Pfeiffer had her pups on January 11th with 5 pups, only 2 males and 3 females-all blue and all are spoken for
you may reserve for her next litter like these folks did and have a better chance at getting one of her pups or pups from another female.

Foxy had her pups on the 5th of January: All are sold and didn't even have a chance to email the "list to notify" this time as they were all reserved. 5 reds and 2 blue pups.
 
Sarandon's last litter below (November, 2011): Expect her back in heat around late March for pups in May/June of 2012
 
...reserve now for Chloe/Aniston or Swift litters...Chloe and Swift should have blue and red pups and Aniston will have Blue pups. Red pups are $250 and Blue pups are $275
*Plane tickets to Mississippi and Arkansas were around $200 through American Airlines and fairly easy to arrange out of Fresno, CA.
-I will drive your pup to the Vet for the exam and to the Airport for you (45 minute drive for Airport/15 minutes to the Vet)
-a small kennel and feed/water dish is needed and I can get that at Petsmart for you
-a Veterinary exam is around $50 at Lone Oak Veterinary Clinic and they will take credit card over the phone
Females and their past litters:
Swift: had her pups on August 16th and had 8 puppies...all were red (bred to Swayze)
Swift (pregnant) with Swayze behind, Chloe on the right and Pfeiffer in upper left
Swift is medium in size...verrrry sweet and loving (loves kids and everyone's puppies), and very laid back
  
Swift should have pups in March, 2012
Aniston: had her pups on August 10th and had 11 puppies-due again March, 2012
 
Aniston is one of my taller females and goes camping, sticks close and loves to go.
 
 
Aniston taken 8-4-2011 and ready to pop
 
Aniston was bred to McConaughey and had 11 puppies!
Reserve now
Pfeiffer is a small blue female-she weighs about 27 pounds
This is Bingo...an all white pup from Pfeiffer's first litter.
See Bingo and pictures of him growing up
The white heeler is a rare color of heeler and Pfeiffer has now thrown one in each of her 3 litters but there is NO WAY TO KNOW WHICH PUP WILL BE WHITE, SINCE ALL PUPS ARE BORN WHITE..they get color at about 3-4 weeks of age.
Bingo had no color and the female from the last litter is reported to have gotten a hint of color around her ears and down her back.
If a solid white one is in the litter (usually known by 3-4 wks old), it will probably already belong to someone by the time we realize it is a white. If they are willing to take a white one, the pup is theirs...if the person would rather have a blue, they will move to the next blue pup available, in the next litter, whichever they prefer.
If a white pup becomes available to sell...I will notify those who have indicated they want a shot at a white one, reserved folks first, and then those who just emailed to indicate interest in a white one, and then notify everyone else on my list to find a home for the pup. It will be first come, first serve.
A white female from the 2nd litter.
She is all white with no spots and no apparent coloring at all at this point.
The red pup next to her in the pic below, has some red color. This pup ended up with a tad bit of red later...
 
  Pfeiffer's 3rd litter born January 11th, 2012...there appears to be one that is staying white in this litter too...the people who own this pup had requested a shot at a white one. They should name the pup "Lucky"...Bingo was also appropriate for the 1st one... :)
  
Foxy is a small dog so the pups will be smaller. She weighs about 28 pounds
Reserve for the next litter of reds...
   
Sarandon had 9 pups on 4-26-11 and 6 pups on 11-2-11.
She is always bred to McConaughey and has both red and blue pups
A pup of Sarandon's and one of Foxy's-all grown up and at home.
(most of Sarandon's blue pups end up blue with no tan which looks like a black heeler).
At about 10 days old:
 
I call this pup a chocolate heeler...no tan on paws or chest or face...just a black heeler that turned chocolate (a diluted black) ...2 in this litter.
Sarandon, had a brother this color and he was gorgeous!
She had a couple that are black heelers, one red, 2 chocolate and a couple of light speckled with some light tan on paws, etc. One appears to be white with some traces of black around ears. They are not quite 5 wks in this picture below. Colorful litter.
   
  
EMAIL if you are interested in reserving for a pup from one of the upcoming litters or specifically for a particular female
Reserving ahead gets you a pup quicker.
Chloe is a small red heeler, lots of energy...typical heeler. Chloe weighs 28 pounds
Chloe litter at birth Chloe litter at 1 week old Chloe litter at 3 wks old
    Chloe litter at 4 weeks old
 
Chloe litter at just over 5 weeks and almost ready to go home

We raise Blue and Red Queensland Heelers. Pick your litter, female or just specify the next available red or blue male or female pup and if you want the tail docked or left in tact. Tails are docked at 3 days old unless presold and specified to leave in tact.

Examples of the cross (of Jess and McConaughey) are in the picture below. These dogs are still young in the pic.

The price of Blue pups is $275 and Reds are $250. There is a $275 paypal button to purchase a Blue pup and a $250 paypal button to purchase a Red ...or you can mail a check to reserve as long as there is time for the check to reach me before they are born. To Reserve either a male or female pup via paypal, you can click here. Or email that you are sending a check and I will email you back when I have gotten your payment, either way.
Sarandon and her last litter of pups below: Sarandon, our light blue (with red in her coat) female bred to McConaughey. She had 2 Blue males that ended up black (no tan) and 3 Red females. We are assuming that with Sarandon's unusual color she must carry a red gene as she was only exposed to McConaughey and we expected these pups to all be blue. Reserve now if you want one of her pups from her next litter and specify in the notes section.
This is Sarandon This is McConaughey and Senseney (she is deceased now)
Pics of Sarandon's last litter below:  
Chocolate Queensland (Sarandon X McConaughey)
from Spring of 2011
Pics taken of Sarandon's litter on October 14th at about 2 and 1/2 wks old: Big pups!
Sarandon had 2 pups that were all blue... (what I call a black queensland with no tan or brown)
Sarandon's mother was a "black" heeler and her dad was red...and a brother in her litter was chocolate.
Sarandon is such an unusual color there is no telling what she will throw each time, but it is nice to know that she will throw this rare color of heeler, an all blue heeler with
no brown/ tan (black heeler) and also chocolate (kind of a diluted black color).
The picture below (of an Aniston pup) playing with it's new owner's heeler which is an example of the "black" heeler color...(I do not own this black heeler)

Our Females and their past litters:
Senseney: (Deceased now but not forgotten) Red female
This is Senseney, she was such a good mom, very athletic and energetic. Loved to fetch, and play catch with the kids with little pebbles, when no ball was available. Loved to catch squirrels and gophers and mice. She was very lean and stayed very active.
Senseney's first 2007 litter
  
Senseney's October 2007 litter-Lots of spots in this litter. Cash was the father, not McConaughey (McConaughey was just a pup).
The same pup... at 6 mos old. Happy at home...Her name is Dally...her ears are starting to stand up good.
This is a male from a Senseney litter in 2006 (Bandit, McConaughey's dad, was the father)
 
I almost kept this one, as she did this all the time...what a cutie!

A picture of him below just before his 3rd birthday in November of 2009. Just a tad chubby.
Here is McConaughey as a puppy himself...

McConaughey's Dad:
GRANDPA BANDIT
Proud Grandpa!
Bandit was sleeping and was accidentally run over in our driveway and had to be put down due to his injuries on Monday, October 16th, 2006.
I should thank Rick Tucker, DVM for going above and beyond to help me that day.
Bandit is greatly missed.
The Good News is...We were fortunate enough, to get McConaughey from a litter that Bandit fathered about 2 weeks before he died out of a really nice red female heeler.

How Could You?
|
| |
Below is a beautiful story about a puppy that was loved and a dog that was forgotten and where he ended up...If you have a moment it is pretty enlightening.
Dog ownership is a big responsibility.
HOW COULD YOU? - By Jim Willis, 2001
When I was a puppy, I entertained you with my antics and made you laugh. You called me your child, and despite a number of chewed shoes and a couple of murdered throw pillows, I became your best friend. Whenever I was "bad," you'd shake your finger at me and ask "How could you?" -- but then you'd relent and roll me over for a belly rub.
My housebreaking took a little longer than expected, because you were terribly busy, but we worked on that together. I remember those nights of nuzzling you in bed and listening to your confidences and secret dreams, and I believed that life could not be any more perfect. We went for long walks and runs in the park, car rides, stops for ice cream (I only got the cone because "ice cream is bad for dogs" you said), and I took long naps in the sun waiting for you to come home at the end of the day.
Gradually, you began spending more time at work and on your career, and more time searching for a human mate. I waited for you patiently, comforted you through heartbreaks and disappointments, never chided you about bad decisions, and romped with glee at your homecomings, and when you fell in love. She, now your wife, is not a "dog person" - - still I welcomed her into our home, tried to show her affection, and obeyed her. I was happy because you were happy.
Then the human babies came along and I shared your excitement. I was fascinated by their pinkness, how they smelled, and I wanted to mother them, too. Only she and you worried that I might hurt them, and I spent most of my time banished to another room, or to a dog crate. Oh, how I wanted to love them, but I became a "prisoner of love." As they began to grow, I became their friend. They clung to my fur and pulled themselves up on wobbly legs, poked fingers in my eyes, investigated my ears, and gave me kisses on my nose. I loved everything about them and their touch -- because your touch was now so infrequent -- and I would've defended them with my life if need be. I would sneak into their beds and listen to their worries and secret dreams, and together we waited for the sound of your car in the driveway.
There had been a time, when others asked you if you had a dog, that you produced a photo of me from your wallet and told them stories about me. These past few years, you just answered "yes" and changed the subject. I had gone from being "your dog" to "just a dog ," and you resented every expenditure on my behalf.
Now, you have a new career opportunity in another city, and you and they will be moving to an apartment that does not allow pets. You've made the right decision for your "family," but there was a time when I was your only family.
I was excited about the car ride until we arrived at the animal shelter. It smelled of dogs and cats, of fear, of hopelessness. You filled out the paperwork and said "I know you will find a good home for her." They shrugged and gave you a pained look. They understand the realities facing a middle-aged dog, even one with "papers." You had to pry your son's fingers loose from my collar as he screamed "No, Daddy! Please don't let them take my dog!" And I worried for him, and what lessons you had just taught him about friendship and loyalty, about love and responsibility, and about respect for all life. You gave me a good-bye pat on the head, avoided my eyes, and politely refused to take my collar and leash with you. You had a deadline to meet and now I have one, too. After you left, the two nice ladies said you probably knew about your upcoming move months ago and made no attempt to find me another good home. They shook their heads and asked, "How could you?"
They are as attentive to us here in the shelter as their busy schedules allow. They feed us, of course, but I lost my appetite days ago. At first, whenever anyone passed my pen, I rushed to the front, hoping it was you that you had changed your mind -- that this was all a bad dream... or I hoped it would at least be someone who cared, anyone who might save me.
When I realized I could not compete with the frolicking for attention of happy puppies, oblivious to their own fate, I retreated to a far corner and waited. I heard her footsteps as she came for me at the end of the day, and I padded along the aisle after her to a separate room. A blissfully quiet room. She placed me on the table and rubbed my ears, and told me not to worry. My heart pounded in anticipation of what was to come, but there was also a sense of relief. The prisoner of love had run out of days.
As is my nature, I was more concerned about her. The burden which she bears weighs heavily on her, and I know that, the same way I knew your every mood. She gently placed a tourniquet around my foreleg as a tear ran down her cheek. I licked her hand in the same way I used to comfort you so many years ago. She expertly slid the hypodermic needle into my vein. As I felt the sting and the cool liquid coursing through my body, I lay down sleepily, looked into her kind eyes and murmured, "How could you?"
Perhaps because she understood my dog speak, she said, "I'm so sorry." She hugged me, and hurriedly explained it was her job to make sure I went to a better place, where I wouldn't be ignored or abused or abandoned, or have to fend for myself -- a place of love and light so very different from this earthly place. And with my last bit of energy, I tried to convey to her with a thump of my tail that my "How could you?" was not directed at her. It was directed at you, My Beloved Master, I was thinking of you. I will think of you and wait for you forever. May everyone in your life continue to show you so much loyalty.
A Note from the Author: If "How Could You?" brought tears to your eyes as you read it, as it did to mine as I wrote it, it is because it is the composite story of the millions of formerly "owned" pets who die each year in American & Canadian animal shelters. Please use this to help educate, on your websites, in newsletters, on animal shelter and vet office bulletin boards. Tell the public that the decision to add a pet to the family is an important one for life, that animals deserve our love and sensible care, that finding another appropriate home for your animal is your responsibility and any local humane society or animal welfare league can offer you good advice, and that all life is precious. Please do your part to stop the killing, and prevent unwanted animals.
Remember...They love UNCONDITIONALLY.
