Duncan, Diary of a Shetland Sheepdog

Hello, everyone! I first posted here in August, looking for advice on how to acquire a Sheltie. Now, nearly ten months later, I finally have that little prince I've been waiting so long for.

His name is Duncan and he's around four years old. So far, he's been an absolute gentleman--with some minor nervous behavior, which comes as no surprise. I'm documenting everything on a new blog, which I invite you all to read:

All my best from Arizona,

Matt
 
Congratulations! Duncan is gorgeous! We adopted Flash at 6 1/2 years of age, and he too exhibited a lot of the apathetic behavior at first. He has been with us nearly two months now and is finally loosening up and enjoying life! Welcome back to the forum.
 
Welcome back! Wonderful that you finally got your furkid!

I look forward to enjoying your blog....I've just added it to my favourites....
 
Matt and Duncan, Welcome!

First let me thank you Matt for giving Duncan a new forever home.:biggrin2: I visited you Blog, tried to leave a comment there but it wouldn't take it because it's asking for another site reference. But I will follow his progress from here willingly. I'm so happy you found us and remembered to fill us in once you finally found your forever Sheltie. The way he stretches before he lyes down Kia sometimes will do the same thing but usually when she's talking back at you .:lol:
 
Welcome again! and a huge welcome to Duncan! He is handsome. So, he was a stray? I wonder what happened to his tail. I am sure he will warm up to you, it may take some time - who knows what he's been through. But now he is safe with someone who will love and care for him.
 
Congratulations on your beautiful sheltie!! Thanks for the pictures and video.
Welcome to you and Duncan!!
 
matta can I ask if Duncan came from Bill Ferrel's rescue?

He did.

I visited you Blog, tried to leave a comment there but it wouldn't take it because it's asking for another site reference.

Thanks for letting me know. I will see if I can change the setup.

EDIT: I altered the comments to allow "anyone" so please try again.

So, he was a stray? I wonder what happened to his tail.

I'm going to post something about his backstory soon, but short answers: Yes, he was found wandering. And we don't know what happened to his tail.




I appreciate all the warm thoughts!
