RESCUE:Central Illinois Sheltie Rescue
BREED: Sheltie (Shetland Sheepdogs)

Breed Description:

IF there was such a thing as a "Miniature Collie", that would be a Sheltie. A Sheltie is actually a "Shetland Sheepdog" which is it's own breed. Shelties can range in size from 12 inches tall to 21 inches tall. The breed standard calls for Shelties to be 13-16 inches tall.....but many fall outside that range.
