  • Overview

  • Contrary to popular belief, Shelties are not miniature Collies, but are their own unique breed. A fairly small breed (usually under 25lbs in adulthood), Shetland Sheepdogs are wonderful family pets. They are great with children and other animals, adore their people, and are very willing to obey and please their owners. They are extremely intelligent and quick to learn, and also tend to be fairly vocal. These gentle, playful pups are well-suited for active families.

Shetland Sheepdog

I had driven to ATL airport in 5:00pm traffic with a friend to pick up my new puppy. Unfortunately the flight was canceled and I did not know. I talked with a Cargo agent and she rescheduled for the next day but on an earlier flight, so I could pick my puppy up without fight the ATL traffic. About 30 minutes later I received a call from Puppy Spot advising the cancelation. I think better communication would have helped. I love ❤️ my puppy. Michelle Kennell
