Sheltese

Sheltese

The Sheltese is a bright, affectionate little companion with the elegant outline of a Shetland Sheepdog softened by the daintier, lighter frame of a Maltese. Expect a cheerful, people-oriented dog that learns quickly, enjoys being involved in family life, and can be a bit vocal when alerting to activity around the home.
