This breed was once known as the Shetland Collie, but after much confusion with Border Collies, the name was transformed to Shetland Sheepdog. This breed is known for its majestic figure and long fur, and its gentle and reserved personality. They are strong dogs with bounds of energy for play and herding of animals. Shelties are best raised in open land where they can run freely. They make for great family dogs and also perfect companions for older couples. They live to about 13 years of age and weigh anywhere from 15 to 30 lbs.

Dogs and their human companions are welcome all over Kentucky, from the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington to Dinosaur World in Cave City. Whether you’re in the Bluegrass State for business, pleasure, or because it’s your full-time home, you can rest assured there are plenty of fun ways to spend time there with your dog. Start with a popular dog park, such as the one at Highland Hills Park in Fort Thomas, and then get your own special treat at one of Kentucky’s canine-friendly pubs. This state is also home to the Bluegrass Classic and the Kentuckiana Cluster of Dog Shows!
