These pups are 4 wks old they have had thier first worming and plan to have them wormed 3 more times before departure to new loving owners. Theyll also recieve thier first set of 5 in 1 as soon as they are old enough...thier tails are docked....they are bred through a black with tan mother austailian shepard....and their father is a blue heeler both full bred I have pictures of parents....we do not have papers....but we are full bred Texas heelers....these dogs are very intelligent easily trained family and working dogs....they are eager to please their owners and need lots of outdoor exercise....they are very loyal and pertective of their owners...kid friendly unless they feel that their family is in danger they are very mild natured pets little to no barking unless their is a possible danger nearby....itss thier nature to do thier job as a heeler amd a herder n shepard so with this mix you cant go wrong if you are a rancher for sure...even just wanting a loyal companion pet this is the dog for you....if you dont have the time or room to train or let them have exercise i wouldnt suggest having them. This breed ll be by yourside or is always attentive to your needs or whereabouts. They have a thick coat of hair that ll need to be brushed at least couple good times a week to maintain healthy coat...n shedding. They do not require alot of maintence or too much attention.....even though they are always near you .Excelent choice for familys with or without children. They can load up naturally when grown flat footed into your truck bed without the tailgate down very fast and agile! Besides their cuteness! I really enjoy this breed.
