Wow, my heeler saved my life when I seriously I was taking my last breath. July 27, 2014 back highway nowhere Wyoming. Had been stranding and trying to find help in 90+ mph winds. On a bridge over rr tracks a semi trucks passing wind literally pick my 135 pound up and blew me over the side. I went over and fell, they told me '65, I landed on a cement slope, and all I felt was unbearable pain. I didn't lose consciousness, and knew they would never find me, tried to move. I knew it was the end, actual said "God save me or take me home", as I was drowning on my own blood. I heard Pepper barking above, just thankful he was alive but didn't realize he was busying saving me. Somehow he had stop one of the few passing cars and had somehow convinced them to call the state trooper, and then convinced him I was down below in the darkness. He called rescue, all unknown to me at the time. Soon I saw lights, shining down but they couldn't find me. Then one threw a light and it slid down the slope and I was able to stop it with my unbroken arm. Then the whole crew came down. They got me to the top and the officer told me my dog saved me. I was prepped and put on what they called a fixed wing aircraft - didn't really see it. I was flown 300 miles to Swedish Hospital here in Denver. 107 broken bones, a collapsed lung. They said I had lost my complete blood volume and surviving on little pockets of blood. 3 weeks in a coma, 26 screws, 2 rods and 2 plates. Broken pelvis, back, neck, ribs, left ankle, left wrist. Sad, I never saw Pepper again. He'd been given away because no one told animal control that I survived, they didn't believe I could have. My recovery was amazing. But I still shed a tear every time I think of him.

My story isn't as crazy as yours. I just got kicked out of my home by my ex fiancee and she wouldn't give me time to find me and my heeler a place so she gave him away. His name was Winston and he was my only friend back then haha. Turned my world upside down when she got rid of him. He's a lot happier now without me though.

I had a blue healer and she was such a great dog, and amazingly tough! Someone's German Shepherd got testy with her, and she instantly knocked it off it's feet and onto its back. Then did the same thing to a great big Malamute totally shocking the owner. No matter how big the dog was she would try to push them down with her nose and assert dominance. Very loyal and protective. She would read my body language. I was jogging and 2 guys stepped out of the darkness suddenly and I took a step back momentarily. That was all it took. She jumped at them twice sending them back peddling and I could hear her teeth loudly snap each time, but she never bit them. Just backed them off. She could go from snarling at a threat to wagging her ass being friendly if I just said "say hi". She did 40 mile mountain bikes with me in Oregon, and rode ocean waves on the back of my kayak. Best dog ever and I will always miss her badly!

Farmer let his dog work before at the very end he took the shot. It appeared the coyotes had a den nearby that they would not abandon otherwise the dog would have run them off in the first encounter. Too many coyotes and they start hunting domestic livestock. Too few coyotes and the varmints like groundhogs, mice, rats, etc overrun the farmland. Balance is critical.

Unless you see one of those dogs in action for a full day you can't appriciate their cardio and endurance. It is off the charts, and it looks like it just ran these coyotes until they where totally exhausted. I have seen one that was only two year old, and had never seen a cow before. He ran right at about 20 cattle pipping at the heals and in 10 minutes had all 20 or so fully rounded up! This dog followed us on mountain bikes for probably 10 miles running in circles while a springer spaniel just following the springer was exhausted 3/4 of the trip and the heeler showed no slowing down at the end of the day.

My first healer and I got into a fight with two drug dealers and their two pit bulls. We won. These are amazing dogs. My current aussie is a real hoot. They are so loyal to family.

There's a scene in Mel Gibson's Road Warrior movie where his Blue jumps on top of a rock and stands off against a bad guy to protect the injured Road Warrior and he takes an arrow for him. Its an infuriating and sad scene but for anyone who's owned one, there's absolutely no doubt their Blue would do the same! At 70 I don't have the energy to own a Blue right now but when Snoop was alive we did everything together. She's 15 years gone and I still grieve.

While the coyotes continued to chase her, she ran across a road and under a passing car without getting ran over by the wheels. She then turned back and gave chase to the coyotes. Despite having serious injury to her legs from which she recovered, she has never failed to challenge the coyotes on our farm.

Had a blue healer. Max. Awesome dog. Us kids were on the porch one day playing and 2 pit bulls came towards the porch. Aggresdive. They were not planning to be nice. Within 2 seconds Max had one on his back by the throat and the other one ran off. As soon as we all got in the house max let the pit go and he ran away and didnt even think about stopping. In a million years he wouldnt have been able to outrun max. But max just came inside. Needless to say he got lots of pats on the back that day.

I have had the privilege to live on 40 acres bordering a small river in Northern Minnesota for the last 21 years......When I first moved to a rural setting, I was of the belief that all beings great and small deserve the chance for existence. I still feel that way. For the first 7 years or so, no predation problems. My ex and I kept a mixed flock of poultry: laying hens, meat chickens, ducks, turkeys, and geese. Then it happened: we had about 30 birds disappear in 3 days.....a fox was the culprit, and I liquidated him with two shots of #2 steels. That was the beginning. See right about then the fur market tanked overseas.....trapping became very expensive......you couldn't even cover the cost of fuel to justify putting out a line......Then we just couldn't keep livestock.....After the fox, came the coyotes....They would raise a litter of pups every year, and you could hear them every time they brought down a deer.....then the coyotes moved out, and the wolves came.....I came upon them killing a good sized, healthy whitetail buck in my backyard.....snarling, I could hear the ripping flesh....the big male leader, he charged me, and I missed....federally protected or not, all I could think about was my two boys being stalked as they walked the 1/4 mile to the school bus pickup......So....I had to leave off free ranging poultry. I just couldn't keep it around....I image that I have lost 200-300 birds from 2007 to 2015.....then I just gave up.....last year I raised 11 turkeys to butcher weight, but had to keep them completely enclosed. They weren't afforded the opportunity to free range and ate commercial pelleted feed....and tasted that way....Nature abhors a vacuum. The pack of wolves, that I mentioned earlier, made the mistake of taking out two yearling bulls from a neighboring cattle operation.....The federal trappers liquidated the whole pack. It took about a week for the coyotes to come back. And still I can't keep livestock. So, I have lost birds to coyotes, fishers, raccoons, feral & domestic cats, and dogs. The value of a good dog is priceless, and I can sure understand why that rancher took a shot...because that same pair of coyotes would smell the blood and placenta of a new born calf, and they gotta' eat......so does the rancher.....what I don't understand is why he didn't shoot them sooner?

Bell's a smart working dog. Those coyotes are trying to lure into the long grass so they get the advantage. She was smart enough not to fall for it and was waiting to see what her master wanted to do. You can almost see her asking "are you going to help or what ?". Heelers can be a handful when young but quickly become incredible and essential members of the family on any farm. They become a love story many have written books about. If they could do the dishes after their dinner they'd do that for you as well. Never had a dog with better animal management skills, with the smarts not to go overboard with aggression unless necessary. Your heeler is the very definition of man/womans best friend.
