Texas Heeler

The Texas Heeler combines two of the best herding breeds—the Australian Shepherd's versatility and intelligence with the Australian Cattle Dog's endurance and determination. Originally developed in Texas for ranch work, these dogs are tireless workers and devoted companions. Texas Heelers excel in active homes and need owners who can match their energy and provide mental challenges.

Tip #1

Extreme Exercise Needs: Texas Heelers need 90+ minutes of vigorous daily activity. They thrive on herding, agility, flyball, and long hikes.

Tip #2

Mental Stimulation Critical: These highly intelligent dogs need constant mental engagement. Bored Texas Heelers become destructive.

Tip #3

Strong Herding Drive: They will try to herd everything—kids, cats, guests. Provide appropriate outlets and training to manage this instinct.
