    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

    Re: Cow dogs rock

    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!

    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.

    Talking Re: Cow dogs rock

    That is so awesome that someone else has cow dogs!!!! YES they totally ROCK!! I had my first ACD years ago. A blue named Bandit. Ever since then i was hooked.

    Here are my 2 now. Both pure blood Australian cattle dogs. Radar, my blue heeler, came from the ACD rescue here in IL, and Kain, the red heeler, came from a rescue in IN.

    Re: Cow dogs rock

    Oh and did you know if your dog is an ACD & Australian shepard mix its considered a Texas heeler? They actually breed them that way and sell them as texas heelers. It captures all the best of both breeds but tones down the dogs attitude and wild behaviour from the Dingo in their blood. I almost wish my 2 were a mix LOL! Especially the red. He's absolutely CRAZY & mean as hell! Radar on the other hand is just a big baby. Protective but nothing but a baby once he meets you.

    So now you can tell everyone your have a texas heeler!

    Lol yeah I'm planning to get a healer mix some day when I do get one. The blue healer mixes are awesome, they keep the best qualities of the blue healer! You're ACDs are the CUTEST!

    Awesome, I did not know that.
    Well I'm glad something toned her down, hahah, she's go go go, then sleep sleep sleep, lol.
    She is such a typical heeler, very funny dog at times.
    She's a nipper big time, we are working on teaching her "no bite" and she is doing very well with it.
    Toys, toys and more toys are the key to keeping her busy.
    She has plenty of chew up toys, and so far no chewed up people things, no chewed up couch, etc.
    This dog has so much play in her it's crazy, but I love it, and knew what I was getting into, and have a nice yard and secluded area off street so she has tons of room to do her thing.
    A handy shovel is a necessity with cow dogs, man do they love to dig

    I never get enough of the different kewl patterns the acd's have, including yours, I just love em.

    Lol she is a neat looking mutt! My mom is so funny, she loves that dog to death and she always worried people think she's the ugliest dog ever! She always asks "is Knockout hideous?" NO! She's cute!

    You're pup is so cute!!! It is amazing how easy they are to train. Knockout is so happy to do tricks for us. You'll have a blast teaching that dog how to do things. They are SMART.

    I used to drive a Geo Tracker when I was in high school and the horn would work when they car was off and the horn was really easy to push. If I left Knockout in the car and when in a store she would STAND on the horn till I came out and as soon as I turned around she was honking again! People in the store would say "what on earth is that person's problem!" Then I would sheepishly say "uh....that's my dog....."
