Tiny, a black-and-white Australian cattle dog, has seemed calmer for the past two weeks, says Kathy Burkley, executive director of the Humane Society of Westmoreland County. Instead of jumping and barking in his kennel, the high-energy dog is using a new dog run near the shelter to exercise and burn off some of that extra vigor.
PRINCETON - Dogs don't normally wear headphones, but a puppy named Missy learned that they're required headgear whenever dogs board private planes that fly them to a new "leash" on life. Missy, now going by the name of Kalie, is what's called a heeler, a cattle dog that's about 8 weeks old. Those eight weeks of her young life have been difficult, but the homeless puppy's fortunes turned around when a passer-by found her in a roadway, picked her up and took her to the Mercer County Animal Shelter.
GASSAWAY - When Dr. Ross Young's 13-year-old Australian Blue Heeler, Si, appeared one afternoon at his cattle pen about a mile from his home in Braxton County, he couldn't believe it. Less than a month earlier, Si could barely walk. About four weeks after Si underwent a new stem cell procedure at the Central West Virginia Animal Hospital in Gassaway, the 52-pound dog was again running and chasing cattle on his home farm, relatively pain-free.

LAST WEEK'S featured rabbit, Trina, was adopted. Angel the Labrador mix (0926420) is still available. Cocoa (0927455), 9 months, is a playful spayed Basenji- Australian cattle dog mix. She loves to walk, run and chase tennis balls. She is still learning commands, but she is smart, learns quickly and is eager to please. She would be wonderful for an active family who hikes, and she gets along well with people and dogs. Her $130 adoption fee includes an exam, shots, 45 days of health insurance, a one-year license and a microchip.
It's a long, unlikely road from death row in a Louisiana dog pound to being one of the founding members of the local branch of Dog Scouts of America. Pawsom, a compact, blue Australian cattle dog with an alert face, traveled that road from imminent doom to an active, happy life with Nicole Schiro of Williamsville. But the trip wasn't free of twists and turns for either Pawsom or Schiro.
Kirk Torregrossa enjoyed the view of the ocean as he walked along Willard Beach while his cattle dog mix, Patch, greeted other dogs. Little did he know that they had ventured onto a battleground. Property owners, complaining about dog waste and unruly canines, want the city to limit when the animals can be on the beach.
Shannon Bilheimer and Frank Buckland crouch on the ground as Mr. Buckland's Australian cattle dog, Shiloh, leaps over their backs, sprinting after an orange disc flying through the air. After he catches the plastic disc, Shiloh jumps back over Ms. Bilheimer and Mr. Buckland, who toss more discs his way during a demonstration of their eye-catching routine.
Ralph had been an active cattle dog for most of his 10 years and a beloved family member. So when the veterinarian was stymied over how to treat his worsening lameness, the family took the only step left. After just five minutes of animal chiropractor Jody Barkley working on his pelvis, lower lumbar spine and sacrum, Ralph was running around again - "Not Super-Dog yet, but noticeably improved," the Skiatook chiropractor said.
