Shetland Heeler

The Shetland Heeler is an alert, athletic, and highly intelligent companion with the keen herding instincts of both parent breeds. Usually affectionate and people-oriented, this mix tends to be happiest with an active family that can provide daily exercise, training, and a job to do. Expect a bright, watchful dog that bonds closely, learns quickly, and may be a little vocal when excited or on guard.
