Strange dog

[Karen]

Oh, thanks for answering the questions. Yes, her behavior fits with the Shelties I have known very well. I wouldn't worry about her being bored - she's probably just 'content" if all her "sheep' - yes, that's you - are in their spots. A skritch or two now and then, and she'll be happy. One of the Shelties I knew never even understood he was a dog - when other dogs tried to play with him, he'd just try to "herd" them into a corner. It never went well!

Okay, I'm glad to know that's pretty normal behavior then. I've never owned shelties, so I know it was common behavior. I was afraid she was just weird.

Outdoors, she makes it very clear she's a herder. She sometimes tries to herd the cats. xD Its hilarious to watch, especially if she wants to herd several at once.
