The Sheltie or the Shetland Sheepdog, both apply to the same breed.
This little breed is orginally from the Shetland Islands, and like the Shetland Pony was bred small to survive on a far northern island.This breed is intelligent and tough, delicate in features, but a survivor.
The Sheltie is increasingly popular because of their small size and keen intelligence. They are also a very obedient breed with a great desire to please their owners. They are a gentle breed with children, and need to be handled gently in return.
The Sheltie has a gentle nature, wanting to please, therefore, he needs an owner who will handle him wisely and with lots of praise.
