Hi Steem people and pets,
My name is Rocket, and I am an Australian Cattle Dog. Most people know my breed as a Blue Heeler. There are also Red Heelers too, and they are the same breed as me, only with different colors.
I was born on July 1, 2019 in Robeline, LA, USA. I came from a breeder named Ammons CowDogs. http://www.ammonscowdogs.com/index.html
They are a very good place to get a dog like me if you are interested. My brother who was born in the same litter is still there and looking for a home. Just remember, we are a very active and smart breed. If you get a dog like me, you will have to keep him very active and challenge him, otherwise he will get really bored.
When I get bored I like to chew on everything! My dad doesn't get mad at me though, he knows I just want to get out to run and play.
I flew to North Dakota on September 3, 2018 to meet my new Dad. You can see how small I was when I took my journey:
I only weighed 5.5lbs!! After my new Dad picked me up, we hit the road.
Even though I am not even four months old yet, I have been in North and South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, and Texas.
My favorite two states so far have been Colorado and Utah because I got to go 4x4ing with my new Dad. You would think that it would be stressful all that bouncing around, but all the movement actually makes me want to sleep. I love riding in vehicles, especially in the Jeep!
This is me on the lookout in Colorado! My Dad drives some pretty crazy places!!
We probably won't be able to go on any more offroad trips until the spring. I think we will be in North Dakota most of the winter, and all the trails near here will soon be covered in snow. (I can't wait to see snow for the first time!! Dad promised to get lots of pics when I do.)
Today we are going for a bike ride to enjoy what is left of the nice weather. We ride everyday to keep me fit and healthy. Well Dad says it is to keep ME fit, but he is the one with the belly!!
Anyway, here are a couple more pictures before I go:
This one is walking in the rain in Colorado.
And this one is me at home in North Dakota!
I look forward to telling you all about my travels and adventures, and I will write again soon!!
