Egypt's Story

Heartland generally serves Indiana, Kentucky and the Cincinnati areas. However we cannot cover every area. We do work with our sister and brother rescues in other areas as well. Please consider your local Sheltie rescue before applying outside your area. <br/><br/>We will NOT ship our available dogs. A home visit by a volunteer is required before an application can be approved. ********************************************************************************************<br/>Egypt came to rescue from a commercial breeder. She was dominated by another Sheltie who came in with her that liked to chew on Egypt's coat so it's still growing back on her lower back.<br/>She doesn't have a mean bone in her body. Very sweet but quite shy with people. She is great with other dogs. She does bark but not excessively.<br/>Egypt has a soft mouth when taking a treat. In a quiet environment she will blossom!<br/>This sweet girl is learning to be a companion and will now come up to her foster family to be picked up, but ya have to be fast or she will change her mind. Once on a lap, she likes to cuddle and will fall asleep in the arms that hold her gently.<br/>Egypt now cuddles up to her Foster Mom on the sofa and will lick her neck and ears. But it takes time for her to warm up.<br/>She enjoys other dogs and has begun to play a little. <br/><br/>She has been fully vetted, including a dental.cleaning. <br/>A securely fenced yard is required for Egypt.
