When they are that cute, how do you not end up with a half dozen?
Congrats on the new pup!

Did´nt knew Shetland Sheepdog but that a lovely dog!

Mom had a Sheltie, that dog could run all day and all night

Back in the stone ages when I was still living with my parents we had a Pointer named Spike. The girl that lived next door loved dogs but her parents would not let her have one. She would come over and borrow Spike. We lived on base at Maxwell AFB in Alabama. She would hop on her bike and pedal around the base perimeter road and Spike would trot along side her. She would stop at one point at one of the golf courses and he would drink some water. They would get home, he had more water and took a nap for an hour and he was ready to go with her again. She said Spike became very protective of her on her outings. That dog was a running fool. He loved to run.

Did someone say TREATS?

He is definitely a herding dog. He ‘herds’ our 5 year old Bengal cat – who is very surprisingly extremely tolerant of him. He loves harassing her so we often have to step in. He also has daily mad fits where he runs around the perimeter of the room or yard at top speed with a low growl. I guess we’ll have to get him some sheep . . .

Shelties are essentially smaller, somewhat calmer versions of Border Collies that were bred for work in the Shetland Islands. They can be timid if you don’t socialize them frequently.

We are crate training him but benignly. He is essentially already house trained but not to the point that we can trust him yet & he has always successfully slept all night. A great pup so far.

Angel the bulldog sleeps with one eye open like her mom and dad did in Missouri!

Sleeping like a bat is also a little disconcerting.

A snake vs. dogs story with a very happy ending. Enjoy.

Nice, teamwork in a little dog on "danger noodle" action.

Glad it wasn't a real copperhead...

One of his rare playful moments. Wished he did this more often.

On occasion, we catch him tossing around his hedgehog(no, it's not a Ron Jeremy doll) around the house but stops if he knows your watching.
