There is a place on my way to work with a sign that says "Sheltie Puppies"....I was wondering what they looked like....soooooo cute!!!! Cuddly!!!!

They only get cuter as they grow. They don't look like shelties when they're tiny but they're nice and fluffy by the time you take them home at 8 weeks.



Not much luck so far at finding my next sheltie. Looks like it will be late summer before I can bring one home. It will work out; just wishing it would be sooner.

what happened with that litter you looked at on June 6?

It's sort of hard to explain but I just didn't get the right vibe from the people selling the puppies. They were friendly people and the puppies seemed healthy, but I felt like they were in a hurry for me to pick a puppy and leave. I can't make a decision like that quickly. It just felt odd.

I spoke to someone yesterday who was recommended by another sheltie person. She has 2 dogs expecting litters the same day, June 20. Plus the breeder who has Django's niece should be having puppies a few weeks after that. I was really hoping to have a puppy by summer but I guess I will wait.

Maybe I can puppy-proof the house in the meantime!

In the meantime, it is exhausting when you're the only guarding the house:

Oh we will, Autzen does pretty good....he can be a sissy if the dogs get too over zelous, but he;s pretty friendly for the most part....but she needs to learn they're just trying to play....lol Hopefully as she gets bigger she'll get better too...

Apologies if I've said this before, but Orbit looks like he should be wearing a Sherlock Holmes hat and donning a heavy English accent.

My god I miss dogs. Love our kitties! But there's nothing like dogs.

Try letting Autzen go in, and Have Pearl sit on the sidelines for a few minutes, and let her watch the interactions. Then you go in first, then her, and try keeping her on lead and walking the inside peremiter, on lead. Then take her to where you are sitting, or hanging out, and remove the lead. She will eventually start to pick up social skills. This is why we start socialization so early. :-) ( not that you're not, just agreeing that this is the perfect time to initiate it). Let us know how she does in future visits, and if you need help, you may always text! :-)
