The Shetland Sheepdog is from the Shetland Islands. It did herding.
Shetland Sheepdogs are 12-15 inches tall. They can come in sable, tricolor, black with white or tan, and blue merle. They are sensitive, easy to train, shy, and alert. They are good watchdogs and need a lot of exercise.
Problems Shetland Sheepdogs can get are progressive retinal atorphy, cataracts, skin and liver problems, and they can be deaf. Other things to watch out for is their barking, and their sensitiveness.
Shetland Sheepdogs can do well in an apartment or a home but will need lots of exercise like as it’s said above.
