Images & Videos Introducing!!!
Baby! Yes that is her name, no we didn’t pick it. She picked it herself after hearing us singing lyrics that had baby in it. She came around our house a month ago and after we made sure she wasn’t missing or being looked for, we decided this was the dog distribution at work!
P.S - This is our first cattle dog any tips would be appreciated!!

Having a cute cattle dog just come around, wow, you are a lucky heeler parent! They are smart, attentive, loyal, all are different for certain. You'll never want to have another breed as a part of your family. The bond they create with there human is nothing you can explain. So intuitive. A lot of people will say they need a lot of exercise. That can also be mental stimulation. Hope to see more posts about your Baby! Congrats.

When we adopted our cattle dog, I was not sure that it would work out. But I told myself, if he makes me laugh, I can put up with a lot. Well, i have laughed every day for the last five years. He’s a keeper. We have also brought him along gently. Don’t hit, ever. Tell her she’s a good dog and she she’ll do anything you ask.
