Say Hi!
This is how you will find me most nights, reading emails and messages from people like you, who inquire about my dogs. That's Speedy beside me and Tinkerbell (Stinkerbell) in my lap.

Welcome to JMS Mini Heelers, home of healthy, happy
Miniature Heelers/Cattle Dogs and a few AKC Australian Cattle
Dogs in the hill country of north Louisiana.
**PLEASE NOTE!! I prefer contact via email or Facebook
message, because it gives me a record of what was discussed.**
**For best results, please email miniheelers@sent.com or
message me from my Facebook page JMS Mini Heeler Puppies.
**My apologies for neglecting my web site for the past several months. I have been using Facebook as my primary outlet for reaching people, simply because it was easier to post there. The powers that be at Facebook are against the sale of puppies, so they have been throwing me in "Facebook jail" recently for posting puppy pictures. So that's fine. I will be using this page as my primary outlet for posting photos and info about my dogs and puppies. It's going to take some time to update everything, so keep checking back. Thank you.
***Check the "Adult Dogs For Sale" tab (under Puppies For Sale)
***Due to problems contacting people who have sent deposits, I am no longer taking deposits on unborn puppies. When a litter is 2 - 4 weeks old, I will take deposits on the number of viable puppies, and those with deposits will choose from that litter at a few weeks old. Email me at the address above, if you would like to be added to my puppy update email list.
***I am happy to announce that all of my breeding dogs have been tested for genetic diseases by Paw Print Genetics or Embark, and many of my puppies are tested before they leave. Using these test results and carefully choosing which dogs to mate insures you that your puppy from JMS Mini Heelers will never go blind from PLL or PRA, which are common genetic (inherited) diseases in the Australian Cattle Dog.*** I have had 4 tested by Embark, who reported that they are 100% Australian Cattle Dog. Those are Shelby (full sister to Smiley), Luke, Johnny, and Bug.
**I have been receiving requests for stud service from my males. I do not offer stud service to outside females. (With the exception of one local friend's dog.)
***JMS Bug In A Rug has her own Facebook page!! Check her out!***

Pictured below is little Speedy Gonzales. Speedy was probably the first born from Tia's litter, and being a first time mom, she did not notice that she had had him. I found him off to the side of the puppy room, still wet, and he was so cold that he was very stiff. It literally felt like I had taken him out of the refrigerator when I picked him up. I could not believe he was still alive....but he was probably only a breath or two away from death. I warmed him under my shirt for about an hour, and he "came to life". I believe Tia thought he was dead, because she refused to accept him. (She was an awesome mom to the others!) Therefore, I bottle fed Speedy since the day he was born. First, he was too tiny to take a bottle, so I fed him with a cosmetic sponge soaked in formula. This little guy will never be sold. He has my heart! Speedy is neutered. He is one of a kind!
