Sleep on the bed with you? allowed on the furniture?
or not?
Mine are spoiled - they jump up on the bed, sofa, etc.
They do require brushing as their hair will mat up if not cared for.
Shelties are pretty dogs, just need tons of running time, they love to run. I have one that if you are not watching will run right up under your feet and that can be dangerous at times.
They are a herding breed and will attempt to Herd anyone or anything that is mobile.
