History
The Shetland Sheepdog probably originated from collies brought to the Shetland Isles, off the coast of Scotland. These small shepherds were very gentle when herding the miniature stock. One of the top obedience competition breeds, the Sheltie is an extremely smart and willing worker. The Shetland Sheepdog was first recognized in England in 1909, and first registered in the United States in 1911. Because of his kindly disposition, the Sheltie has become one of today's most popular companion dogs. The breed also excels at competitive obedience and agility.
