FAQs

What are the main disadvantages of owning a Sheltie (Shetland Sheepdog)?

The main disadvantages of owning a Sheltie include excessive barking due to their herding background, which can be troublesome in close living spaces. They may exhibit herding instincts like nipping at heels and chasing moving objects, require regular and frequent grooming to manage their thick double coat, and can be prone to anxiety and separation stress when left alone. Additionally, Shelties need consistent mental and physical stimulation, and they tend to be clingy, wanting to stay close to their owners.

Are Shelties good family dogs?

Yes, Shelties make good family dogs as they are gentle, loyal, and affectionate. They bond strongly with their families and can do well with children, especially if their herding behaviors are managed properly to prevent nipping or chasing.

Are Shelties suitable as house dogs?

Shelties are well suited as house dogs, including living in apartments, provided they receive enough daily exercise and mental stimulation. Their smaller size and temperament make them good indoor companions when their needs for activity and engagement are met.

How much maintenance do Shelties require?

Shelties have moderate to high maintenance needs mainly due to their grooming requirements and mental stimulation. Their double coat needs brushing multiple times a week to prevent matting and control shedding, and they require ongoing training and mental engagement to thrive.
