Australian Cattle Dog Puppies for Sale, Breeders

Australian Cattle Dog - A sturdy, medium sized breed with ample energy and intelligence to match, Australian Cattle dogs are most known for their unique coat and vigorous work drive. Their short-haired, weather-resistant double coat can be seen in blue or red, speckled with markings in black, blue, or tan on its head and body. Their dense undercoat is covered by a short, straight outer coat, and is easily groomed. Two widely set, pricked ears frame the Australian Cattle Dog’s broad, slightly rounded head, also adorned by a pair of brown, oval-shaped eyes. Growing in a slight curve, the Australian Cattle Dog’s tail reaches its’ hocks. Known as one of the more intelligent breeds, Australian Cattle Dogs are easily trained, enjoying any and all activity they can take part in. They require frequent stimulation and activity, with a tendency to easily bore if left alone or for long periods of time. Brave, loyal, and alert, Australian Cattle Dogs make athletic and attentive watch, herding or guard dogs. As their natural guarding and herding instincts are especially strong, Australian Cattle Dogs do best living in homes with single owners, without small children or other animals or pets. The Australian Cattle Dog, also known as the Australian Heeler, Hall's Heeler, Queensland Heeler, Blue Heeler, or Red Heeler, was first bred during the 19th century to herd cattle on Australian ranches. With an unsurpassed knack for effectively and efficiently managing cattle across harsh, Australian terrain, this breed’s name was derived from a technique used to herd cattle, by snapping and biting at their heels. Growing to reach 17-20” in height and weighing 30-35lbs once fully mature, Australian Cattle Dogs generally live to reach 12-15 years of age.
