[b]Shetland Sheepdog:[/b] Faithful, supremely intelligent, and with great beauty, the "Sheltie" as he is affectionately called, originated in the Shetland Islands off the north coast of Scotland. The dwarfing effect of rigorous climate, rugged conditions, limited feed, etc. have over the years produced pint-sized ponies, miniature sheep, and now diminutive dogs. The Shetland Sheepdog has a very obedient nature and is supremely easy to train, and eager to please. His devoted, docile nature, and keen all-but-human intelligence and understanding, makes him a companion dog par excellence for adults and gentle children. He is an outstanding subject for obedience training. Somewhat reserved with strangers, the Shetland Sheepdog is intensely loyal, affectionate and responsive with his own people. He has a strongly defined sense of boundary, and makes a good little watchdog. The Sheltie's luxuriant jacket, characterised by its abundant mane and frill, is his crowning glory. A double coat, consisting of long straight harsh hair over a short dense furry undercoat, it requires regular attention to keep it in good order. Average height: Male: 13-15 inches Female: 12-14 inches. Weight: Male:14-18 lbs Female: 12-16 lbs. Life expentancy: 12-15 years The only drawback to having a sheltie....you can never have just one!!!!!

Wow, very beautiful coat sky!

I voted, I voted!!!!

Beautiful story, behle.

She is a beautie!

That pic really got to me too, Daisysmom. :cry:

Oh wow. :o That poor baby......I don't use Tide, but I do keep any kind of laundry detergent up off the floor away from my girls. What a shame..... :cry:

:rofl: Too cute......

You are so right, Rowie!! Squeaky clean.... :)

ellie, you crack me up.... :lol: :lol:

We use both. If we are taking the dogs to a dog park or the vet, I use the regular leash to have better control. When we walk them around the neighborhood, we use the retractable. I think if I had to choose though, I would go with the regular leash.

That's hilarious...Licky does the SAME thing!!! :lol: :lol:

Licky is the first dog I've had that I actually heard fart!!!! It is hilarious!!!!!!!! :lol:

Oh angel I would have loved to have chatted with you. :( Hopefully sometime tomorrow we can chat. :)

:lol: :lol: Too cute, angel!!!

Wow, that is kinda weird. But I LOVE that smile! What a cutie.....

(hugs) We are all here for you. If you feel like just rambling, crying, laughing....anything at all. I'm sure everything will work out. I will keep Rowie and you in my prayers as well.
