Very cute! With that background she will be a working fool! She'll keep you on your toes!

Myla is absolutely adorable!!! She looks like an innocent little angel. I bet you know otherwise though LOL.

ADORABLE!!!
I think you have her harness on backwards. lol Might be a bit hard to get it on her that way as she gets bigger. For now I'm sure it's fine on that way.

LOL, actually I "had" it on right, my teenager gave her a bath and I didn't notice she put it on like that
I don't want her to walk backwards
She's a cow dog through and through, lol, typical nippy, bossy, demanding herding dog, but otherwise lots of fun so far

She's into everything, digging, chewing, tearing paper up, lol, and generally being a butt.
Luckily I'm a homebody and have lots of time to mold her into a good family dog.
Cow dogs take some extra work that other dogs don't NEED, as in controlling the herding instinct, and wow does she ever have that.
Without keeping that in check and teaching them how far they can go, and constantly re-enforcing that line, they can end up biting/nipping every child or stranger that enters their domain.
Once they become adults though you'd be hard pressed to find a more loyal dog.

Cute little thing! I had an Aussie for about ten years, AWESOME dog. He would constantly herd the cattle on our property

[SlitherinSisters]

Me too!!!! Yours looks like a cutie!!

This is my little sister's dog. If you thought your cow dog was a mutt!.....Her name is Knockout, she's blue healer, beagle, rat terrier! (OLD picture)



Knockout's favorite thing to do! It's always amazing to get a dog that is bred so heavily for a certain job that you don't have to teach them they just know! One day I was fighting my horse to get in the trailer-for two hours as usual, she pulled me down and ran over me. I started crying and out of nowhere Knockout started biting my horse's hocks and chased her right in the trailer! It was amazing!

That is a kewl looking cow dog mutt, lol.

Myla was so easy to teach fetch to it amazed me, she does it with a passion.


I've caught her more than once sleeping in her food bowl, lol.

My dad has a full blooded blue heeler. He loves him, and that dog loves my dad with a passion. Not to mention he never had to house train it, and he doesn't use the restroom in the house.
