Fun Fact:
The show BLUEY is a Blue Heeler
The Australian Cattle Dog is a high-energy working dog. His energy must be directed, or he'll become bored and will resort to entertaining himself, usually by doing something you consider naughty, like digging in the trash or digging up your flower garden.
The Australian Cattle Dog is also highly devoted to his owner and family. He usually attaches himself closely to one person and bonds less closely with others. He's often called a "Velcro" dog because he attaches so firmly; he likes to be in close physical contact with his chosen person all the time.
Because the Australian Cattle Dog was bred to herd, and herd with force, by biting, he is a mouthy dog. His instinct is to nip cattle, children, pets, cars, anything that moves. He has a strong tendency to bite, even in play.

I am 80 years old now. I had Australian Cattle dogs in Wyoming living on a ranch. Over 20 years went by. I ran out of Blue Healers. Just the other day I was in wall greens picking up medicine. A young man walked in holding a blue healer puppy who was biting him. Trying to tell him to let him go. Then I saw the dog on his own running up and down the isles. I let out a single whistle. The Blue Healer puppy spun around 180 degrees and came at a dead run straight towards me. At my feet she fell on her back and I gave her a good rub and told her she was a good girl. I could not help but wonder if this was one of my dogs who came back to check up on me.
Very cool
yes it was ...... animals will follow you throughout your life , and keep coming back to you in various forms
❤
George. I love your story. I am 74 and rescued a blue heeler a year ago. I fell hook, line and sinker for Maggie. The breed is a treasure.
Or a puppy from one of yours, they are smart you know. God Bless you, I'm preparing to get another one now.
Blue heelers don't shed twice a year. They shed all day everyday 365 days a year
Ours sheds enough to sweep it up and make another heeler! Lol!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes they do!!
@@kimberlyvespa lol.. every day 🙄
I named mine Shed. He doesn't care what I call him as long as I call him. My second one, so I knew what was coming. I love them.
I have a Red Heeler, they shed twice a day not twice a year. 😂
Smartest dog I've ever had.
Ahh a red heeled..cool. Yes twice a day! Little bit of a difference
I agree, twice a day is more correct, smarter than most people 😂
More like three times a day LOL
Right lol
Me too! I always have a bunch of hair on me no matter how many times I vacuum
I had a Blue Heeler about 30 years ago. Could not keep him in our half acre yard in suburbs. he would consistently break the fence. wanted to roam free & sleep on the front porch. He was so smart he would help us manage other animals & would often do our taxes if we were too busy.
Haha just did it all
If you're not prepared to spend 2+ hrs. each day exercising your Heeler, maybe a different breed is better for people. They aren't hyper, just hyper attentive and always "on". Also, your Heeler will bond w you and look for your commands and mental stimulation 24/7. If you don't want a dog focused on you every minute of the day, following you, standing or sitting when you do, asking for commands or action, then another breed would be better.
Thank you for the info!
Totally! My red heelers follows me around the house at my heel constantly. When my boyfriend first started hanging out with her and she did it to him he was super confused and it bothered him. Now we’ve all gotten used to it haha
Hyper attentive is a great way to put it. My heeler / pit mix is always wanting something to do, or instructions from me on what's next. It can be exhausting, but rewarding.
That is a good way to describe this breed. It took me some time to get used to Yoshi's attention. I have to be in his eyesight or close to him at all times. He ate my furniture when he was a puppy but it was worth it. Heelers let you know you have a friend
Truth! I just took over an 8 mos old from a friend, holy cow, had no idea
My ACD adopted me. Literally wandered in the back door and never left. I had noticed him in the neighborhood and saw someone trying to get him in the back of his Cadillac. The next day the dog was still around. I called my girlfriend to see how she felt about adoption. In the time it took to make the call he was perched in my back doorway. We named him Bondo. Wonderful animal. Geat friend.
Great story thanks for sharing!
My Bluey Gus is my trail dog. He is without a doubt the smartest dog that has ever owned me.
Thats awesome! They can do just about anything
Gtfo I have a red heeler named Gus 😂
@hikingwithgus sounds like he's trained you well. 🤣
@@emery6384 Had a solid black cat named Gustavio , Gus for short.
My Dakota/Blue Heeler is AMAZING. Literally the BEST dog ever. So loving and so intelligent. So happy with my Pupp.
Great name!
We have a blue heeler, Echo, he s one of the smartest most obedient dog we ever had, he s three years old , brings us so much joy , loves frisbee throwing, walks, chasing balls, exploring, hiking , we just love him so so much
Very cool name
Heelers are the toughest most adaptable dog on the planet. Super dogs.
They seem like perfect dogs
Naturally they have dingo in their blood 😉
Also, Blue Heelers are seriously intelligent and insanely loyal. They put truth in the old saying that a dog is mans best friend. Mine has saved my life many times. Even if I’m upset, he picks up on it and try’s to console me with cuddles
That’s great! Everyone that had a bluey says they are LOYAL
I’m a registered nurse and have has several breeds as I always Wes involved with obedience and dog trials. I also had horses later on and gravitated to farm breeds of dogs. Six years ago I bought a blue cattle pup as our youngest son had moved back home due to illness and a traumatic event. Being a nurse, I knew his healing would be faster with a service dog. So as I researched which breed would be best to help our son, I came across the Cattle Dog. I was honestly very hesitant to go with this breed as I read about their temperament. We happen to live in Maine and I hadn’t seen any around here. During a call with eldest son who lived in New Mexico, I was updating him about his brother. Older son got very excited saying, “Mom, this is the perfect dog for him”. He went on to tell me lots about them and since we live rural, he encouraged me to go ahead and get a cattle dog.
Younger son at the time was too ill to even bond with Cora. I still had my two aging German shepherds at the time. As Cora grew into adulthood, I was utterly amazed with her intelligence. I would often her that it was her job to help get ________ well. Two years went by with her always spending time with our son. His wife had divorced him right at the beginning of this difficult time because she couldn’t deal with everything. Needless to say, this added to the whole pot. Some physicians felt that our son wouldn’t recover. My answer always was, “Yes, but you don’t know this dog. He will recover with her help”! She rarely left his side even though he felt that Cora was my dog because I bought her.
I was so impressed with Cora that I went back to the breeder, who was a husband and wife team and also registered nurses! I had pick of the next litter and chose another blue female who we named Rylee. About 9 months after we bought Rylee, our son was well enough to return to his house. He had to do some work as it had been vacant during the almost three years he was here. It took him a few weeks to agree to take Cora to his home which is only about 10 miles away. I had asked him if he would like to take her for two weeks and if it didn’t work out, just bring her back.
She has been with him for two and a half years now. He will drop her off for day care 1-2 days a week and some weekends as he goes to radio car events with his now 16 year old son. He is a carpenter by trade. For many of his jobs, he’ll take Cora with him AT his customer’s request. She just lays right near him as he is working. A few customers take her for a walk and also down to the beach. He has met a wonderful woman who Cora loves too.
Now as a registered nurse, I feel that I have enough expertise to identify that what I have witnessed is truly a dog with healing abilities. Oh, and since son works, I’m usually the one who takes her to the veterinarian. Lol, the veterinarian had known our son prior to Cora. The entire office is always commenting how awesome both of these dogs are. Both are calm, quiet during exams and lab draws. But honestly, both of the vets are excellent with animals and so is all of their staff.
Seriously, some nurses are much better than others. I can tell because their patients always get better faster and are happier. So with Cora, it’s the way she moves and all of her expressions when she is with our son that I identify as healing. Now, Rylee is a character. Smart as a whip. You can actually see her figure out something on her own. She is bubbly without being a handful. Able to take them both anywhere and depend on their great manners. Rylee makes me laugh several times a day. Best breeds ever! I had mentioned that I had first pick of the litter. I had told my vet and the breeder that I was looking for, “a thinking dog”. Is she ever!!! Other than Cora chewing two slippers, ever had any destructive behavior, but I do have keep tabs on her when she is around my quarter horse Noel. That horse is quicker than greased lightening....can spin and kick faster than a blink. And all it takes to control her is a soft, “leave it”. And she will break her stare and move away. I know this is long, but wanted to add another perspective because if I hadn’t listened to our oldest son, we would never have been blessed and enriched with and by these two cattle dogs.
Thank you for sharing!
My fiancé had his heeler 8 years before we met and for whatever reason when we started dating she just started becoming attached to me even though she was his dog. Now she will never leave my side and is always always by me and he often jokingly calls her a traitor! 🤣 I’m a firm believer dogs can sense peoples hearts and true intentions which makes me feel even that much more connected to her! I’m so glad to her those sweet doggies helped your son through his difficult time! Dogs have a crazy way of doing that! I never liked heelers before I met my fiancé and now I don’t know what I would do without my Roxy girl! I hope your family is doing well ❤️
@@danyellgarcia2263 Thank you so much for sharing. I agree wholeheartedly, my husband and I bought ourselves a Cattle Dog 2 years after getting Cora and named ours ‘Rylee’. We have had a few conversations agreeing that Cattle Dogs are where our hearts are and now a dedicated one breed family. Rylee makes me laugh every day with her antics and she unbelievably well behaved thus fitting right in without any disruptive behaviors. It’s my belief that Rylee knew that at that time, I really needed to laugh a lot more as we were coming out of that difficult time. She continues to make me laugh at least several tiMes a day. Cora is extremely pretty and sweet and Rylee is quite happy go lucky type of gal. She has a range of facial expressions to convey what she is ‘telling’ us.
I’m sitting here mending a much beloved quilt for a niece as I read your comment. I must admit that your story warmed my heart so much. Blessings to you and sending love to Roxy, you and your fiancé. Hugs from Maine.
Thanks for the book. Geese!
@@quiltgram3056 Heelers are the type of dog that are completely different with their "family" than they are with outsiders, even when socialized well they still behave differently with outsiders, it's not until you have been truly accepted by a heeler as part of it's family that you begin to understand just how amazing this breed can be.
By far the greatest dog I ever owned. Had a female. Super smart and very very protective of the family unit!
They are great! DId you have a blue heeler or red heeler?
same here, loved our pretty blue girl, never cried as much for anyone else that died including the old man/dad.
I got my first Blue Heeler, he’s my second dog ever, let me tell you, you have to be smarter than your pup for sure. It’s awesome learning to train with this dog, I got him at 2 months, he is 8 months now. Watching his demeanor change, his self awareness and security gave him so much confidence to learn, grow. Im his person but his 12 year old pitbull brother is his “person” 🤣
We have our 3rd blue. First one lived to 12 years, second to 16 years. Our latest adoption is just 4 years old. Absolutely love them!
Thats great thanks for sharing!
Great age. Mostly done gnawing on everything.
I had a blue healer. We had kittens in the living room and he would round them up in his kennel.
Haha that’s great
I'm glad you ended that sentence with "...he would round them up in his kennel." Instead of "We had kittens in the living room and then we didn't."
"Blue Heller" lmao. First dog I ever got and had her for well over a decade until I had to let her go. Miss her more than anything. They're extremely smart, active until they're old and big shedders! ♡
Blue dogs are the Best !
Red dogs are great as well !
they are so good they make people look way below average
Have had three. More important then a ranch to run, is simply companionship. The original Velcro dog. Keep this dog with you, at home, at the job.
Thanks Mike - great comment
Im a self contracted delivery driver, my pup is always with me 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 I’m blessed
Best breed ever! I wish I only shed twice a year though!
Haha yep my mistake
@@DogsNowChannel I had another red heeler that lived to the age of 19, she only shed twice a year. Cool video!
19??? Is that right?
@@DogsNowChannel My first red heeler lived to 19 as well (almost 20), the red I have now is 10 almost 11 and still acts like a puppy with too much energy, wouldn't want it any other way though.
I just took my sassy heeler for her morning walks, she turned 5months old yesterday they are the best dog ever. They are extremely smart and will test the best of us but if you put in the time u will have a true companion
Your dog looks beautiful. Yes this dog is a lot of work a lot of reward
@@DogsNowChannel thank you she is my everything I love her to bits.
Have blue heeler border collie mix. She is 3 months old 10lbs. I walk her 1 mile before breakfast three miles after breakfast and three one mile walks the rest of the day. So 7 miles a day easy for her.
Had a blue named Tilley. When she moved in, my yard looked like a mine field 2 weeks later no more gophers, and when I would take her to the park and throw the frisbee she would never let it touch the ground and my arm would wear out before she would. Best dog I've ever had. and smart as a whip, I miss her RIP Tilly.
Oh wow sounds like a great dog. These are true dogs that love being outside chasing goohers
My girl's turning 15yrs old soon, and I can't imagine a day without her. We spent 20hrs/wk for our first 5yrs, in herding and agility. We needed to overcome negative behaviors shoe learned before I adopted her. She has not failed to argue with me a day in her life, even now that she's lost most if her sight and is riddled with arthritis. Be patient, kind, firm with a gentle voice, keep them busy and you'll have a companion for life.
Additionally, these are one person dogs! They pick their person and the velcro attaches them firmly.
Wow! Thanks for sharing. 15 is a nice long happy life for her
Jody, I was blessed to have my 1st girl for 15 years. It just killed me to have to say goodbye, but it was the kindest gift we could give her. I believe she was the exception to the rule. Pepper was perfect in every way. We did adopt shortly after. I should say we saved. Cassie was a forced surrender. She had spent her entire 9 mos of life chained outside. We were asked to adopt her because of our experience with their breed. She is 9 now, and still hates being outside unless she has to potty or patrol. That is fine by us. We had to teach her to play, eat and drink. She is happy being with these 2 old folks. That is what it's about anyway. I hope you have many years left with your special baby!
@@annsowers4591 Thanks for sharing Ann!
@@annsowers4591 my 1st cattle dog's name was Cassi as well, lol
@@DogsNowChannel will my dog stick with my kid or me
Shedding is understated, you can weave a carpet from that shedding.
Haha yes I didn’t emphasis that enough!
For real!
One of the best dogs I have ever had. Totally loyal, extremely quick to learn (which doesn't require food rewards as shown in the video - they want to please), athletic although for real endurance try an Australian Kelpie (I used to exercise the dogs by taking them riding with me for about 2 hours - the Red Heeler would be tired at the end, the Kelpie after a drink and a 10 minute rest would be ready to go all over again - you can, if not careful, work a Kelpie to death). My Red Heeler didn't like to be fussed with so we had to be careful with young children around her. She would walk away from them and if they followed trying to "play" with her she wasn't above giving them a nip and a nip from a Heeler hurts. I still miss her today nearly 30 years since her death.
Thanks for sharing!
I agree with the Kelpie! Have raised Kelpies for almost 40 years and love the breed!
These are great working dogs and need a lot{!} of exercise. Not good for apartments but great for large yards and up. They need a job and a reason to focus their amazing intellect on. Great dogs!
I love my Xena. Great dogs I love how rough she can be with me. And how gentle she is with my wife. Super smart.
That’s great. So smart and beautiful
Hey I named my Blue heeler Xena. Good choice! Lol
Had two of them. Great dogs. Super intelligent, make the best companions.
Super loyal
My service dog trained blue heeler came to me after her owner passed from Covid. I never knew about such a wonderful breed. I am so lucky! And so is she because we hike every day and I like a cozy devoted attentive companion.
That’s great! Love to hear you are active with her. So important for blue heelers
Thank you for this comment I was wondering how they would be as a service dog.
the best dogs ever
Thanks for a wonderful video to remind me of the wonderful years of BH. SHe passed in Sept 2021, and it's Jan 2022. Not a day goes by that I don't think about her and miss her. However, yes, they are great dogs. I didn't want this breed initially, but my Dad pushed her on me. And, wow, am I so glad that he did. She was probably one of best dogs that I've ever had, because I'm older now and have quite a number of different breeds. This dog was a very good house dog, but she had TOO MUCH ENERGY sometimes. She always had to have to be occupied with something or she got herself into things.
Thanks for the comment. Yes high energy but if you can manage that then they are amazing !
I was once doing a short hike near a ranch. As I got ready, a blue heeler suddenly showed up next to my car. I couldn't talk him into going home, and he ended up following me through the entire hike. When I got back, I found the owners. I told them that I didn't mean for their dog to follow me. They just laughed and said that I made the dog's day giving him something to do.
Haha wow that’s great
I have a Queensland Heeler, Red Female. As a Bear/Wolf deterrent in Russia.
Incredible breed, easy to train... She knows her job so deeply she improves and trains herself purely out of enjoyment and drive.
Edit: NOT a Breed for anyone without a ton of experience owning dogs.
Yes thanks for sharing!
Same breed…just different name…
@@leonie2316 Correct but there are sub breeds like Smithfield, Stumpy Tail and then "Australian Cattle Dog" or Qld/Halls Heelers.
The most typical and pure form of these breeds is the reds and blues with the shape and furs like the one in thumbnail.
Usually a thicc chunky dog, stumpys being slimmer. And Smithfielfs being taller/bigger but less chonky.
My blue heeler is my service dog. Heelers are such an amazing breed. Heelers will always have a special place in my heart.
Amazing dogs! Perfect for a service breed
Hold on... sheds twice a year?? Have you ever spent any time with a heeler? They shed twice a day!
Sure! They're like Dals - shed twice a year, 6 months in Spring and 6 months in Fall.
Fun weird fact… 1 month after my bluey died the constant drifts of fur around our house disappeared.
We rescued a mixed heeler; smartest dog ever!! Get a hand vac with pet brush accessory....you'll need it!! LOL
Best dogs ever.!!
Always right by your side.
I had a friend who lived in a row home. She wanted a dog for her daughter. She went to a specialist "pet social worker" and they gave her so much grief she gave up trying to get a dog. I told her to go to the ASPCA. She got a dog immediately, but she picked an Australian cattle dog. She took the dog home as it was a gift for Christmas. She left the dog in the living room and went to pick her daughter up at school. By the time she got home, the dog had destroyed the Christmas tree, made a shambles of the living room and chewed up all the Venetian blinds. I tried to help her with the dog, but it was just unsuitable for someone without a few acres for it to roam in. Wonderful dog. very smart. Make sure you can keep it from ruining your life. Might be best to buy some cattle. That should do it.
They NEED space and time to burn of energy
I have a heeler/tree walker hound, smartest dog I’ve ever had he will herd, and pin pheasants! He has all the black spots of a house and the red and blue ticking everywhere else, definitely a good boy(also named Kelly after the infamous Ned Kelly!
Awesome! Sounds like a beautiful looking dog
Two born deaf reds, neither liked baths or the pool. Most loving dogs I’ve ever had.
We love ours. Thanks for the video.
These dogs run in two speeds off and on. Please do not torture one of these dogs and try and keep it in an apartment or small yard. They are made to run and run they do! They are absolutely wonderful companions and way smarter than you can imagine.
Yes good way to put it. They are going full speed or sleeping
I have a Border Collie co worker has a Blu those 2 go all out all day everyday trying to out "work" each other it's fun to watch. Katy and Roxy look at the Energizer Bunny laugh and say amateur lol
Mine lives in an apartment and he seems completely happy. I take him out every day to the park for an hour and seems to be enough for him. But yeah I wish I lived in a bigger house with a backyard... Maybe in the near future... I always tell people to be mindful when getting a cattle dog, they are amazing but they need to be trained.
I had a Blue Healer/Border Collie cross. The most amazing dog ever! After about a year he calmed down, but before that he definitely needed to be kept busy. I could not leave him behind, as he would bark until I got back. If he was in my truck, he was happy. He rarely got the chance to work cattle, but he knew exactly what to do. He never nipped, rarely barked, and just wanted to be everywhere I was. When I was on horseback, he would walk just under the step of the horse's rear hooves. The hooves would just clear his head, as he walked along checking everything out. I sure miss BearsPaw. I had him around 15.5 years, after getting him at 8 weeks.
Oh wow must have been hyper intelligent
@@DogsNowChannel I kept his food bowl full, and the lid off his treat box. He would nibble at his food several times a day, and only eat a treat or two a day. He weighed only a couple of pounds more at the end, then he did in his prime. Definitely hyper intelligent.
@@mtevilone most dogs go nuts for food. Especially over indulging on the treats. Cool story
Awsome video , love these dogs
Thanks for watching
love how the screen said blue heller instead of heeler! that's what they are if you aren't the right person/family for the breed. we love our Sierra!
Yes thank you!! That’s what I’ll say back to all the comments on the misspelling
Great pups!!
The best point you missed , they are extremely protective of their family. I’d rather jump the fence with 3 Rottweiler than take on 1 Blue Dog . You will never get past the Blue without some serious loss of blood . They love and protect your /their family with their life.
I’ve owned many blue and love them as a wash and wear guard dog.
yes good point - people dont realize they are very protective
I recently went to stay with a Bluie while her humans were away.
Best dog ever. Show her something once and she got it. Attached to me like I’d had her since a pup. After 2 days I trusted her off the lead on fairly busy suburban streets.
Thats great! Love how she quickly learned you were the leader
In a word...PERFECT!
perfect dogs!
Awesome dogs
My red heeler was my best friend for 12 years. So smart and loyal.
I live in an apt, and my heeler does fine. I take her for walks and to off leash dog parks.
Thats great - nothing like an off leash park. They go nuts!
I live in NYC and was concerned-it's no problem?
@@savedbyhismercyandlove dont get a heeler, trust me. Get a lab or a golden
@@mtcmotorsports4512 Thank you,getting a Leavitt Bulldog ha!
Amazing dogs
I LOVE my blue heeler. Best dog ever
A great dog!
My favorite dog was a blue healer /redbone mix . A bright red healer that was very smart . She understood both verbal commands and hand signs . Loved children and would protect a child with its life . Do not make a child scream when she was around , bitting will be done . And what ever made the child scream will not be happy . She helped teach my children to walk by letting them grab her hair and walking slowly beside them . They would crawl all over her and loved every minute of it . Best damn babysitter ever . God bless you Jazz !
Jazz sounds amazing!
I love Blue Heelers-best dog EVER. Here’s my Beaux.
Well, it wouldn’t let me post a pic!
Great name!
I've got a healer/anatolian mix, great dog! Loves to play, but only for a bit, then goes into Anatolia mode and lays around watching everything.
Thanks for sharing!
Shedding occurs 24/7/365. You will have heeler hair on everything you touch. They are working dogs, too smart for their own good. Very food oriented.
Yes I misspoke there. They shed alot
I’ve got two and both of them are probably the sweetest dogs I’ve ever had.
Amazing dogs
Don't forget to mention that male blue heelers are often dog aggressive and female blueies can be stranger aggressive. I've had blueies for 40 years and this breed isn't a regular family dog unless the family knows how to train a dominant breed
Red or Blue I had both and they're amazing creature's smart loyal and always trying to figure out how to please you!!! Full of love and don't hesitate to give it to the right person.only God knows how much I miss ol WHISKEY AND PANCHO!!!
My 3 year old blue heeler Ringo hunts upland birds and rabbits and retrieves them . He also works cows . Great dog !
We had one 11 years. She was the most intelligent dog we have ever had.
I have :ound with all our Blue heeled that these facts are so true! I love my heeled!
Best doggo
Great dogs
Cool dog
Good job mate. Best US Video about the Blue Heeler I've seen to date: Facts correct, no useless incorrect so called facts and no nonsensical embellishment.
I had many blue heelers throughout my childhood and now I got an Australian shepherd puppy 😁
Nice! Another great dog!
Best dogs ever
My blue heeler sheds like crazy all year.
They do shed that’s for sure
@@DogsNowChannel But in the video says twice a year.
@@Relic-mt8oe Yea for 6 months each time
You have the most accurate information I've seen on the internet. I've raised the Queensland Blue heeler for many years. My favorite dog. It's mixed with the Bull terrier also making them the smartest and toughest dogs of all. They are not cultured and will bite and kill. They are insulated if you give them commands as to look at you with the, I know what I'm doing.lol love them more than humans.
Thank you for the comment!!
That my favorite Dog, Woof!
Love my blue heeler dingo mix He has Bentley on top of his head amazing family dog and wonderful all around cheers s/o from The Bay Area 🙌🏽‼️
That's awesome thanks for sharing
Great dogs. Used to have one
Thanks for watching
@@DogsNowChannel Years ago, I had a Blue I named Titus. We got him as a 6 Month old puppy, and by HIS choosing, he became MY Dog! Titus was the ONLY being created by God who could get my wife to do what HE wanted!
Very cool looking dog
So athletic
Just got me on very energetic
@@robharding2576 Awesome! beautiful dog
Red ones aren't Blue Heelers, they are Red Heelers. You should just call them Australian Cattle Dogs
Or just heelers
@@parkerhorton8318 Blue or Red they are Australian Cattle Dogs. That is the breed,
@@scottyb4606 no shit but they are also definitely heelers
Queensland Blue Heelers...
Red Heelers just happen..
Australians don't call them "Australian Cattle Dogs" why should you? They're just Cattle dogs but mostly Heelers.
Jake the best dog I've ever known. He lived to work cattle. I believe he had been born with more knowledge than most people.
yes these dogs are super smart! thanks for watching
well done
Thank you!
Had Heelers for over 40 years. They she'd all the time!! Just a little more in summer.😂🤣
Reds seem a little less aggressive.. but both will do whatever it takes to protect their person!!
I've had quite a few of both.. currently have 2 of each. All working dogs!!! Excellent gard dogs!!
BTW, you forgot to mention, they're born almost completely white.. most people don't know that.
Thank you sir for sharing!
Very good watch dogs, and loyal.
Super loyal - great dogs
My blue/red heeler is great to run 🏃♂️ with cool at the dog park herds my grandkids very gentle when he wrestles and bites them but mostly wants to lay in the house all day
Great dog to run with
They do need acreage to run and a job to do. My son has 2 on a small ranch in MT. They ever quit moving and gophers better be fast. Wonderful pups.
Someone else mentioned them taking down gophers as well

You won't be able to play fortnite anymore if you get 1 lol
Nice shooting

I've had 4 heelers over 30 years. They are hardheaded, energetic, extremely loyal, and smart. They shed constantly. If you do not give them a job they will make one. They are the perfect dog. The perfect size. They are heat and cold resistant. They won't ask much and give their all. There is no other breed for me. Dear owners, please be active!
thanks for the comment - they really are the perfect dog if you can be active with them!
Do they bite people
@@fabe6478 The dogs do have a lot of bite in them. Meaning that they are very aggressive herders that bite to control or move their stock. So yes, when not properly socialized or not given a job or an outlet for their energy they can become people biters..
Just got introduced to these awesome animals. Last dog I’ll ever serve v
Amazing dogs
11. FRISBEE WORLD CHAMPION
My fella "ralph" recently won this esteemed title from the staffordshire down the end of the street.

NIce work!!
I love my blue heeler, best dog I eve had.
What was her name?
@@DogsNowChannel Her name is Pippa.
@@DogsNowChannel I still have her, she going on 3 years old now.
@@timothyadams7599 oh nice! shes will be even better going forward
The biue healer knows more than you will ever know,
haha thats true
Had a red healer. And for 17 years, she never stopped working. She would never go to bed until everyone was in bed.
Thats great thanks for sharing
i love blue heelers
Great dogs
omg thanks for ading a coment
Idk, they were pretty vague about some things. And I don't agree with a few "facts". My uncle has a beef ranch and he too uses the heeler. This breed has got to be one of the most intelligent that I know of. And all they want to do is work and please their master. When I visit that dog is literally glued to my side from the moment he greets me on the driveway to the minute I head out. My uncle is getting older so he doesn't work him as much. He knows when I show up it's time for adventure. So incredibly loyal
Thanks for sharing!
30 years of Heelers, they are pack animals if you have more than one.
They need to work or at least some hard playtime otherwise they become unruly.
They are not suited for small spaces. They need room.
They are smart.
If you want them to live past 12 years then invest in the best food not cheap junk or they will die early.
Oldest dog on record
A Heeler, 29 years 11 months.
Thanks for sharing! Yes the theme with this dog is exercise and space! They need and want to be running and playing
What do you feed your Heelers?
I just got blue healer pit mix and holy they are alot of work
Oh man that’s quite the mix. New video coming out soon in blue heeler mixes
I have a Blue. His name is Roscoe. Smartest critter on 4 legs I've ever known. Heelers are scary smart.
i like that name!
Mine definitely sheds twice a year. Once for 6 months and then again for another 6 months.
haha see you get it! Thats what I meant lol
I noticed you showed the doggies in your video playing with water hoses. We have two BH's and they absolutely love chasing, attacking, biting and playing with water coming out of the hose. It is so much fun, but I kinda wonder why they are so focused on the water? Something in their breeding? And your video was spot on. It is nice to know our boys are doing everything they are bred to do, even when I don't have all the energy they do. heh
That is awesome! Thanks for sharing!
They just love water, natural swimmers, my Bundy used to drive us mad to take him to the dam on the farm. He had a collection of two foot long pieces of poly pipe, we had to throw them out, he'd swim out and collect the pipe, get into the shallows and then beat the water with the pipe to make a big splash everywhere. Then he'd bring the pipe over, drop it at my feet and start all over again. I have had a lot of blue and red's now on the farm and just loved all of them. Truly marvellous dogs and so so intelligent.
