# 13 Are Shelties hard to house train?
Their intelligence and eagerness to please can make them easy to train. However, shelties can also be too smart for their own good and a little stubborn, so you might have to work a little harder to keep your own sheltie motivated and focused during his training.
# 14 What two breeds make a Sheltie?
Rather, the Sheltie is a descendant of small specimens of the Scottish Collie and the King Charles Spaniel.
# 15 Should Shelties be clipped?
These dogs need very little trimming, even for shows, but there are some things you can do to both make them look neater and to help them to be more comfortable. You may want to bathe your Shetland Sheepdog prior to trimming, but you can get excellent results without a bath, as long as your dog isn't very dirty.
