A deer's best friend is a blue heeler

The blue heeler is lying in the grass among scattered leaves when Scar, a white-tailed deer, lowers his head and starts to lick. more

The dog stays put and seems to like the attention. Scar is the Harris family's deer, as much as a deer can be anyone's, and he and their cattle dog have become best buds.

Scar lowers his head to the heeler in the leaves, and the dog is in no hurry to move.

The people get their turn with him too. The man of the family gives Scar a good pet, and the deer takes it calmly, gentle as can be. Then one of the kids gets in on the act and hams it up, and Scar doesn't seem to mind having the child around.

That's not how deer usually behave. Most run off the moment they see a person coming, and most people will tell you it is a bad idea to go near a wild one. Scar was raised in the wild and still lives outside, yet he seems to enjoy every visit with the family.

Back in the leaves, the blue heeler is still happy to let Scar fuss. The deer is plainly taken with this dog, and the dog doesn't mind one bit. Scar has good taste in dogs.
