I was going to post this on the adoption listing section, but I wasnt able to so I dont know where else to put this but here..

Anyway, does anyone know of a good place to look at listings for available shelties ? I tried pet finder.. and although it works sometimes, alot of the time it is REALLY irritating and doesnt work..

Does anyone know of any breeders that may also take in rescues? I try and check the humane societies and the ontario based rescues mostly.. but want to know if im missing anyone..

Thanks

If you feel like driving, the SPCA Monteregie has shelties available for adoption. www.spcamonteregie.com. NOT all animals are on the website.

I found a lovely dog for my husband's aunt this past summer at :

Pom Small Breed Rescue <psbrescue@yahoo.ca>

I found them on Petfinder.com, and they have volunteers all over SW Ontario. I live in London, the dog was in Cambridge, a volunteer from Owen Sound area inspected the aunt's house in Goderich! The dog was transported to Stratford area then to Goderich, so these folks are meticulous and definitely have the dogs' best interests at heart! Sasha and the aunt are very happy together!!!

Good luck!:fingerscr

Sasha the dog is a sheltie!! You can narrow down your search on Petfinder by rescue organization at the top of the website!

I just found 7 in ontario on petfinder. I don't know where you are but you can also check out SOS rescue(Southern Ontario Sheltie Rescue). Look under Shetland Sheepdog vs Sheltie. You will find them this way.
