    Good Points: These are such loyal loving dogs, and great with children. Easy to train, very intelligent.


    Bad Points: Barking Barking Barking, and chasing quads and cars


    General comments: They are a great pet, you must never allow barking and chasing or it totally gets out of hand (I know from experience!) But, such a wonderful friend that its ok!

    I did notice someone mentioning Shetland Sheepdog nip and don't mix with children and don't like sudden movements?! They are a sheep dog they shouldn't be nervous of sudden movements otherwise they couldn't work with sheep! So this is obviously a training issue as is the nipping most likely as it is highly unusual.
    They make great pets because of their size and amiable temperament, they can be noisy sometimes and do need reasonable exercise (a walk round the block 2x a day will not cut it).
    But ...

    We had sheltie 20 years ago which was brought up with our 2 children and fitted this combination was a joy to see. She went everywhere with us and was always so happy to be near us. We now have a 10 month old Sheltie pup, who adores being with our young grandchildren, and also loves people in general and other dogs. She is tremendously interested in everything around her and is a joy to watch when we are out and about. Her main aim in life is to please us. If you have plenty of time and lov ...

    I love my two tricolour Shetland Sheepdogs, and I wouldn't swap them for the world. They are a beautiful, intelligent, easily trained, full of their own individual characters and a true pleasure to own. They need an average amount of exercise, as they are not as energetic as larger Collies, and their coat needs to be looked after to prevent knots, so getting them used to being groomed as puppies is a must, as you will be spending extra time at moulting on the coat. My two love the mud and not th ...

    They can nip and bite, and they don't like sudden movements, so Shelties and children are not a good mix. They usually don't like getting muddy paws. However, one of mine grew up with a Golden Retriever, and so occasionally comes back with a bit of mud round the edges, but not a lot. Their long coat requires thorough brushing. A lovely dog.
    (Not sure how you can vote on value for money??? but my dogs were the best purchase ever, so 10/10. They make me so happy).

    Shetland Sheepdog - I've had 2 Shelties they both were the sweetest, funniest dogs ever. if you are considering getting one then do. Sadly our 1st died of epilepsy, but the breed isn't generally succeptible to that disease.
