I have an 8 month male blue merle sheltie. I got him from Inga Paquin at Premina Shelties in Quebec. He is the most even tempered Sheltie I've ever had,I've had 3. The breeder was wonderful and supportive and still keeps in touch. My pups name is Quincy and he has 1 blue eye and 1 brown eye. He is super smart and just a pleasure in everyway. I also have a 13 1/2 year old female Keeshond. She is a sweet girl, my last sheltie, who died on Sept 3rd 2009, picked her to be his sister and it worked out well. The pup annoys Abigail,the Kees, but he's only a pup. I also have a Yellow Crowned Amazon Parrot and she plays with Quincy. Never a dull moment! I love it!
