Some pics of Abigail.

Gawd my room was a tip

And a not very clear agility one

Wowe shes a smasher, very like one of mine Pip same Queen Anne legs but yours has a blacker face. Pip had one ear up and one down did Abigail have a curly tail?. Love the jumping she looks a natural, the wolf is magical as well.

Thank you for the pics they are lovely and as for your house it looks a bit like mine at times.

I used to have Heelers - cracking little dogs!

I didn't know you had a heeler! - what a cracking little dog

And don't worry about the state of your room - it just makes me feel a little bit better

Ah Brighteyes another Heeler fan do you have any piccies?.

She had shocking Queen Anne legs yes, I would have liked to have had a litter from her but she really wasn't good enough. Her tail only curled occasionally, a lot of times she carried it straight and level with her back. It was amazing how many people coming to see GSD puppies thought she was one of them.
My house is a little tidier now, that pic was taken about 20 years ago when I had a 3 year old child in the house, she makes just as much mess now but is nearly 23 and away at university!

Great pics!!
I always fancied having a heeler.
Am i right in thinking that they are quite rare now, one of those breeds that went out of fashion.

Fii Lancashire Heelers are still a rare breed as far as Im aware. There were never really fashionable and I think thats a good thing. There are 2 types Norfolk & Lancashire bloodline. I had the Norfolk bloodlines which were bred for temperment thanks to Mrs Mcintosh of toffee fame. The Lancashire lines tend to be sharp ie bite first ask questions later but all the same dogs. Although my 2 looked very different people often asked if they were Rottie pups.
