We have welcomed a beautiful Australian Cattle Dog , also known as a Red Heeler named Kallie into our family.
I have never owned a purebred herding breed. I have always had lab mixes, scent hound mixes etc.
She is amazing. I couldn't ask for a better puppy!
I use only positive reinforcement training using the clicker with treats,toys or whatever motivates the dog.
I plan on doing agility with her as well as possible herding trials.
Hope you enjoy our ups and downs and adventures of owning a ACD.
Does anyone have an ACD?
I do. I also foster rescue dogs and provide training programs in my geographical area. :)
ReplyDeleteShe is beautiful. We're not as familiar with this breed, so it it will be interesting to learn more from your blog. We're looking forward to reading!

ReplyDelete@DogsDeserveFreedom : Great. What are your experience with them? Any tips on training ACD?
