About Australian Cattle Dog / Blue Heeler Dogs

Australian Cattle Dogs, also known as Blue Heelers, are tough, intelligent herding dogs bred to drive cattle across the rugged Australian outback. They are incredibly loyal and form a deep bond with their primary person. Their blue or red speckled coat and alert expression reflect their working heritage.

Adopting an Australian Cattle Dog means gaining a devoted, energetic partner who excels at learning and working. They need a job to do and thrive with active owners who can channel their boundless energy into constructive activities.

Local Climate & Pet Care

Winter

12°F to 35°F

Dec – Feb

Omaha winters are cold with snow, ice, and biting wind. Bundle up short-haired breeds in insulated coats and limit time outdoors during wind chills below zero. Rinse paws after walks to remove road salt and de-icing chemicals.

Spring

32°F to 68°F

Mar – May

Spring is pleasant but brief, with rapidly warming temperatures. Severe thunderstorms are possible as warm and cold fronts clash over the Great Plains. Gene Leahy Mall and the Riverfront parks are excellent for pet walks as conditions improve.

Summer

62°F to 90°F

Jun – Aug

Hot, humid summers with severe thunderstorm risk call for careful planning of outdoor activities. Walk in the morning or evening and carry water for your pet. The Missouri River trails and Heartland of America Park offer scenic but exposed routes, so seek shade.

Fall
