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.

Michigan is a fun place to own a dog, thanks to all kinds of dog-friendly eateries, hotels, businesses and leisure spots. Go hiking, take a tour, get something to eat and go camping together with your dog—and bring family and friends too, if you want. Dog lovers in Michigan prefer Labrador Retrievers, German Shepherds and Golden Retrievers over most other breeds, but there’s plenty of variety in the state’s more than 2 million pet dogs. About 35 percent of households in this state have at least one dog, compared with 31 percent who have at least one cat.
