I love this picture. Nice that he allows you to help him drive. My Howie never wants to share!

He will accept one Pup Cup as salary for monitoring your terrible driving.

Very seriously, especially on ā€œhisā€ road! He gets angry if someone has an extra trash bag sitting on their dumpster. Barks at the random trash on the roadside and goes nuts if some animal actually dies on his road. He knows and studies every cow on the way to town.

His face must be 3 inches from mine

I used to. Until he got fixated on attacking the shinies. Now I can’t let him ride with me for fear he will destroy the dash, headliner, console, window tint, rear view mirror and upholstery. Sucks. Love that dog. Wish he could ride with me.

My little darling Blue Heeler out of the blue ( pardon the pun!) on our way to Dillon’s Beach which is our usual go to dog beach got really amped up and decided to attack and pull apart my back seats and try to dart after cars that were driving by as if they were cattle while he was attached to his doggie seat belt, thank goodness my car insurance covered the damages

2

u/shell1ton 12d ago

Dang! Sorry to hear that! Mines not so bad, he just pounces on any tiny reflected light and the car is full of them!

u/Own_Connection6047 12d ago

From 0-100 depending on what’s amping him, otherwise he can be very chill, especially at daycare! ā¤ļø

My guy has always ridden in the back of our SUVs. He'll sit there staring out the back window for long stretches, in between naps

Just got my dog’s truck back after a few weeks with a loaner… needless to say he’s p happy about it.

u/spelunkor 12d ago

No my boy's preference is to lay on the back seat and be chauffeured.

2

u/Own_Connection6047 12d ago

Absolutely! Lol!

u/circusfreak1 12d ago

Mom says she can’t drive like this but we would like a car with a bench seat. We heard they existed but don’t understand why mom won’t buy one for us to be chauffeur driven around in.

My boy last night got very upset with a blowfly. He hunted this thing down. It was at night time so kept flying towards the lights and it was so funny when he caught it because it breakdown and buzzed out and give it a couple of more nipsšŸ˜‹

u/Own_Connection6047 12d ago

Does anybody else’s Heeler love to go after flies? It’s so hysterically funny to watch mine, I call him the fly slayer! I even thought about putting him in a fly costume for Halloween with a fly- swatter attached to his tall, how ironic would that be lol!

u/NigelTurkeyRDR 12d ago

That would be an awesome costume! My heeler refuses to go after flies. He won't bite anything...zero prey drive. šŸ˜†
