Toni's Info...
| Breed: | Sheltie, Shetland Sheepdog | Color: | Red/Golden/Orange/Chestnut - With White | Age: | Adult |
| Size: | Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg) | Sex: | Female |
I am already spayed, housetrained, purebred, up to date with shots, and good with dogs.
Toni is a beautiful sable female sheltie . She is of average size at about 30 lbs and 16 inches . My son has lived with Toni as his foster sheltie for nearly 3 years now . Toni came to us at age 6 and was on the shy side as so many shelties are and in fact this trait is noted in the breed standard in the AKC description of the shetland sheepdog aka sheltie . But over the years Toni has endured many experiences and visited many of our public events successfully . She is well behaved at home and a loving companion. Toni is happy and secure and loved in her foster home but we wish for Toni to have her own family or person to love her . In the meantime Toni is still patiently waiting while her foster family take good care of her and loves her .

Indiana Sheltie Rescue, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation consisting of a small group of volunteers who have come together to help homeless shelties. We are always looking for additional volunteers, and capable and loving foster homes to offer a temporary safe haven to Shetland Sheepdogs. Our shelties make their way into our program as owner surrenders, shelter dogs, or are found as strays by caring individuals.
Because we are a small group of volunteers, most of our work is done within the borders of Indiana. Our number one concern is the future and safety of our rescued shelties and we are anxious to hear from you if you think our program is appropriate for you!

All shelties are first placed in foster homes to be evaluated for their health and temperament and receive medical care. Our adoption fee is $175, which includes medical care, spaying or neutering, all vaccines, and micro chipping. The adoption fee for dogs over 10 is reduced to $50 in an effort not to lessen their value but to increase interest in adopting senior dogs. Each adopter is required to fill out an application, available either online or by snail mail. Each adopter must also have a home visit. We then work to match the right dog to the right home situation in an effort to find a permanent home for each sheltie for the remainder of his or her life. If you see one of our dogs that particularly appeals to you, please feel free to apply for that dog (although the pre-adoptive procedures still need to be completed).
We also have an adoption contract to be signed before the adoption is complete, at which time you receive copies of all medical records. Should something fail with the adoption after all this effort, the sheltie must be returned to Indiana Sheltie Rescue.
