Hello everyone!
My family and I just rescued a sheltie in New Hampshire. He is about 8 years old, named Charlie. He was actually taken from a puppy mill here in Maine last August. He then was sent to New Hampshire was placed in a foster home which adopted him. Then about a month or so ago, he was given back to the New Hampshire Sheltie Rescue for some reason. Then we adopted him on June 25, he returns back to Maine. He is a sweet boy, needs a lot of care, love and stability. He has made many strides being here.
We also have another sheltie that we have had since a puppy. She is 10 years old, named Princess. They have become really good friends over the past few weeks. It's amazing watching the two of them. Princess, has had cancer in her rear leg twice and the cancer is totally gone now. She has a hard time moving around. With Charlie, she moves around better, always wants to see whats happening. Charlie walks around with her, side by side.
Princess barks all the time
Charlie has not barked once. Everyone I have talked too said that he will bark when he feels comfortable. He is getting very comfortable. He has taken over the couch as everyone says. We are waiting for a tail wag, but not one wag yet.
When Charlie arrived he couldn't walk on a leash, scared and would freeze. Now, Princess and Charlie go for short walks together in the evening. They both know when it's time for the walk and look forward to the walk.
We are very happy with both are shelties, they are fun to have around. They each have their own personalities and are loved so much.

I'm sure the previous owner must of had a reason. But now he is in a forever home. Enjoy your new home Charlie!
Where in Maine do you live? I live in Landaff, NH. It's a small town just north west of Franconia Notch.
