Hello all!

Hi all,

My name is Darren and Im seriously considering getting a pet thats crazier than me......... if thats possible! I grew up with Collies and Kelpies working sheep, so a Sheltie is naturally my first pick! Im here to pick your brains about this breed and whether theyre suitable for me.

Welcome to the forum!

Shelties are the best...though you'll find that we might be a bit biased here on the forum!

Many come with an off switch au contraire to Kelpies and Border collies ;D

Thats what I wanted to hear guys ! Im already 99% for getting one, my concern is it will be home alone for 9 hours every day, although when Im home it will probably wish I was at work! Anyway Ive posted the question elsewhere in the forum, so I look forward to your replies.

Welcome Darren! Agreed, Shelties are the bee's knees (lol from the Geico commerical here in the states). I'm sure the great people here w/ all of their experience can help you to make an informed decision. Of course, hoping you decide on a Sheltie and share your story.
