Shetland Sheepdog - Sheltie woke in our home at
first time as substitution for Collie. When I was young girl, I had
wonderful Collie female elegant and very claver. I was with her on
police dressure and she was wonderful, outside always without a leash
on most frequent city streets.... Many years later, when me and my
family moved to a house with yard, I wished to have my little Collie
because now in my age and with my life (I am employed), I don't have
time for big dogs. I knew about Sheltie as small Collie and decided to
buy a couple. After some time, I realized how lucky I was to buy dogs
this rase, how splendid dogs they are! Beautiful and claver, playful
dogs with super temper. Buying my first Shelties was easy to decide and
hard to do. No breeders were in Serbia, beside one old man! At the end,
I bought from this man his last Sheltie couple - Bona Fortuna Blue Stony
River and Leonardo Da Vinci Blue Stony River. Bona was mated with
Leonardo at the same day when I went to take them. Unfortunatelly I got
Leonardo hurt in genital region, spent a lot of time and money with
my vet.... Leonardo was hurt with man's leg... Very hurt... So my first
Sheltie litter was Leonardo's last, he became sterile because of being
hurt so badly... Leonardo lived his life in our kennel and died in
peace. Maybe I could say he became sterile luckily for me, because I
had to use other males abroad and they were Russian breeded dogs with
excellent pedigrees.
Now I am still the only one
Sheltie breeder in Serbia. Sheltie was quite unknown raze here but we
are going on shows much and with first winnings in I FCI group they
became more known and I hope more popular. Because, these claver and
beautiful dogs deserve much more attention. At Serbian Club Dhow of
British Sheepdogs Club 28.03.2009. in Jagodina I received Diploma for
success in breeding and popularization Shetland Sheepdogs in Serbia.
Thanks to a Club for giving attention to my work.  My first successfull Sheltie,
my loved dall Balkanika Mali Zmaj who brought first success in shows to
our kennel died young accidentlly, before to give us her first
litter... I will never forget her, she was my dall and most loving dog
in kennel...
