#4 On the other hand, the Shetland Sheepdog is open and enthusiastic about lots of activity and exercise.
He should be able to live out this play instinct and you should be prepared for numerous walks. Since the Sheltie basically has no hunting instinct, they should also be relaxed.
#5 The animals, which are considered intelligent, also like variety and challenging tasks.
However, dogs tend to be stubborn, which is why you shouldn't let them get away with everything from the start.
#6 Shetland Sheepdogs are very sociable animals and prefer to have you or their family around them all day.
Shelties also like to spend time with other dogs - but preferably with other dogs. In order for them to develop properly, contact with the latter at a young age is beneficial. More aggressive dogs tend to be avoided by Shelties because they are in a good mood!
