This next one is a bit of a tear jerker, so be forwarned.

Thanks so much Red.  Hope everyone enjoys this as much as I did.

wow...that is amazing....Red you were right, that second one sure is sad.  it's crazy how attached we can get to our dogs.  We treat our red heeler like family, but he sure does get "grounded" alot.  Is it just me, or are Australian Cattle Dogs pretty much the smartest dogs around?  (clapping)

I love my ACD but I'm not sure he's the smartest dog on the block. He's terrified of storms, hates cats, & at times makes a pest of himself wanting to chase the cows. But he is a big baby, terrific companion & good all around dog.

Yes, my heeler loves to herd me sometimes. Of course maybe I need it! I do know he once laid beside me when I had a seizure & blacked-out. He was there licking my hands & all upset.
I still want the CORGI!!!!! (dog)

I had a great heeler, she would tail the calves when I was breaking them to lead. Lost her in the divorce.

That's one dog that should have been cloned.  Anyone know if they did or tried?

What a great video. I love my heeler. A little bull headed but nonetheless she can be smart when she feels like it. She has drug me to the ground a few times though...all in play so we try not to 'run from her'. lol  (dog)
