NOTAGS Report post Posted 12 hours ago I’ve had dogs my whole life, other when I was in college. Usually had two, I guess so they can keep each other company… sometimes it’s two too many. Had labs for almost 35 years, but threw in a Heeler due to their longevity, he’s 6-7, and bat crap crazy still after 6 years. Super loyal, way too smart. Came from the pound, had been beaten badly , took a long time to restore trust with the dog. Now he’s a little too protective of his people , but it keeps the relatives from wanting to stay over. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Swivelhead Report post Posted 10 hours ago What ever breed you end up with, suspect it'll be sleeping on your bed in no time. Never had a cow dog but know they are super smart. Bred to be aggressive, biting (cows) is what they do. Socializing is likely a necessity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They have two coats, and they both grow like weeds. I’ve had labs, both long and short hair, and they shed. Normal amounts. I’m surprised the Navajos didn’t start raising Heelers for their fur instead of sheep.. ACDs start shedding, they look like they’ve got the mange… patches and tufts. Great dogs, but, if hairs a dealbreaker, get something ending in Oodle,, or an Airedale or a Welsh terrier. I’m told they don’t shed . But never owned one so don’t quote me.
