Help Notes:
Ranching is challenging and sometimes a very dangerous lifestyle for both the
people that live it and the dogs that work the rancher's livestock.
Tail docking is in part done for the safety of the dog and especially for the cleanliness of their coat/hair.
The docked tail also easily distinguishes a coyote or wolf colored dog from being mistaken as a predator.
It also keeps the working dog's tail free of burs, thistles & stickers that naturally grow here.
When a tail is docked on a young pup, as they grow to maturity and full physical strength and enter the work crew, they do not have balance issues because of their docked tails!
Through the years As I have watched dock & natural bob tailed dogs work I have never noticed a difference between the ones with long tails verses the docked tails where balance is concerned.
They all have excellent balance according to their own abilities!
Thinking otherwise is ignorance & the voice of inexperience on your part!
Keep your rude blog comments & rude, threatening emails to yourself!

More Dog Pics & Other Details Below!
Sam & his daughter Tina

Note the natural bob tails!
Tina has a increased chance of producing them with a mother & father that have natural bob tails.
They will be better suited as working cow dogs, but if you think you can keep them busy in your fenced in back yard then I'll sell them to you as long as you give me the option to buy them back for the price I sold them to you, instead of taking them to the pound or animal shelters. That way I can place them in a good ranching/farming home so that they can do what they are bred to do!! WORK!!


Tina
(my current breeding female)
^ 2004 ^ 2004

^ 7/10/04 ^ 2007

^ 2008 Pics ^
Tina
Tina is a daughter of Sam, the half Lab, Heeler, Border Collie, Aussie mixed male
pictured down the page below Roscoe's pictures.
Tina is a carbon copy of her mother, who was a full blooded, runt of the litter
(possibly a mini Aussie), black/white & tan full blooded Aussie,
but with longer hair and a determined to please and work, busy body attitude!
Tina's disposition is a lot more mellow than her mother's,
however she is cautious about strangers and very protective of her home ground.
She loves children & people in general, but needs time to accept and trust them.
She is very ferocious little dog and quick behind ornery cows,
has plenty of speed and can jump easily into the truck on her own.
She only weights 35 lbs. and is light boned, built for speed & stamina.
******************************************************************
Tina's PUPPY LITTER STATS:
She has produced 11 litters to date below:
*one gray/white colored pup (litter of 2) in spring 2004, pictured above.
*a litter of 3 pups in fall 2004, 2 pictured above.

Roscoe
(not for sale)



Roscoe was whelped in Feb. of 2002.
He is a mixed breed of Red Heeler, Black/White Border Collie on his mother's bloodline.
His mother Ginger is pictured below (Red Heeler type color)
Sam, pictured below, is his sire.
Sam is half Lab and the other half is mixed with Heeler, Border Collie and Aussie in his bloodline.
Plenty of working cow dog.
Roscoe is a good heeler, always ready to get a hold of a cow's heel.
He really likes coral work and trailing cows. Tough dog! He weights 55 lbs.
Althletic enough to jump in the truck, but not built to run all day. He can work all day, just not built to run all day.
He will be the sire to a few more litters in the future and has produced several litters with Tina.
He also sired her first litter of 2, producing Smokey, the half gray/white male pup,
pictured at the top of the sold puppies section.

Sam
(not for sale)

Sam is a good cow dog and loyal companion. He is smart & tough enough to move a cow herd, horses or whatever I ask of him. He heels, rounds up & keeps the wings of the drag tucked in. He's sensitive and obedient, but not timid. His disposition is super around kids! Despite his predominantly black color, combined with Ginger he produced a wide variety of colored pups. Sam has a natural bob tail. A few of his pups come with complete bob tails and a few half tails. He has a nice short, smooth coat of hair that avoids collecting the burs and junk very well.
Sam is a 65 lb. dog and stands 21 inches tall.
Future Sam puppies await the right little red or blue heeler female.

My Experience With Cow Dogs
As a young girl I learned the value of a good cow dog after years of working cattle through canyons,
timber, brush and hot summer days. Sometimes the good ones are few and far between,
but I've learned it is mostly dependant on how the new owner or trainer handles
them and what kinds of good and bad experiences the dog has as a puppy.
Maybe more importantly is whether they are trained with a good older dog that knows how to work.
However many of my pups have been trained to work by their new owners without an older dog to teach them.
Here on our ranch, for the last 15 years, we have had good older dogs training our young pups
and it sure makes a difference.
Sam has produced just 2 litters for now, crossed on old Ginger, pictured below.
I will use him for breeding some time in the future when I find a
suitable match and have time to run two producing females.
Yes he is half Lab through his sire!
It doesn't seem to affect his natural cow dog sense from his mother's cow dog bloodline,
and if anything, enhances his loyalty, determination and quick to please attitude.
Come trail cattle with us sometime and see Sam and his pups work!
We currently use 1 male dog that is a half brothers to Tina, a son of Sam & Ginger
and they have no trouble moving our cattle.
They make good family pets and seem to guard our corn patch very well too!

Reference Stock Dogs:
Old Jasper

Jasper was the sire to the May 13th, 2006 Litter of 3 Pups.
Jasper worked for me for 14 years, whelped in the spring of 1992 and passed on in October 2006.
This Border Collie/Aussie mixed dog was a loyal, hard working companion for me.
In his younger days he used to tuck the wings of a herd in with no trouble and would drive a herd from behind on his own.
Many times as I was trailing cows by myself, Jasper would bring up the drag while I guided the herd from the flanks. Priceless!
He was a natural for laying down on command and even on his own when working a herd of cattle in order to not spook them.
He wasn't perfect, nor did he have any stock dog trials trophies or points, just a good, hard working cow dog!
That's what matters to me most of all, just getting the job done! Registration papers don't mean squat!
The May 13th, 2006 litter with Tina was Jasper's last litter that he sired.
My dear old dog BOAGIE!

Most of the dogs we currently own stem from this old Blue Heeler/Aussie mixed dog!
Boagie had a classic Blue Heeler mother and a natural bob-tailed red Aussie sire.
Boagie carried the same natural bob tail and passed it down to many of his pups and descendants.
Same, the half lab, is a grandson of old Boagie!
Boagie was one tough cow dog in his day!
He loved to break up the bulls when they were fighting out on the trail!
I don't know how he made it out from underneath them alive, but he always got the bulls seperated!
He used to track down cows hidden in the timber up on the mountain during roundups
and he could sneak in and heel a cow before they even knew he was anywhere near them.
Always a talker with his own special "Woo, Woo, Woo greeting!
He always had a 'happy go lucky' attitude and was ready to go to work anytime, anywhere.
Many times he became a protector of our children on the ranch in small, subtle ways.
He even protected my friends! What a personality! He always knew when danger was lurking nearby!
His grandson, Sam (pictured above on this page) , has that same protective, hard working Boagie attitude!
One of these days I'll post my Boagie and Sam stories on the website for all to read!
Papers don't mean squat on a real ranch! It's a dog's loyalty and hard working attitude
that gets the work done! A show dog is just that...made for show.
Here on this ranch they are bred to work!

Ginger

Ginger produced 11 litters during her life time.
She was a super mother
and raised many good cow dogs and lovable, loyal pets.
Her mother was
a short haired, black/white Border Collie
and her sire was a typical broad
headed, red merle Heeler.
Ginger produced plenty of color in her pups
because of her mixed breeding.
She is the mother to 5 of our working stock
dogs, including Blacky pictured above.
My appreciation goes out to all who purchased a Ginger puppy ,fed and
cared for them properly
and trained them well!
If I haven't heard from
you about your Ginger (crossed on old Boagie or Sam) puppies,
please let
me know how they turned out for you.
I also would like to see a picture
of them if you could send one to me!
I'd love to post them on the website too, with your name shown or if you prefer, your name withheld.

IMPORTANT PUPPY INFO
Did you know that when your puppy is growing you shouldn't touch, pet or massage their cute little ears?
Why not you say?
Well...the cartilage or tissues in their ears that later helps them stand up is tender and soft when they are young.
The more you pet or rub their ears, the more chance that the ears will flop over or look unevenly matched.
They might stand up as much as their physical genetics will allow if you don't mess with them while they are in
their puppy growing stages! I know, it's hard to not touch them!
Been there, done that and seen other dogs with excessively odd ears!
However, sometimes it is just an odd genetic occurance!
So maybe it wasn't your fault! :-)
But...why not give them a chance to grow out naturally!
