Health

  • As with all dogs, you should keep up with your  Heeler’s regular veterinary checkups to detect any health concerns early. Your vet can help you develop a care routine that will keep your dog healthy.  Heelers are prone to weight gain, and they have high energy levels. Make sure your Heeler gets two to three good, half-hour to hour-long walks per day with a few good, active play sessions and shorter walks mixed in.

    Check their ears for debris and pests daily and clean them as recommended by your vet. Trim your dog’s nails before they get too long — usually once or twice per month. They should not be clicking against the floor. Your groomer can help with this. You should brush their teeth as your vet recommends because dental issues are some of the most common problems vets see in dogs. Your veterinarian can instruct you on how to brush your dog’s teeth properly.

    Your main concern when it comes to your Heeler’s care is maintaining their eye health. The breed is prone to several eye conditions and issues, so be sure to monitor any change in your  Heeler’s eyes’ appearances. Check for discharge, redness, or any other irregularities routinely. Be sure to consult your vet if anything is out of the ordinary with your Heeler’s eyesight.
