I am located in Newark, Delaware.
I meet with ALL prospective buyers in person before they take their pup home, so they can visit with the pups, see parents (unless an outside stud has been used, in which case photo of sire).
There will be the usual non-breeding contract with the full purchase price refund for up to 6 months after purchase of the dog for people interested in a pet. If however, you are someone interested in breeding, a breeding contract can be substituted.
Puppies are 8 weeks old when they leave for their new homes.
Manni x Savannah litter, whelped June 7, 2024 went to the vet on Thursday for their 6 week old wellness check and all are doing fine. No heart murmurs, no hernias, testicles descended, etc.
Anyone interested in either making an appointment to visit the pups, or would like to reserve a puppy now, can contact me. Phone/text: 302 668 5064, email: yankeeshelties@icloud.com .
If you want to place a non-refundable deposit of $500, I can send an email invoice for you to pay using your bank account online (no credit cards) and send an email contract for the puppy of your choice. Once the deposit is received, that puppy is reserved for you. Pick up is at 8 weeks old (August 2, 2024) and when the balance of $1500 will be due. (Cash, check, Goldbacks or silver)
I am a minimal vaccination breeder and can administer Parvo and Distemper shot at 8 weeks old IF you want. Or you can go to your vet and have them give the traditional 5 way/7 way shots or whatever.
Puppies will go home with 3 days worth of raw, freeze dried food to be mixed with whatever food you decide to feed your puppy, a stuffed toy that smells like home, copies of parents medical clearances, AKC registration application should you want to register them with AKC and a tote bag to take it all home.
Below are photos of the available puppies:

Each breeder decides what they wish to do in order to maintain healthy dogs and bitches.
On the “boys” and “girls” page, I list the medical clearances performed on each animal for the prospective buyer to see. Other breeders may do the same, some may do less testing, some do none. All the testing and cost of maintaining the adults adds to the cost of each puppy.
Information regarding both parents' medical clearances are given to each puppy buyer. That information is also very helpful for the vets that will be caring for these puppies once they go to their new homes.
With a Yankee Sheltie you are getting a puppy that was produced utilizing the best practices, the best nutrition, the best knowledge that I have. That is because I enjoy this activity and enjoy learning about canine care. I am passionate about raising dog breeding to an art form.
Other breeders may or may not have a contract that stipulates what the sale involves. I have one.
WOW! What a concept!
Here are the highlights:
Every once in a while, someone will ask if I would stipulate monthly payments in the contract for my shetland sheepdog puppies for sale. My answer is always “no”. The reasons are as follows:
So, all shetland sheepdog puppies for sale are always for full payment. This can be via cash, check or credit card if you wish.
The price of a puppy regardless of sex or color is $2000. Here is what is included with every sale of a Yankee Sheltie puppy:
There is so much more that puppies go through before they ever reach the arms of their new owner. If you are interested in a little "back story" on what happens here at Yankee Shetland Sheepdogs, try the links below.
I used to implant and register a microchip but I'm finding that the nefarious dog thieves have become adept at surgically removing the chips, so have to wonder at their efficacy. However, if you feel it is worthwhile, your vet can implant it. Just remember that YOU have to register your contact info with the chip company in order for them to be able to contact you,
Please see my page on the microchip for specifics.
I also used to register your pup with AKC but they have changed their system at this point where it makes more sense for you to do it either by snail mail or online.
Go to this page for further info.
If you are still researching whether this is the right breed for you, check out the page on Sheltie Personality. I'd rather see you choose a different breed than make a mistake on the type of dog that would work best for your household. Just because these sheltie puppies for sale are cute, doesn't mean you'd enjoy them for a lifetime unless they are a good match for you.
It's always wonderful to hear how each of the Yankee Sheltie pups are doing in their new homes. And photos of them as they grow up are so much fun.
Please feel free to show the world your special Yankee Sheltie. Your photo and comments will appear as it's OWN PAGE on this website for you and your friends to visit.
