on This Breed
From Simi, Lancaster, SC We have two of these dogs and they're wonderful. I have had any different
breeds in the past, but this one is tops for me: A medium-sized breed who is
extremely intelligent, loyal and eager to please.
From Danielle, Queensland, Australia I have a wonderful Stumpy Tail Red Cattle Dog and she is the most loyal and
loving companion I've ever had. She is wonderful with children and our other dog
and 2 cats, she dotes on them all! But she is also very protective and a
wonderful guard dog. What a wonderfully intelligent and loving dog the cattle
dog is.
From Erin, Tennessee I absolutely LOVE this Breed. They are so loyal and have such heart. I have
a friend that had one and he was working at a stock barn and were trying to move
a pin of some pretty rough cows. One of the cows turned back and charged
the guy. The dog took on the cow and gave him time to get out of the way. Sadly
the dog died. But that is the kind of loyalty they have they would die for there
owner. They are more often than not a one person dog and need a lot of social
interaction because they are so protective. It they are not they can be ill
toward strangers. But I wouldn't have any other breed. My 4yr. old and 15mo. old
can do anything they want with our "Sam" He is like our middle child
And he wouldn't let anything happen to either of them. I could go on and on. ewlangford@hotmail.com

I have two red queenslands and they are two of
the best behaved dogs I've ever owned. I have
had blue heelers in the past but these two red
ones are a first for me. Their names are Lilo
and Stitch. These dogs are loyal to the max.
They'll do anything you ask of them. My two
welcome anyone in the yard. Well the one is a
little cautious but she doesn't bark too much.
Once I greet the visitor all is well in heeler
land. They learn quickly and remember what you
teach them. If you ask me you can't own a
better dog. I also have a Border Collie and
she is wonderful as well.
