Breeders and Puppies
Buying or adopting a sheltie puppy is a big step and requires planning.
It is important to make sure any sheltie puppy you might wish to purchase comes from an ANKC registered breeder that meets the breeder code of ethics.
Key questions to ask a breeder will be about health screening of the parents and puppies for hereditary conditions in shelties. Thankfully – shelties are a robust breed and these are generally few.
An ANKC breeder will also not sell you a puppy until at least 8 weeks of age and the puppy will come to you vaccinated, microchipped, health checked and wormed. The puppy should also come with information about diet and general care. The puppy should also be registered with DogsSA (the ANKC association in South Australia) and you should ask for your puppy's papers. These will generally be transferred into your name when you purchase your puppy.
Be prepared to wait for the right puppy.
