The Shetland Sheepdog (Sheltie like any other dog breed, does not fit every household. Shelties have many temperament traits, and certain of these are fairly universal to the breed. Shelties were bred and used in the harsh environment of the Scottish Shetland Islands to help shepherds with their sheep. Many of their traits made them perfect for this work. Its important to remember their roots when you think about their temperament. * Shelties do bark. They will let you know when something is not right, when theyre happy, when they play, and especially when they have something to say. However, some Shelties do not bark very much. * Shelties are reserved. Some people call this shy, but most Shelties prefer to get to know someone before getting close to them. * Shelties are extremely loyal to the people they know best. * Shelties are sound sensitive and sound reactive. They are always on duty. * Shelties may chase (herd) almost anything that moves. * Shelties are very smart and need to have their minds and bodies occupied.
