the dog as a surprise, she took to me right there(I am a cat lover and past owner, I never owned a dog in my life). I call her Dinggo because no one wanted me to just call her Dog. I couldn't think of anything else to call her, so I called her Dinggo. She seems to like the name. She responded to that better than the name she came with. The dog also acts as if my loud car is also a familiar to it. Anytime I go to it and have to get something from inside, she sneaks up in and sits in the passenger seat. Even tho I am a older man, I do play vid games regardless. The games in which I can find her laying next to me the most all the way through is, "X Rebirth"(thinking maybe the music), "Flashing Lights"(first responder simulator game, she snores very loud when I play this game), and "Mad Max"(thinking cause it uses loud engines like my own car does, and she has been in it a few times, even tho she acts as if she owns it).
And it is true, she likes to be with me for everything. It is actually a rude thing. Think of her as a attached shadow were privacy does not exist.
I got her a cage and a pillow. And I have it half covered so it is more like a animal den, she likes it like this. She knows it as her room, and the pillow is her comfty. When she is ready to go to bed, she will sit by the cage door. You ask her is she ready to go to bed, does she want to go to her room, she gets all excited and runs up to you and nudges you, then rans back to the door. She does this anytime after 9pm. She snores a lot. She know when her breakfast time is, dinner time is, and what times she has to go out, she is always on the mark with this. If you call her out and claim it is the wrong time, the argument is on. She fallows a watch only she can see I suppose. She does like to play, but rough housing with me. She has the famous dark color sort blend, with that single white lighting mark on her head, that neck thing they have going on, and midget short type legs. You can't see it, but she has spots. When I got her fixed, her fur got real, real light before my eyes exposing a bunch of black spots(this happen as a result of the internal pain of the operation???). Also, she has a smile when she is happy, and grunts like a pig when she is content. Australian animals are very strange, even their dogs, being mixed no less, are no exception to being another weird animal from Australia...
Intense
what about a blue heeler/border collie mix. I have a male puppy about 8 weeks, he is scared of every little noise and thing and i am not sure why he is so skittish. i got him about 2 weeks ago.
This type of dog can be very anxious. They are keen to any sight or sound. So smart. On alert all the time. He will need fun walks & play. He is just a puppy getting use to the world. The first two years seemed to be the hardest for me but he will become the most wonderful companion. Great watch dog, too. Enjoy! You won’t be sorry. 😊
My full-blood female blue heeler is incredibly stubborn! She is 4 and I am 64. I was walking her lsst year, and she stopped short, I tripped over her, shattered my right shoulder, tore my left rotator cuff, and fractured my right eye socket. Ive never walked her since. She was in a puppy mill and rescued and adopted by me ...antisocial, anti freedom! We are NOT a good match, but she is a good dog.
My boy is indifferent towards anyone but me (he's always next to me all day every day, even at work.) He dislikes other dogs (he "despises" coyote.) Ungodly strong for 35 pounds, even at 13 years old. I love him so much.
Females are more touchy feely. Males can be a bit cantankerous and even mischievous. I absolutely love the breed.
I love my baby boy he's turning 1 yr in a week.
My female Heeler is 65 pounds at two yo and isn’t fat. She’s built more like a Shepard but looks 100% Heeler! She is an amazing family member! All of the characteristics you expect in a Heeler. Her favorite activities is chasing deer, foxes and even coyotes once in a while. They want nothing to do with her!
I have a female and she's ready to go every day so smart she's my buddy
Wait just to be clear....blue heeler and Australian cattle dog are the same thing?? Or is it like a ven diagram where there's a crossover? Cause we got one and i always tell people that we believe he's a blue heeler ANDDD potentially an Australian cattle dog...please and ty for any input 🤗🤔
My red healer is so chill my brother owns a red heeled that’s so intense but mine is just Chilling on my bed
That’s great!
Love this video: just repeating the word intense over and over. Very accurate
Our female blue heeler has us trained the way she wants us. Bossiest dog I've ever knoen
Looks like the blue heeler is becoming more popular again. Used to be there were very few videos of them online. Now… there are many
Great dogs!
Might have something to do with the children's show, "Bluey". It's about a family of heelers lol
Problem is so many go to homes then released to rescues becasue those that get them just don't understand what you have to do for them. We have a ACD/Border Collie mix and at a year old it is a good 2 hours daily at the dog park and a couple shorter walks daily. If not properly socialized they will become over protective etc etc.
That being said she is a wonderful dog and I would not give her up for anything.
A lot more younger people/ younger generation are buying property & farming . I have many friends who have bought property recently and are learning farming. I think it's great. So that could also be why.
This! Many people are getting tired of the rat race. That’s what I’m planning. I want to get a big property and live as off grid as possible
Mama and papa blue heelers :D
Only thing I'm going to disagree is when it comes to healers you did not own them they absolutely own you! Like in my situation pretty much everything I do is for my Healers so therefore I'm literally working everyday for them
You have a mix of ACDs and Australian Stumpy Tail Cattle Dogs in this video, so you could be seen to be confusing the two breeds, which are absolutely separate breeds. Stumpies are totally different physically to ACDs... stumpies are taller, leaner and square looking, longer legs, and are born with a stump (though some are born with tails). The tails are NEVER docked. I noticed too that there are ACDs with docked tails in this video. Here in Australia, docking tails is illegal. Yes, both ACDs and ASTCDs are working breeds, but not all of them are full on and intense. My stumpy girl loved nothing better all her life than to sleep, and had absolutely no interest in working sheep or cattle. My stumpy boy is a bit more active, though he's spending most of his days sleeping as well, but isn't anywhere near as active as what they're made out to be (and he's 10 months old). I also fostered more than a few ACDs and they weren't as hellishly active as they're made out to be. They are not for the faint of heart... if you're not prepared to be the strong leader they need, both ACDs and ASTCDs will pull the wool over your eyes very quickly and make you their bitch.... and you'll be left wondering what happened. They MUST be trained if you're to get the best out of them, and to be the leader that they need. The more you train them, the closer your bond will be. And you CAN train them to be calmer and less demanding.
Good info thanks for sharing!!
I have both a silver blue speckle male and a traditional female the male is a lot more protective than the female. Both are great, I love them but they are always going. They can be dead tired and if you move they are up ready to go.
👍👍
How much exercise do they need?
Yes!
Haha exactly
How much you got
@@tas4u93 never enough. I have zero chance of wearing her out on own. She gets a good 2 hours a day at dog park running and playing. Gets home lounges for 30 mins and is ready for hallway fetch.
1 yr old Border Collie/ACD.
I walk mine 3 miles a day and she could go 30 miles easily 😂 She’s so sweet
@@RosieandFriends1 I'm so glad my little girl is good with other dogs. at 42 lbs she will play, rough, with dogs 2 or 3x her size and not care a bit. Usually tires out two or three of the big ones, sometimes at the same time, before she needs a rest.
We get a red heeler mixed with a border coillie
I prefer female dogs. They seem to be better protectors and have more emotional intuition with their master.
See, my friend who runs a rescue said the exact opposite. She said male dogs tend to bond better etc. so strange. I’ve always had females.
@@ohmylaurenthe opposite sex thing also cones into play.
@@ohmylaurenmales do bond better. They're also more affectionate. Females are more distant. And will even turn their back to you when they've had "enough" cuddles. As to males, they will take it ALL! My sister's beagle Buddy he is a big cuddle bug compared to my mom's shih tzu girl. Bebe will growl or jump down if she doesn't want petting. She'd rather lay on the floor with no interaction while Buddy wants all the love!
Heelers are the Best ❣️🥰❤️😎🤠👍
The best!
At 0.18 looks like bluey and bandit from bluey
BLUEY!
@@DogsNowChannel yep, I LOVE BLUEY
Red Heelers are just as 'everything' that blues are. Only difference is coloring...so,c'monHe have had a d still do both colors,and there are mixes of colors that are beautiful
We have had a really laid back Joe Cool male and now have a rocket ship male who looks exactly like a dingo. Same breed, different temperments. Don' t go by breed standards.
2:08 you can see the dingo shinning through.
so the title says the differences but then you say they are the same except in size...
I have a 2yr old female that teaches our greyhound how to locate rabbits
Did he say 2 hrs? 😂😂😂 That's their warmup routine! 😂😂😂 I have cliff on the backside if my property with a creek in the bottom. That's where I throw my dog's Frisbee. It doesn't wear him out... ever...
no real difference except expect females to dig whelping burrows when they are in season,females tend to bite more when in season to,especially protective of puppies,my first dogs mother bit me on the back of my steelcap boots and it hurt!
😍😍😍
I’ve owned Heelers my entire 42 years of life and in my experience, the females are way more intense than the males and the reds are more intense than their blue counterparts
Thank you for commenting! That makes a long time with heelera
I've raised 3 males and females and in my experiences the females are always meaner but easier to house train.
I've had 5 heelers in over 50 years. Females that were as sweet as can be and one that would bite anything/anyone. Same with Males. Why? I don't know, they all were raised pretty much the same!
Excellent truck dog.
From puppy, (6-8weeks) need to stop and let them pee every couple hours to start. They're cry vocal and communicate by their different types of bites and noises. They will let you know they need out. In my case, she pooped where I work. An important part of a owning a great heeler is positive reinforcement when you're telling them, and strict consistent verbal admonishing.
Always consisting.
I've got a 7 yr old male and a 2 yr old female. The female runs the show at home and at the dog park.
Never talked about how much these dogs love water....Ocean rivers ponds and back of trucks
Hi Heeler lovers! I’m a single mom to a four year old boy who loves dogs and needs a dog sibling. I’m thinking a female heeler would be a great sister & protector. I live in a big house on 1.5 acres. I have a horse barn (empty at the moment) and a chicken coop (also empty). I’m waiting for my son to get a little older before we acquire any horses & chickens. However, my son is lonely as an only child and so here we are… the million dollar question is: would a female ACD make a better sibling/protector for a little boy than a male ACD? Are the female’s generally more protective of children than the males? Thank you 🙏🏼 everyone!
They’re all the same I was looking for the differences . That’s the name of this movie
I got 3 Texas heelers
I would love to have a Red Heeler Boxer or Blue/Red Heeler Whippet. Whippets are lazy - that would chill. Heeler down a little.
We had a red heeler-boxer female mix. What a beautiful mix of a real all around dog. She had a broader chest and the strength of a boxer combined with intense loyalty and intelligence. She was a great traveler with fantastic control around strangers and other dogs. She protected every home we had and knew every inch of the property. We had her for 13 1/2 wonderful years, and think about her everyday since we lost her. She intensely loved every member of our family and all of our friends.
@@ronwinkles2601 Alright! so I was right! it improves the longevity of the Boxer to mix with the Heeler, and as you say, it is a beautiful combination, so thank you for that confirmation. I am Overjoyed to know this! I was very sure that the combination would also give a bit more intensity to the Boxer, but I have never known a Boxer to be lax in alertness or attentiveness to all surroundings; they can go from Jester to Protector in a half a heartbeat. They can even know trouble is brewing around the corner for a guest in your home, who is out in the front near the street, be playing with you and when the stuff gets deep, look at you as if to say "hold that thought, be right back", and go to handle the situation.
I'm interested to know was your dog speckled? Can you describe for me what the coat was like, how the colors were dispersed? I'm just so curious to know whether it would be patches of speckles and solid colors like on one dog I had that was Jack Russell and Heinz 57 she had brindle patches, black patches, and brownish patches on white . All of her aunts and uncles look like different breeds completely, all different sizes - her own mother was part long hair brindle Dachshund, and definitely looked the part but her father pure short Jack Russell Pedigreed Pooch.
She had kind of a longish back for a Jack. Longer legs than both parents, incidentally, and her ears were huge and erect. My dog's grandmother looked like an escapee from a genetics research lab. she had a very German Shepherd snout, the definite white and black pattern on her head where the eyes and ears are black and there's a white stripe in between and coloration on the nose too like the Border Collies does, long hair coming out of her ears , white blaze on her chest, brindle patches on the front part of her body oddly placed here and there but the back part of her body looked like blue heeler colors and speckles, the front part of her chest and body looked as if it was Bulldog Boxer but the hips were very trim and slender and legs were shaped like German Shepherd. The tail look like it was taken off of a German shepherd and attached to her it was mostly black and the tiny golden red and blonde fluff that comes with it. This on the back end of a Blue Heeler looking dog who by the way had some sort of Australian Cattle Dog merle-y colors on the back of her neck, head and some shading of that sort on the outer edge of her ears which were not as big as a German Shepherds they were about the size of the cattle dog breed. She was glorious though with her big old square Pitbull head and that German Shepherd snout!
My female blue heeler is the absolute best dog ever
Awesome! Great dogs
I got a little guy named scooter
Just be careful.. Blue heelers can be a bit snappy but overall they are a great dog
