Frequently Asked Questions
About
Australian Cattle Dog
Puppies
What makes Australian Cattle Dogs special?
With a long lineage of cattle herding ancestors, the Australian Cattle Dog, also called Blue or Red Heeler or Queensland Heeler, is known as a tireless, loyal breed that loves having something to do. They need mental and physical stimulation to stay out of trouble, but if you can keep them entertained, they’ll be wonderful companions. Full-grown, they typically weigh 35-50 pounds and stand 17-20 inches tall.
How do Australian Cattle Dogs behave around young children?
Australian Cattle Dogs are generally okay with older children who know how to handle dogs. Australian Cattle Dogs make ideal companions for children and other dogs if they’re socialized at a young age and treated with respect. Their herding instinct may cause them to nip at running kids, so training is important to teach them good behavior. They're relatively quiet and don't bark much.
How do I keep a Australian Cattle Dog physically active?
Australian Cattle Dogs have loads of energy and need lots of mental and physical stimulation. Otherwise, they're likely to get into trouble. Their herding roots make them great companions for running, biking, and other outdoor activities. Overall, their exercise needs are very high.
How much brushing and bathing does a Australian Cattle Dog need?
The Australian Cattle Dog’s outer coat is weather resistant, short, and a bit rough. The inner layer is short and thick. They are born with a white coat, but it darkens over time to become red-speckled or blue/blue mottled, and they often have markings as well. Grooming-wise, this breed is low-maintenance.
Can a Australian Cattle Dog live in an apartment?
Australian Cattle Dogs are best suited for a rural property or home with a large yard. Australian Cattle Dogs are wary of strangers, so they may not be the best fit for homes with constant visitors. They’re an indoor/outdoor breed that needs the space of a home rather than the tight confinement of apartment. They are fairly easy to train.
Frequently Asked Questions
About
Mountain Cur
Puppies
What kind of dog is a Mountain Cur?
The Mountain Cur is a courageous hunter and protector. They are loving and affectionate toward their owners, but are very strong-minded when it comes to doing what they want. Mountain Curs can become over-protective and require an assertive, experienced owner. Full-grown, they typically weigh 30-60 pounds and stand 16-26 inches tall.
Are Mountain Curs a good choice for families with kids?
Mountain Curs are generally okay with older children who know how to handle dogs. Mountain Curs can adapt to life indoors or outdoors and generally get along well with children and other animals when raised together. However, they do have a tendency to see cats and other small furry critters as something to chase. They're very vocal and bark quite a lot.
How do I keep a Mountain Cur physically active?
The Mountain Cur’s heart sings when working a game trail for its master. They live for the thrill of the hunt and the adventure of chasing down a scent. You’ll need to plan intense daily activity for your Mountain Cur and frequent trips to areas where they are safe to roam free and follow their nose. Overall, their exercise needs are very high.
What kind of coat care does a Mountain Cur require?
Mountain Curs have a short, easy-care coat. They range in color from tan, to red, to dark brown and brindle. An occasional brushing to remove dead and loose hair is all they need to keep their coat in tip-top shape. Grooming-wise, this breed is moderate.
Where do Mountain Curs do best — city or country?
Mountain Curs are best suited for a house with a good-sized yard. Mountain Curs fit best in rural homes where they have plenty of safe space to play and are happiest in families that will take them hunting. They need plenty of time outdoors every day, as well as lots of interaction with humans. They are highly trainable and eager to learn.

Visit or Video Call the Breeder
Visit in person if possible, or request a live video call to meet the puppy, see its living conditions, and meet the mom. Ask to see where the dogs eat, sleep, and play.
Get a Vet Exam Immediately
Have a vet examine the puppy within two days of bringing it home, even if it seems healthy.
Request Complete Health Records
Ask for vaccination records, deworming history, and vet exam results. For purebreds, ask for parent health clearances.
Get Everything in Writing
Written contract with health guarantees, return/refund policy, and spay/neuter terms. Verbal promises are unenforceable.

Pay with a credit card or another traceable method that offers buyer protection. Avoid wire transfers, crypto, or gift cards, which are difficult to recover.
Verify Breeder Credentials
Check USDA license, state breeder license, breed club memberships, and reviews. Ask for buyer references.
Know What to Look For
A trustworthy breeder welcomes visits, specializes in one or two breeds, prices fairly, and gives you time to decide without pressure.
Know Your State's Laws
Some states have lemon laws; others rely on contract law. Know your rights before you buy.
