July is Lost Pet Prevention Month

The number FOUR reason Shelties go missing is they pulled out of their collar when startled on a walk by a bigger dog or a loud noise. A Sheltie’s neck is larger than their head and need a no-slip collar w/buckle or a martingale collar.
https://www.whitepineoutfitters.com/shop-all/mini-softweb-combo-collar

DOUBLE LEASHED: One leash attached to the harness and one leash attached to a Martingale collar doubles their safety. If your Sheltie slips the collar, a leash is still attached to the harness.

These are some of the times to double leash your Sheltie to keep them the safest:
• Newly adopted Shelties. You are taking them out of an environment they are likely comfortable with and taking them to people and places they are unsure of. They should be double leashed on potty breaks (even in a fenced yard), and on walks. * It has been noted that it’s best to wait 3+ weeks for them to become more comfortable with you before taking "long" walks in the neighborhood.
• You should never let a newly adopted Sheltie off leash in an area not fenced. They have – AND most likely will run off.
• Shy and puppy mill Shelties. They are always nervous of their surroundings. They may require double leashing the rest of their life.
• Traveling & Rest Areas. They are in unfamiliar area with cars and trucks moving near them. The semis have air brakes that may startle them also.

✂️ Be sure to always adjust the fit on their harness & collar after grooming.

🚪 If you're going on vacation and leaving your Sheltie in the care of a friend or family member, purchase a baby gate for the area by their exit door. The #1 reason Shelties go missing while in the care of a pet sitter is they "bolted out an opened door."

For more ideas to add to your Sheltie’s safety routine, go to Minnesota Sheltie Rescue web page and read “Prevention of a Lost Sheltie.” Be sure to print out a copy and go over it with your pet sitter.
