Description
Dog Breed: Sheep Dog. 3 shelties still available- The shelties were rescued from a hoarding situation involving multiple breeds and litters. We were informed that they are expected to be on the smaller side and will not exceed 20 lbs as adults. All of them are very friendly and playful. While some may be a little shy at first, they love to cuddle in your lap once you pick them up. These dogs are sweet, affectionate, and gentle. Shelties are also known for their incredible work ethic; they excel in agility, obedience, and herding competitions. In addition to their hardworking nature, they are playful, loyal, and enjoy spending time with their human families. **Adoption Requirements:** A fenced backyard is preferred, but we will consider an unfenced yard on a case-by-case basis if your condo or HOA does not allow fencing. Shelties are herding dogs, which is why a fenced yard is crucial for their safety. A Sheltie should never be allowed to roam free; when not in a fenced area, it must always be on a leash. Unfortunately, some Shelties may also try to herd cars, which is why a fenced yard or leash is crucial for their safety. - Someone who is home more during the day and has time for a puppy. No crates—use a tall puppy pen or a baby gate to close off a room when you're not home. - Children in the household must be age 8 or older. - We will consider homes with no dogs or up to one small dog (no multi-dog households). A meet and greet may be required. **Included with Adoption Fee:** Vaccinations are up to date, dewormed, started on flea, heartworm preventions, spayed/neutered and microchipped.

Breed overview

Overview:
A mongrel, mutt, or mixed-breed dog, is a dog that is not the result of breeding within an existing breed or to modify or create a breed and belongs to no breed. In the United States, the term "mixed-breed" is a favored synonym over "mongrel" among many who wish to avoid negative connotations associated with the latter term. The implication that such dogs must be a mix of defined breeds may stem from an inverted understanding of the origins of dog breeds. Pure breeds have been, for the most part, artificially created from random-bred populations by human selective breeding with the purpose of enhancing desired physical, behavioral, or temperamental characteristics. Dogs that are not purebred are not necessarily a mix of such defined breeds. Therefore, among experts and fans of such dogs, "Mongrel" is still the preferred term.
