I will get some and post them as soon as I get her home, and maybe even tomorrow when I go to volunteer (I'd actually be bringing her home then except I have a commitment that will keep me overnight this weekend, so not ideal for a new dog!). I'll be taking her out and I'll try to snap a few pics.
I'm still figuring out potential names so I'll likely post a pic and ask opinions.

I won't tell you what I'm thinking yet, though, so as not to bias anything. After all, even if she goes back to the shelter, she'll need a good name for her new life.

I'll send you a PM shortly.

Definitely. That's one of the reasons I love heelers...they're bred for a similar climate to where I live--arid, extremely hot during the summer, but cold winters and downright frigid temperatures and heavy winter storms at higher elevations--and they're very well suited to it. I've actually also been eyeing a Husky mix who has unfortunately been in the shelter for a long time due to her temperament (which I love, and is well-suited to SAR, just too intense for most pet homes), but her trouble with the heat has prevented me from moving on her yet.
