About Shetland Sheepdogs
The Shetland Sheepdog, affectionately known as the Sheltie, hails from the Shetland Islands of Scotland, where it was bred to herd sheep and protect crops from livestock. The breed's compact size and agility made it ideal for working in the rugged terrain of the islands. Thought to be a descendant of small herding dogs from Scotland crossed with other breeds, such as the Border Collie and Icelandic Sheepdog, the Sheltie evolved into a distinct breed by the early 20th century. Its intelligence, loyalty, and beautiful coat soon gained worldwide admiration, making it a popular choice as a companion and show dog.
