The Shetland Sheepdog (Sheltie), although resembling the

collie in miniature, was not bred down from the full size collie.

The sheltie is a small alert, rough-coated long hair working

dog with color ranging from golden to dark sable, black

or blue merle. He should stand between 13 and 16 inches

at the shoulder. The coat should be double: the outer coat

consisting of long, straight harsh hair; the under coat short,

furry and so dense as to give the entire coat its "stand off"

quality. The expression is alert, determined by medium,

dark almond shape eyes and high ear set that are naturally

tipped. The temperament of a sheltie is loyal,

gay and affectionate towards his owner.

The sheltie may be reserved towards strangers,

but he should not show fear or cringe around

strangers. The sheltie is not for everyone,

so please do your homework.

Research this breed. Contact breeders and ask

questions before you decide. Kyla Shelties is located in

Oneonta, Alabama. My goal is to breed to better the breed with

temperament and conformation my number one goal. All my

puppies are raised in the home not in a kennel with lots of

Tender Loving Care. I do screen all buyers and I ask a lot of

questions. Stud service is available to approved bitches only.

All information on this site has been gathered from

various books, etc. But most of the information was

gathered and given to me from good friends who helped

me on the subjects listed on this site.

There is a great deal of information on this wonderful

breed in books, magazines, and the world of the

internet. I suggest you find you a good, honest,

responsible breeder that is dedicated to the breed to

answer any questions you may have.

DO YOUR HOMEWORK--AS WITH ANY BREED, MAKE SURE THE

SHETLAND SHEEPDOG IS THE RIGHT BREED FOR YOU.
