Adopt a Sheltie
Find Shelties for adoption in our directory of rescues across the US, UK, and Canada. Please don't discount adopting an adult dog—they need our love too!
If you have your heart set on a puppy, see our directory of professional breeders who occasionally have Sheltie puppies for sale. Remember, never buy pet store puppies or use an online vendor who won't let you view their kennels—both fuel the inhumane puppy mill trade.
