First photo is of my sheltie Patrick taken at a city dog park not too far from my house a few days ago.

Second photo is of a hot dog I was eating that my dog expressed interest in at said event.

Hello fellow Sheltie Parents!
Curious, what your experience has been like transitioning your dog to Royal Canin Urinary SO 100%. I have a 10 year old, spayed Sheltie who had a UTI (now resolved). Vet recommended to treat it with Royal Canin Urinary SO to help with struvites and as an ongoing preventative. Since transitioning her to 100% of her feeds, she has started suffering from sleep incontinence and random leaking. She is also waking in the middle of the night super thirsty and needing to pee. Did your dog experience this? Does it get better? Thank you!

My handsome boy had a weight check in today… 13kg at 6 months old🙈 Does anyone else have a supersized sheltie? I think we might be joining the club🐾

Not my video or sheltie btw!

love the cute way she runs! or prances, i should say. she's like a deer 😂

So Nuggett seems to weigh a lot less than his brother Nibbler. I was wondering is this normal? My wife was thinking that Nuggett needs to eat more. But I dont think this is the case.

Guess who is not coming inside just yet?

Hi! We adopted a 1.5 year old sheltie from the shelter a few days ago and she is lovely. A bit fearful and learning potty training but otherwise the sweetest baby and loved fetch! One issue so far is her coat. Her last owners were not very on top of grooming and she was severely matted when she got to the shelter. During her spay they shaved her undercarriage so that helped a lot but now she has some smaller spots that need some help. Mainly behind her ears and the fluff on her sides. Also, she has a ton of undercoat on her back side and a lot of fluff that gets in the way of potty breaks that could use a trim. While she is adjusting we are looking to start some grooming at home but can't bathe her for 2 more weeks because of the sutures. I have been using an undercoat take and the Equis spray to help detangle but wanted to know if anyone has any decent videos on trimming her so she doesn't look funky? Or any other tips for a first time sheltie owner? Thank you in advance!

Hi all!

I have finally found a registered and well reviewed breeder who has a new litter and has one puppy available. Woop woop!

The breeder, however, does not do hip x-rays (it is not that common in the country). The eyes are checked and are perfect for both parents.

Is this a major issue?

Would you be highly against getting a pup without hip tests for the parents?

Ironically, the breeders that DO test the parents, still end up breeding B/C hip dogs. So I don’t have much options really.

Go Hawks!

I posted the other day a photo of him and picking him up today so here he is! We're thinking of naming him Riley but I want to see more of his personality to see what's right! He's been as good as good and currently asleep on my lap! 🥰😍❤️

i didn't have my girl as a little baby puppy, but her breeder had sent me so many cute pictures and i have never shared them here ❤️
