my Red Healer has been a wonderful smart dog she's about 13 now.
We have had some brilliant Blue and Red Healers over my life. My mom had one for 14 years that favored her so much he was her shadow till he died. Once she was picking up some parts at a Truck Stop at I40 and Choctaw Rd years ago when a guy tried to steal from my mom, was talking **** to her while she was crossing the parking lot coming after her and her purse . Rex the Blue Healer rode on the back of the flat bed, she whistled and the guy was hauled off in an Ambulance. Rex ****** him up bad! When he would work the cattle chutes and work the roping chutes he would continually go back and forth to the Timing Box where my mom worked keeping times on the ropers he never would let her out of his sight. He was a remarkable dog. The Healers all would pick a family member and like em more than the others it seemed.
