Texas heelers are a cross between the Australian cattle dog and the Australian shepherd breeds. Found mostly in Texas and taking the “heeler” nickname from its cattle dog relatives, these dogs have loads of energy and an intelligent brain that makes for easy training. They stand about 43 to 61 centimetres in height and weigh between 11 and 23 kilograms. Texas heelers have a medium-length coat that is easy to maintain by brushing a couple of times a week. Friendly and great for families, Texas heelers love exercise and play time.

Your canine family members are very much welcome in South Dakota, one of the United States’ most pet-friendly states. From the outdoor experience of the Braeburn Addition Off-leash Dog Area in Rapid City to the Miner Brewing Co. in Hill City, there’s something to please the tastes of any dog! Truly unique attractions, including Hartford’s 1880 Cowboy Town, allow dogs to accompany their owners on-leash to participate and learn about the history and culture of South Dakota. In addition, dozens of dog parks cater to small and big dogs alike who want to let loose and sniff a few bottoms in the afternoons.
South Dakota has not formally chosen a state dog breed…but its official wild animal is the coyote. Close enough!
The most popular name for a dog in South Dakota is Louie.
