Thank you all! I am not "fair & balanced" - I think Baker is kinda cute.
My bi-blue Trace was my first Sheltie ever & make me absolutely fall in love with this quirky little breed. I didn't even realize bi-blue existed until I started searching for a blue merle.
When Trace left this world way too early, and after the tears slowed a bit & we decided to get a new puppy there was no question it would be a Sheltie. As much as I LOVE bi-blues, I knew it would be too hard to get another one this soon, so I went in search of a sable. I wanted the big white collar, the perfect white blaze...and then little "plain faced" Baker chose me to be his.
I have no idea what this little stinker will look like when he's all grown up, but it doesn't matter. He stole my heart the day he ran up to me & kissed my finger...he makes my heart melt every time I look at him - even when he is being naughty & biting on big bro Toby!
