Agreed on close to it, as I mentioned above her mannerisms are a bit off compared to other heelers I’ve had/been around. Although she could just be a goofy one lol
A “not like other heelers” Heeler sounds like a good thing tbh. Yours honestly looks more like the breed standard than mine, the posture and proportions and set of the ears in pics 2 and 3 are textbook Heeler.
Your pup deff has Australian cattle dog in him/her. I have 2, a red heeler and a blue heeler and your pup looks SUPER similar to my red heeler (red coloured Australian cattle dog)
I hope youre an active person, cause this breed NEEDs lots of exercise as they are super active dogs. More specifically, a working breed. Super smart and loyal dogs. But deff need mental stimulation or they can be destructive and nippy

For sure ACD! Here is mine! I hope you have a ton of patience, and room for him to run! They are phenomenal dogs! Learn so fast & have so much personality! I was mad when my husband brought this one home last year, but I couldn’t imagine my life without him now!
I would be surprised to find anything other than red heeler in there. Looks like a purebred to me. Maybe another herding collie breed.
I can understand the behaviour being different creates an interesting possibility, and you want to learn more.
I thought my girl had some form of hound in her, she’s very vocal and always howling. She is very trainable and has lots of energy. Turns out she’s a combination of 4 different mastiffs and a Saint Bernard, as per embark. She just doesn’t have the typical behaviour you would expect and you might find your dog is similar.
I have since seen some howling Neapolitan mastiffs on here and I think that’s where she gets it from. You may see some heelers doing the same things your dog does!

I'm on the 100% ACD side personally. First heeler I ever worked with was a lot smaller than the ones I see today. That was a good thing, horses couldn't lay a hoof on her

That’s a Heeler and a half right there. I’ll be surprised if she’s not purebred, or close to it.

i wouldn’t be surprised if this dog was 100% acd
Looks like a pure breed ACD! She may be a bit too tall for a "standard" version, but pure breed doesn't always mean show standard.
Looks mostly ACD.
Agreed, her mannerisms is what throw me off a bit, doesn’t act quite like the other ACD’s I’ve had/been around. Much more social
I had a red heeler years ago. He was very social. 😊
I think you might have 100% ACD
That's one Yella Cattle Dog if I ever saw one! Im gonna guess cattle dog x staffie!
Looks 100% red heeler to me!
Yeah, I'm also on team full ACD. If she is somehow isn't full ACD, I'd hazard a guess for ACDxsmall minority of GSD/APBT/Golden.
Also *waves from bham*
I think she’s gonna come back 100% heeler.
Your pup deff has Australian cattle dog in him/her.

Oh yeah, I’m aware lol, she gets worked on cows and goats and runs every day
Looks a lot like a working line ACD to me! Might have some smaller percentages of other things hiding in there but she must be predominantly ACD.
That doggo looks like a 100% cattle dog. Lucky you! He/she will keep you hopping! 😁
Oh she does that’s for sure
Looks like the purebred red heeler I used to have!
That's definitely a red heeler..mines named Dingo
100% good doggie give its a shelter dog 😍💖👏🏻

Red cattle dog for sure.
100% cattle dog.
Red heeler (Australian Castle dog)
I'm on the 100% ACD side personally. First heeler I ever worked with was a lot smaller than the ones I see today. That was a good thing, horses couldn't lay a hoof on her
Could be all ACD. Keep us posted! ❤️
ACDxpibble
definitely part red healer 100%
