Overview:
The Australian Cattle Dog, often affectionately called a "Blue Heeler" or "Red Heeler," is a robust and intelligent breed originating in the 19th century in Australia, specifically bred to herd cattle over vast distances in challenging terrain. Physically, they are medium-sized, compact dogs, typically weighing between 35-50 pounds, with distinctive short, dense double coats in blue or red merle patterns, often featuring tan markings. Their alert, pricked ears and strong, muscular build reflect their working heritage. Temperamentally, they are loyal, energetic, and highly intelligent, requiring significant mental and physical stimulation to prevent boredom and destructive behaviors. While devoted to their families, their strong herding instincts can lead them to "nip" at heels, making them generally not ideal for apartment living or inexperienced owners. They thrive in active households with ample space and a job to do. Health-wise, they are a relatively hardy breed, but some may be prone to progressive retinal atrophy (PRA), deafness, and hip/elbow dysplasia. Early socialization and consistent training are crucial for a well-adjusted Cattle Dog.
