Shetland Sheepdog

The Shetland Sheepdog may look very similar to the Collie, but they are intellectually very different. Shetland Sheepdogs are actually more agile and intelligent than their counterpart. Sometimes people call them mini Collies, but they’re actually a completely different breed of dog! Shetland Sheepdogs are both strong and sharp bundled into a compact size. As a herding dog, they share many characteristics that other Shepherds and Collies have. This beautiful breed is extremely obedient and highly trainable. They were originally developed to withstand harsh climates of their native islands, hence the long-haired warm coat.
