Sheltie Links

The members of WASSA have suggested the following links to help educate the sheltie owner about all aspects of owning this wonderful breed.  These websites are strictly for educational purposes, and are sites that our own members have found useful.  These are intended to be general guidelines only, that we hope will enhance your experience of having a sheltie as a member of your family.  

WASSA itself does not suggest or endorse any particular medical links, training methods or corporation, etc. nor are we responsible for any information or advice contained therein.

The breeder links below to WASSA members are intended as a courtesy only.

Canada's Guide to Dogs

Canada's Guide To Dogs
provides information and links about common Sheltie health concerns, including eye and bleeding disorders and hip problems.

Vaccination Protocols

Dr. W. Jean Dodds is an internationally recognized authority on vaccination protocols in dogs. This link is provided for information only and should be used in consultation with your own veterinarian. 

http://offa.org/surveys/survey_sheltie.html

This site offers a health survey for all AKC breeds, and for shelties as chosen for the above URL.  It is interesting to read the results so far, and to contribute your shelties  health records if you wish to take the anonymous survey.

Control Unleashed

Leslie McDevitt, MLA, CDBC, CPDT is a Certified Dog Behaviour Consultant through the International Association of Animal Behaviour Consultants and a Certified Professional Dog Trainer through the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers.

Her Control Unleashed® program is designed to help "dogs with issues" learn how to relax, focus, and work off-leash reliably in either stimulating or stressful situations.  It is great for dogs that are uncomfortable or unable to work off lead around other dogs, or dogs that are easily distracted and have difficulty concentrating or are reactive or easily aroused, anxious or stressed, and for those dogs that are unable to control their impulses when excited. 

The Dog Whisperer

Cesar Milan has been called a Dr. Phil for dogs, and for good reason. Cesar's amazing rehabilitations of aggressive, scared, lazy, compulsive, and jealous dogs captured the national spotlight when his National Geographic Channel (NGC) series Dog Whisperer premiered in September 2004. Regular viewers soon came to realize it wasn't the dogs but the quirky owners who needed Cesar's help the most.

Great Pets

GreatPets.com and My Smart Puppy is a user-friendly resource of puppy and dog training information. Brian Kilcommons and Sarah Wilson have been training dogs for over 50 years combined. 

Brian specializes in training difficult and aggressive dogs.  Sarah focuses on shy dogs and puppies.  They have written seven books together, produced DVD's, done over 100 clips for Comcast on Demand on dog training, problem solving, safety, travel and more! Articles on housebreaking, mouthing, chewing, jumping up, pulling on lead, aggression and much more all written in easy-to-understand, easy-to-apply formats.

Dog Star Daily!
