Lancashire Heeler

        The Lancashire Heeler is actually longer than he is tall!  He was originally used for heeling cattle, and he still can.  He loves  joining in games, and he has a sharp bark that sounds too loud for a small dog.  His coat is short, and it’s an unvaryingly tan and black.  Both dogs weigh the same amount, which is only 14 pounds.  They are short, with the male at 12 inches tall and the female at 10 inches.  They are affectionate and happy, they love children, and they adapt quickly to house life.
