sheltie sizes are pretty unpredictable ( think)...
When Milli was 12 weeks old must have been smaller than 12 inches. @ 16 weeks old she 13.5 inches tall. Now, at 18 months old shes about 19.5 inches tall at the shoulders. Shes a pretty big sheltie that gets mistaken for a Collie...
Well, Back in March 2012 Milli was 4 months old 12.5 inches tall and 12.5 pounds....
Now Milli is 14 months old and is maybe a bit over 19 inches tall ( at the shoulders) and weighs roughly 40 pounds.
shes a big healthy sheltie.
It shouldn't take a sheltie very long to pick up "leave it" in a controlled environment with treats... you should be able to teach leave it within a day using the video below..
I recommend you watch this video

I taught milli how to "leave it" when...
Milli doesnt care if we touch her paws but she doesnt like it when we take out the scissors...
Does your dog know how to "leave it"? Easy trick to teach to a sheltie..
What I do with milli is take out a treat or even just her dog food. I put the food on the ground and say "leave it"...
Great Article! Millie is exactly like CREAM! minus being attacked by other dogs in the past and Also I never Punished her for being aggressive to rude dogs. I would always just pull her away from the rude dogs.. Exactly what I suspected millie was going through! Millie does have low...
Sounds like a common trait some shelties share. I feel a bit better. Millie just doesnt want to and doesn't know how to play with other dogs. We've given her many many many many opportunities to play but she just wants to smell and then leave. She hates being chased, she has no interest in...
It's been a while since i last posted.

as the title reads, Millie is 8 months old and 18 inches at the withers ( i just measure with 2 rulers. It's not 100% accurate but gives an idea) and from what i can tell she's still growing!! To us ( my wife and I), Millie looks the same as she was 2 months ago. But to friends who visit...

YEah one eye is blue like a husky and the other one is dark brown with a a blue spot on the lower right side. We get alot of comments about how cool her eyes look =).

Well that picture is what her ears looked like 2 weeks ago ( which look normal to me) Nothing wrong in the picture!!! I know shelties have all kinds of ears.
However, I should take a picture of them now. Theres one ear thats lob sided / lazy all of a sudden. Was just wondering if 1...
