Shelties, shepherding is in their blood. Bred in Scotland for this very purpose, it’s no wonder they have a strong urge to do it. In fact, they’ll herd just about anything. Shelties are intelligent and agile dogs, and they are very good at following commands. They are also very protective of their flock. So when Frodo, a city sheltie, visited a farm for the first time, you would think he would know what to do. Well…

Picture this: Your mum’s making magic happen in the kitchen again. It’s one of the reasons you hang out with her there. If you’re lucky, a slice of carrot will drop, if you’re loved 3 or 4 will hit the floor, and mate, you are loved. But this day, there’s a smell that’s both familiar and new. It’s warm and comforting, with a hint of sweetness. You can’t quite place it, in fact, angels might have difficulty with describing it.
