Lady Bug, the Dog of the Day
Name: Lady Bug
Age: One year old
Gender: Female Breed: Husky, Australian Heeler mix
Home: Franklin Park, New Jersey, USA
 
   Meet Lady-Bug! This picture was taken when she was about nine weeks old. As you can see, from day one, she has always bitten off more than she can chew! Her brother Whiz-Bang, a former D.O.D, was set straight the minute she arrived on the scene. As a way of introducing herself, she walked over to him, took his toy and walked away. Since then, he has spent his time following his queen around! At the local dog park, much of the same rules apply. Lady-Bug spends most of her time doing just what Heelers do: herd. To see her run a pack in circles until they are eventually grouped like cattle is a sight to behold! Yes, this 35-pound ball of fire can hold her own with the best of them. Even still, she loves nothing more than to sleep closely flanked by her big brother Whiz-Bang! I know it's all an act. Truth is, he really runs the show! (Or is that just another wishful thought for my boy!) Either way, we love her!
