Welcome to RiverDance Shelties. We are located in South Central Pennsylvania and have been active within the breed since 1998. Our start being within our local County 4H Dog Club with our then 10 year old daughter Lindsay and her bi black sheltie Maximillian. While active in this club we placed several CGC (Canine Good Citizen) and TDI (Therapy Dog International) certifications upon our shelties and participated in 4H performance competitions and dog therapy.

We ventured into the conformation ring in the year 2000 with our first show hopeful Can Ch Starswept Barwood Bravado, 2 pts, CGC, TDI, Jamie. Since that time we have finished two Canadian Ch's and gained Am points on two other shelties before we had our first homebred Am Ch this year with BISS RiverDance Dressed to Kilt, Rory, who is now loved and owned by Wespointe Shelties of Canada. We can't thank Iona and Akadia Shelties enough for loving and promoting our boy to his Am Ch. in such a quick manner. Rory also placed second in his quality packed ASSA National Class this year in 2007.

Currently we have in residence our foundation girl Morrighan and her daughter Emma. Morrighan is the dam to Rory above and Emma is a repeat of this breeding. Morrighan also has a daughter who lives with her breeder in Canada. (Starswept Shelties)

Our goal in shelties is to maintain the inherent qualities of our foundation girl and continue to improve upon this with the standard as our guide. All of our shelties are house dogs and pets first. We participate in the conformation ring as a serious hobby when we can. We do not breed very often and have had only three litters to date. Each has been well thought out and planned with much research and consideration and had very positive outcomes we can be proud of.

Please feel free to visit our shelties on the following pages and contact me anytime via email with any questions or comments about our shelties.
