Just returned from a 2 week 25th Anniversary trip to Europe where I had great difficulty accessing Sheltie Nation. My husband accused me of experiencing “withdrawal” symptoms – and needing a Sheltie “fix” (evidenced by much viewing of “Amanda” photos – there may have been “cooing” noises involved – and a “Skype” session which was very perplexing for her!). Seeing this pic of darling Ariel with her “fancy footwork” made my day. Guess I can’t do without my daily-dose of pretty Sheltie babies on the Nation;)
goodness you were in withdrawals! Years ago i worked at an animal hosp. & a childless couple had a Siamese cat. They would go to the Caribbean to scuba dive annually. They called long-distance almost every day, we had to hold the phone to the cage. I also had to hand feed her deli turkey, while ‘whispering sweet nothings’ to her. I bet they love Skype now!
Happy anniversary BTW!
Sounds a lot like us Jo! Actually, we go to great-length to make certain Amanda needn’t be kennelled. Since our son went away to college – and decided he prefers his own more “rugged” vacation destinations (Mom doesn’t “Spelunk”!) – we’ve been able to arrange our vacations so that he can look after “baby sister”;)
Ariel is one of the prettiest Sheltie’s I’ve seen in awhile. Her markings are so unusual, like Kimberly (above), I’m not quite sure what color she is, but still a beauty to look at.

Ariel is beautiful! Is she a sable merle? Holly, my 5 month old, seems to have very similar markings. Enjoy your weekend! Kimberly

Hi, yes she is a sable merle!
