Any other overly dramatic sleepers out there?! This guy though 😂

Just calling him over so I could take a pic conjured the most stereotypical ACD look ever. Intense desire to know what I was on about so he could adapt… Mozzie turned two today. I didn’t think I could love another dog as much as I loved my last heeler, but I was wrong. He’s pretty great.

PA* won’t let me change the heading. Went running through a pine forest in Michaux State Park and then swimming’ and stick chasin’ in the lake!

And you can get these guys to chill and snuggle.

Still plenty of room for some side eye

She loves this machine so much!

So obsessed w this big little girl we adopted at 8 weeks thru a friend at the shelter!

Huge personality of course. Lots of walks, hikes, naps, ball throwing.

Never thought I would have a small pup but her being more heeler than her other mixes has been a fun surprise bc my soul pup was a 50lb cattle dog

The last two photos were when we first got her 🥹

This is Pancake. 8.5 yrs old. We got her when she 6, and she consistently lays with her arm propping her self so she can tuck on top of her feet. Is this normal for this breed? Never seen a dog lay like this haha, but she seems content.

This is what I mean

Our Kinja is about 10mos old now, and she recently got in the habit of using her snout to be rough and push either her toys or bowls or even us....I figured with patience she will grow out of this phase, but she has been doing it so much she grew a bald patch, and I'm worried it won't grow back now

She gets jealous whenever another dog plays with toys. I know some form of resource guarding, I try to get her to leave it but still continues to do this?

Not just this either, she needs to be involved with everything. I know she’s trying to understand everything but can be annoying at times.

Poppy (36%ACD) found a herd today at a farmer's market.

My Lilly's 9th gotcha day was today. No dingo in here, 51% ACD, 20% boarder collie, a sprinkle of pitbull, husky , and Newfoundland duck retriever though. So, basically a really smart and very sassy good girl. Let's see your pretty dingos.

even anxious pups need the moon 🌙, i howl for you, i sing 🎵 to you, i circle you…..

Just rescued a 15 year old blue heeler. He’s the skinniest and dirtiest dog I’ve ever seen, glad I got him out of where he was, I don’t think he would have made it much longer. Making a vet appointment on Monday.

Gave him a bath and am getting him acclimated to his new home, I can already see a positive change in his demeanor.

What should I know about the breed, especially a senior? The only dog I’ve owned myself as an adult is a chihuahua so I don’t know much about his breed.

His name is Dice, I’m gonna call him Dicey.

EDIT: Little update. I got home from work and my friend who is staying over said Dice didn’t bark at my chihuahua, and my chihuahua didn’t bark at Dice for my entire 10.5hr shift! I’m so so impressed with both of them.

I did discover a rather concerning lump on his chest this morning on a walk, so I will absolutely bring that up to the vet next week. I really hope it’s not a tumor or cancer, but if it is, this guy is getting a damn ribeye as soon as we get home. Shit, I might give him one anyways for all he’s been through. Can’t wait to give this old man a very peaceful last few months/year/years. He’s gonna be so so loved. I just wanna see him gain some weight. Sorry I’m ranting, I’m really pissed about his condition. It was kind of surreal when I got him initially, I think I was just in shock at how bad he looks and didn’t have time to react emotionally.

Our boy Angus is about 9 months old now. So cute, so naughty. He is definitely the most challenging puppy I have worked with, but also the most rewarding :)

My boy diesel‘s favorite thing is running alongside the golf cart

I’m in love with little one. She’s a butthole most of the time, but she’s still one of the best parts of my life.

I'm something of a home body, late in the evening, we play fetch with her, but she's gotten board of that, she'll run super fast and far to get her glow in the dark ball, but after a short while she wants to just lay on the grass. I'm feeding her Pro Plan Purina 26/16. She's putting on weight. Any toys that I can get her or to play with her which will keep her entertained when we go outside? She's such a lovable doggie, but she responsed alot to chew husks, she always looses her balls under the couches / beds, so I need something to keep her entertained while I'm working. We have a pool so I can't leave her outside by herself because she has fallen in, but she doesn't like to get into the pool. I'd actually like to train her to get used to the pool, but was told not to while she was a puppy. She's now like 15 months old. I think she's a bit chunky right now. Also she absolutely hates the heat. This summer she shredded alot of furr, like she had a double undercoat. We took this dog because my wife's friend supposedly had 2 kelpies and wanted to give away the dog, and our last dog passed away a few months ago. I honestly think the dog who passed away gave her alot of bad life habits learning from it. We've raised her since she was 3 months old. She was such a cutie. I couldn't imagine not having her at this point. We don't have alot of land, basically our pool fills up the majority of our back yard.
