Yes, that is an infamous sheltie trait!
It can be very cute...but I'd recommend making sure you can put a stop to it, if you want. It can turn into nipping heels and that can be bad if there are little kids around. By the way, I LOVE your sheltie's name! I'm a huge HP fan, and assume it came from there?

I love when they herd. It is so cute, but yes, you have got to be able to stop it when you want him to.

Bailey used to run around me in a circle and nip my ankles as she ran by. I nipped it in the butt (pun intended
 ) when she was 3 months old. Sure it was cute, but it wouldn't have been so cute when she had all her adult teeth.

Sca got cured of biting but 'bumps' into me, that is allowed. Occasionally he will jump on my legs or swat at me and that gets corrected. He does herd his buddy Rascal the long haired Dashhound. I mean circle it, bark at it, nip at it; either it is cured or repeat.... I think it is in the Sheltie handbook

Just be careful. I was trying to ignore Ainsley's herding behavior one day when she was nipping at my heels. She managed to grab the back of my shoe and I took a nasty spill in the kitchen, managing to hit both my shoulder and my hip on the cupboard. Lots of nasty bruises, but fortunately, no broken bones.
I guess what I am saying is watch what kind of behavior you encourage. What might be cute in a puppy isn't necessarily as cute when they get bigger.
