    Hi, is this the place I should be with a sheltie mix or is it just for pure breed shelties ? My boy dodger is half pedigree sheltie half Staffordshire bull terrier ...... A very strange mix I no but I love him dearly I got him from a friend who had an accident litter she had 3 boys dodgers brothers come and visit sometimes :) dodger is very vocal, loves people but is a bit reserved with strange dogs but once he gets to know them he plays lovely he is now 8 years old and I've had him since a pup :)

    Welcome Dodgers mum. Dodger is certainly welcome here we have all sorts of Shelties and Sheltie mixes here - even a few ring ins that would like to be a sheltie

    I would love to see what a Sheltie x Staffie looks like, that is a really strange mix. Does he have the fur of a sheltie or the body of a Staffie? If you'd like to show us you can become a Premium member to embed a photo in your posts, or include a link to a photosharing site.

    He is lovely! I don't know how to evaluate how much Sheltie he is, but to my eye, his expression and face are very very Sheltie like, with maybe a bit more thickness than the typical Sheltie. More hair would definitely up the overall resemblance. But he is very beautiful the way he is.

    I'm definitely not good at this:no:

    I would say not much perhaps his nose :yes:

    But definitely much more beautiful than a Staffie :winkgrin:

    - but for me it means everything that you love him and he is extra lovely in my eyes with your sentence "A very strange mix I no but I love him dearly" :hugs
