Sapphire sure is a pretty shetland sheepdog. I've always loved them, because I use to have a collie too. She looks so sweet. I bet she is treated like a little princess!

All I can say is WOW. Sapphire, you have to be one of the most beautiful dogs I've ever seen. I've always loved Shelties, but I didn't know they can come in Blue Merle. You sound like a wonderful dog to own, very loving and active. Congrats on being the DOTD, pretty girl.

A true beauty you are for sure, sweetheart!! No wonder your family is so proud of you. We think your name is extra special and so fitting for a blue merle girl like yourself. We would love to see some of your antics, cutie pie. You sound like an all around good pal and love bug. Please have your loving human give you big kisses from us today(some for Mel too

Oh, Sapphire, you are are a stunning, exquisite beauty! What a lovely friend you are to Mel. No wonder you are uber special: raised in a home with five cats, meeow -- we approve! Since your have kitty traits we wonder: do you help your Momma make the bed the way we felines do? You know, getting tangled in the sheets and often posing as a pillow under the bedding ...

Our KatMa loves the colour of your eyes which remind her so much of her late sister who had eyes so blue that people would take a second look, and then ask her if she was wearing sapphire-coloured contact lenses. Our KatMa would love to gaze into your eyes and get lost in your beauty.

Live long & prosper, dear Sapphire, always loved and cherished which is what ever pet deserves. It was a great pleasure meeting you today.

Purrrs from me, Norman & my baby brother Felix; 100,000 kisses from our purr~ents.
