About the Australian Cattle Dog
To control semi-wild cattle over long distances in the hot, unforgiving Australian backcountry, Heelers had to be tougher than the average sheep herder, or even the average European herder. They had to be nimble, resilient, and highly intelligent, but also courageous and rough-and-tumble. These traits persist today, in a bold, energetic, biddable, tough dog ready to take on any challenge. They make great companions, but can be hard to manage unless well-trained. Learn more
