Breed Standard
There are two main United States organizations that our breed is registered with (AKC & UKC). Please see the individual links for their standards of the breed, as there is slight variations in allowed vs faulted items. These links open in new windows.
European Standard: The Kennel Club (this is just "for fun" since European Shelties look very different from American or Canadian Shelties).
