On Friday I got several emails from friends notifying me that West Jordan Animal Control had a Sheltie. I called and Marie Lister, angel that she is, ended up bringing this Sheltie to us — she was on her way to our house anyway and what’s a little detour (including getting lost) to get [...]

Wednesday, little Violet went to Salt Lake Spay and Neuter to get spayed. I had a little difficulty taking her because it seemed like I was playing a trick on her…spending the days since she came to us getting her to trust me and then taking her for a big procedure like this.
On the [...]

OK, we knew that it wasn’t going to be easy when Sheltie Rescue of Utah incorporated. After all, there are corporate-type responsibilities about which we really know rather little, but we figured we’re pretty smart people (hmmm…shouldn’t running a rescue have been the first sign that we’re not so smart after all?) and could figure [...]

Hampton is an older Sheltie boy who was acquired by his owners as a puppy, before they had any children. They spent a lot of time with Hampton teaching him lots of tricks including counting from 1 to 10. They demonstrated some of these tricks last night when we went to their home [...]

No, it’s not as bad as the title of this post sounds. At least we don’t believe it’s that bad.
A long time ago, we signed up with a couple of services that would pay us to write blog posts about particular advertisers. In return we made a few bucks (ranging from a dollar or so [...]

Coming in from Idaho on February 18th are two 5 year old sisters who are snapping at a 20 month old and 4 month old two-legged babies. We rarely get such cute photos of the Shelties coming here in advance of their arrival, but here they are. These two are so happy in [...]

Oh, happy day! We recently got a phone call from a senior-ish couple down in St. George, UT, who had adopted another Sheltie, Lizzie, from us several years ago. We knew that these people were special, because Lizzie was very fearful, was a bit of a biter, and had known health problems. In spite of [...]
