Breed overview
Overview:
The Texas Heeler is a dynamic crossbreed, originating from the deliberate pairing of the Australian Cattle Dog and the Australian Shepherd, predominantly in, as its name suggests, Texas. This intelligent and energetic canine typically boasts a medium build, with a strong, athletic frame well-suited for an active lifestyle. Their coat can vary widely in color and pattern, often displaying the striking merle or mottled markings of their parent breeds. Temperamentally, Texas Heelers are known for their loyalty, eagerness to please, and high energy levels, making them excellent companions for active individuals or families who can provide ample exercise and mental stimulation. Due to their herding instincts and need for space, they are generally not suitable for apartment living and thrive in homes with yards. While generally robust, they can inherit health concerns common to their parent breeds, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, and certain eye conditions. Prospective owners should be prepared for a dedicated and engaging canine partner.
