I began construction of this page 12-01-2007.  Photo taken from "The Book of the Shetland Sheepdog" the copy rite date is 1984. 

Picture is of Starhaven's Summer Symphony and her "deer friend"  From Starhaven Kennels.  Couldn't resist putting in this picture.

Tooo adorable to not share.  more to follow.

This article was taken from Guide to Owning a Shetland Sheepdog by Scott Credido. 

Don't know if you can read this but it was some info from the vet office in Belfare Washington.  There is more but mostly interesting to breeders. 

I am sure you can't read the caption so here it is:  You look at me with eyes of love; You never hold a grudge... You think I'm far too wonderful to Criticize or judge!! 

Does anyone see the date on this poloriad?  1958 when I graduated from High School.  Pictered is Shagg my first Sheltie, much loved, really smart.  He was a delight to a young girl. 

I STARTED RAISING SHELTIES IN 1980 WHEN MY DAUGHTERS WERE TEENAGERS.  THEY ASSISTED IN THE WHELPING, CLEANING AND SELLING PUPPIES.  OUR HERD SIRE WAS A LITTLE GUY LOVEINGLY NAMED PAL.  I HAD A COUPLE OF MAGOR SURGERIES DURING THAT TIME AND PAL WOULD LAY BY MY BED ON GUARD ALL DAY WHILE I RECOUPERATED.  WHEN I BROKE UP WITH MY HUSBAND I SEARCHED FOR A SAFE PLACE TO BRING PAL IN HIS OLD AGE AND FOUND THE FARM IN PORT ORCHARD FOR SALE.  IT WAS FENCED AND SECURE.  HE SPENT HIS RETIREMENT THERE TILL ABOUT 15 YEARS OLD. 

PAL WAS THE LAST OF THOSE DOGS . TOM AND I WERE MARRIED IN 1995 AND BEGAN LOOKING FOR SHELTIES ON THE WEB.  WE BOUGHT IN 2004 HOLLY FROM OHIO, BELLA FROM OREGON, PUMPKIN LOCALLY AND SENT FOR DANIEL AND SHEBA AND COOPER FROM TEXAS.  THEN PURCHASED OUR PURE FOR SABLE LITTLE MALE CAPPY FROM OKLAHOMA.  SO THERE IS NO INBREEDING IN MY DOGS. 

TOM PASSED AWAY FROM A HEART ATTACK 2006, SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED SASSY A PETITE BLUE MEREL FROM OHIO ... I REMARRIED JUST RECENTLY TO KEN MOYER IN SEABECK.  HE ALSO LOVES THE DOGS AND PUTS UP WITH A LOT FROM THEM.  IF YOU CAN IMAGINE AT LEAST 8 DOGS IN THE HOUSE AT A TIME!! 

SHELTIES ARE MY LOVE, MY LIFE AND ALWAYS WILL BE .  I AM 69 YEARS OLD AND KEEPING UP WITH MY DOGS IS KEEPING ME YOUNG.
