Phaelan’s Shetland Sheepdogs
Cecilia Raath
'No matter how little money
and how few possessions you own, having a dog
makes you rich.'
- Louis Sabin
I fell in love with collies when I was still
young. After reading “Chummy” by Brenda Munitich
in grade 6 and watching Lassie (sobbing
uncontrollably after every episode) I knew I was
sold to their nature.
I had to choose between studying physiotherapy
and becoming a veterinary surgeon, but I knew my
heart would daily break in a thousand little
pieces if I chose the latter.
Later, I started straying further into animal
physiotherapy, which mainly consisted of
treating horses with very few canine treatments.
I did not grow up with horses, so I felt
completely out of my league. After I went to
treat a horse, driving with my beetle to
Onderstepoort every day for a week, the student
asked me to invoice the owners. I could not. It
felt like a crime claiming back my fuel expense.
It was in that moment that I knew that I would
never be able to survive financially, let alone
make a living in animal physiotherapy.
My love for collies grew and I bought my first
pedigree, Phaelan (the Gaelic word for wolf) in
2003, using every cent of my savings. Seeing how
many rescue dogs there were in the Border Collie
Rescue, I knew that not many people are equipped
or prepared to keep such a lively breed. So, I
decided to spay my female Nikita, born in 2004,
and my dream of being breeder, was put on hold
until both passed in mature age.
I was still set on collies, the reason being
that I also have many other animals (rabbits,
parrots, a chinchilla) and a hunting type breed
would not work at all. So, I searched for rough
collie breeders in South Africa, but to no
avail. Fortune smiled on me when a friend
introduced me to the Shelties. Bingo! Their
temperament, activity level, coat and
personalities were exactly what I was looking
for.
Aegon
I bought Scozzes Krypton from Carla van der
Merwe in 2019 and called him Aegon (meaning I AM
KING). I fell head over heels in love with him.
I do not think I have ever felt so close to any
animal in my life. With his soft, gentle
temperament, he is my dearest companion and
loyal running partner that scrambled into my
heart and took up permanent residence.
Aegon has clear health records in all inherited
diseases with A hips and 0 elbow classification
– the perfect stud! I was still on the waiting
list at Wylwind for a female. I visited Joanie
Wylie in Pinelands CT, and immediately fell in
love with Glamour, her bi-black female, who soon
was to be on heat.
Khaleesi
I decided to wait for her puppies, and Khaleesi
(meaning queen) (WYLWIND I AM KHALEESI), the
pick of the litter, became part of my life.
She is gorgeous and by far feistier than Aegon.
Joanie Wylie, a dedicated and passionate
breeder, helped me with advice and incredible
support, through Khaleesi’s first year and
whelping a litter. Six perfectly healthy pups
were born on 20 November 2020 of which 5 were
sable and 1 tricolour. Only one girl! Each puppy
was given a gemstone name, because that was what
they were to me - even more precious than gems.
Our next litter is planned for Dec2021/Jan2022.
Hopefully, a tricolour puppy (Reign) and a
bi-blue puppy (Skye) will join our family before
the end of the year. Our dream for Phaelan’s
Shetland Sheepdogs is to represent the whole
spectrum of the rainbow of Sheltie coat colours
one day.

Jenny Mitchell
I was first introduced to a
Sheltie when my parents purchased one, I fell in
love with the breed immediately and so my
Sheltie journey started shortly afterwards.
JOSIE & BLAZE
I purchased my first Sheltie, Josie, in early
1997 and then at the end of 1997, Blaze
(Highgate’s Blaze ’n Star). They were such easy
dogs, eager to please with wonderful
temperaments. Blaze was particularly special, we
attended obedience classes, but at that stage,
I, unfortunately, didn’t know much about working
the breed. I was determined my next Sheltie
would be a working and dancing Sheltie. I’d
heard about Shelties dancing, which really
appealed to me.
BELLA
In 2009 I purchased Bella (Shemaur Sophia), I
was very keen to work her, but realised after a
few months, that she had severe hip problems, as
well as being hypothyroid. My Sheltie working
plans were put on hold. Bella was a very special
girl, everyone loved her gorgeous personality,
she never complained in her short life, always
cheerful and happy to greet everyone. I imported
a ‘dog’ pram from USA and would take her out as
often as I could, much to many people’s
amusement and curiosity.
KENZIE
In 2016, I purchased McKenzie (Rivenwood Prince
Caspian) a shy and sensitive fellow, ever so
affectionate. My first Show dog, which was all
new to me, but he hated the Show ring, I took
him out of it after a few months of anxious show
days. With a lot of work and patience he has now
become easier. Kenzie loves dog dancing and
rally free, he has his first qualification at
Beginner level for dancing. Due to his sensitive
nature agility has been tough, but our
perseverance has paid off, it took him two years
to finally conquor his fear of the dog walk and
A-frame and no longer hides in the tunnel!! He’s
decided it’s quite fun now!
RAINE
Kenzie desperately wanted a playmate and so
Raine (Akazia Summer Rain) came into our family
in 2017. I was so blessed to be one of the homes
chosen from this outgoing litter. Raine has so
much drive with a lot to say, she loves agility,
especially when she can make up her own
course.... she also loves the Show ring, quite
the show-off, chats a lot and engages with the
Judge, sometimes a bit too confidently! She
officially became a Breed Champion in Sept 2018.
Raine entered her first dance competition at 6
months of age, coming 2nd in the Novice level to
her sister Reeva. She catches on quickly and is
eager to please. I am thoroughly enjoying
working with this little girl.
MIKA
In early 2018, a English boy, Mika (Lavika
Magical Me) a beautiful Sable and White, came to
live with me, he is co-owned with a friend. He’s
an affectionate, confident boy, I’ve loved
watching him mature, he gets prettier by the
day. We have great plans for his agility and
dancing career.
I’ve learnt so much over the past few years,
with lots of help from the Sheltie experts and
the endless patience of dog trainers, thank you
to all of you. I would love to have my house
filled with Shelties, they truly are a special,
intelligent breed.

Skyla

My husband and I were on
our honeymoon about 4 years ago when we first
spotted a sheltie. My exact words to him were
“when we get our first dog it has to be a
sheltie” I would hear of nothing else.
If you have ever owned a
sheltie you will know all about love, loyalty,
passion and loads of energy. This little sheltie
of ours has crept her way into our hearts where
she will stay forever.
Skyla has such a wonderful
temperament, she is intelligent, has a beautiful
coat and is the perfect size girl.
_small.jpg)
Skyla is 2 years old now, I
started showing her about a year ago. My
sister-in-law encouraged me and gave me the
final push I needed. It has been a long hard
road for us as I had no idea what I was doing
but, I have been lucky enough to have had so
much help, love and support.
Skyla was finally made a
champion in August 2018 and it was a very proud
moment for us all.
To us Skyla isn’t just a
pet she is a huge part of the family and we are
so lucky to have her in our lives.

  I
grew up with a Rough Collie (tri) & a x-breed
but always wanted a little dog who could sleep
on my bed. The Collie was my best friend & so
have always wanted a Sheltie. Well after a whole
load of life happening, my husband had tried a
few times to find 1 for me but to no avail we
were down to 1 dog & I was told they were going
to be expropriating part of my front garden for
the widening of the road. I panicked & decided I
needed to get another dog which led me to my
awesome Aussies who leg me to the world of dog
shows & Agility & ultimately to breeders of
Shelties. I met Joanie & her awesome girl Iris &
as that was my mother's name I decided it was a
sign that I get a pup from her so my hubby put
my name down for a pup as my 50th birthday & my
30th wedding anniversary was coming up :) It was
meant to be a surprise but he couldn't keep it &
then a few things went wrong so we had to wait a
little longer but this year my dream came true
when Iris had my bi-blue boy: Wylwind Gibson's
Dream. So now our journey is just beginning & we
will hopefully be trying our hand @ all the
things his crazy Aussie siblings do. He is such
a confident, crazy pup & gorgeous (well in my
eyes anyway) pup & just hope I can do him
justice! |

  I
have always admired the Shelties from other
people and always told myself, one day! In
Namibia, it isn’t always as easy to get your
hands on your chosen bred, and that is the
reason why I started my journey into the herding
breed with a Border collie, locally bred. Then
came the Australian Shepherds into my life, two
from South Africa and one locally bred. But my
heart yearned for a little Shetland Sheepdog of
my own. When I met my little girls breeders, she
took me under her mentoring wings, and fulfilled
my wish of owning my 1st own Sheltie, CH
Mackland Fifth Element of Akazia CGC Gold.
It surely was love at 1st sight, and a steep
learning curve as to what the Sheltie breed was
all about. Diva was born as Orange Girl, the
smallest girl in the Sci-Fi litter at Mackland
Kennels, but surely the cutest. She always knew
exactly what she wanted, and how to get it. She
was Miss Bossy to the rest of my pack from the
day I brought her home, and showed all that
dynamite really does come in small packages.
Diva is a real all rounder, although a bit on
the small side, smaller than all anticipated.
But I entered her in breed Shows, locally in
Windhoek and some in South Africa and also
starter her training with some Obedience and
also Agility. She loved every minute of
training, and both of us learned together. Diva
never really played with other dogs, except for
a chosen few, but she loved to play with me and
so our bond grew and prospered. She had gained a
real following in Namibia of admirers in her
short life.
  Nadine
Shortland, breeder extraordinaire, has helped me
throughout Divas life, with advice; guidance in
all things Sheltie related and also helped me
with Divas 1st litter. It sure was an amazing
journey to have taken with my girl, and I would
not want to have missed it for the world, but
breeding isn’t for the faint of heart. Diva had
3 beautiful puppies of which the 2 girlies went
to amazing homes in Cape Town and I kept the
boy, as from Day 1 Diva seemed to single him out
as a play mate. So you could say that Diva chose
her son, Epic – Akazia Summer Magic, as her own
personal playing companion, and oh boy do they
play, all day long! Epic is a fun loving,
barking little fluff ball, that loves training
and me and our journey together has only just
begun.
The saying is very true: you cannot just have
one sheltie. Having 2 little fluffy slippers, my
friends nickname for my dogs, have been an
amazing journey and I am looking forward to the
rest of the journey. Shelties are truly an
amazing breed, but just be prepared to put in
your all in their training, cuddling and
grooming requirements. Looking forward to the
rest of my journey with my 2 cotton balls and
also my journey with the Shetland Sheepdog
breed, hoping for many more years with these
wonderful dogs. And who knows what the future
holds, maybe another lovely girl will come my
way with who I can experience all that life has
to offer, maybe even breeding again someday and
hoping for an amazing boy too.

Dollar
Dawn Crawshaw

Dollar started out her life
as Purple Girl. Larger than her siblings but
perfect in my eyes.
It was clear this little Girl was something
special. I picked her up from the Airport she
sat on the back seat of the car and barked,
This was my 1st Sheltie although not the 1st dog
I've trained. And boy oh boy did she keep me
busy. Always keen to learn, always watching my
other dog (Amy a Springer ) and ready to try and
copy her.
We seemed to fly through the Obedience levels
and Dollar achieved her Champion Status at just
3 years and gaining KUSA National Obedience
titles in 2017 and 2018!
I started tracking Doll when she was 10/11
weeks. All food motivated . Dollar loves her
food and made sure NOTHING was left on her tiny
track.
Working Trials Classic is different to Obedience
where the dog has to qualify Companion Dog to be
able to move up to the Tracking Stakes. 1st time
out of the blocks she qualifiedCD with an
Excellent Grading.
Tracker Dog 1 followed then Tracker Dog 2 and to
date were busy getting ready for Tracker Dog 3
where hopefully she can gain her Tracker Dog
Champion.
Within Working Trials we have Working Utility
Dog (WUD). 5 qualications are needed (3 being
graded Excellent) to become a WUD Champion.
Dollar picked up her 2nd Championship in 2017.
She is such a super little dog yep she makes
mistakes but that's what they are MISTAKES.
Dollar has achieved much more than I could have
imagined. Even producing 5 beautiful pups in
2016!! She's covered such a lot in her 4 short
year's and I can't wait to see the next chapter.

Wylwind Shetland Sheepdogs
Joanie Wylie

I had always admired the little sheltie in books
about dog breeds, but my first experience of a
living sheltie was in Canada, where friends of
mine owned a sable & white bitch. She was the
most beautiful dog I had ever seen, such a
beautiful coat, a wonderful temperament, light
and agile on her feet, active and obedient. She
was also extremely beautifully groomed and I
soon learnt that she was not only a champion
“show dog” but also an agility champion. I
decided there and then that this would be a
breed I would love to own, for its beauty, its
intelligence, its versatility and the fact that
it was not a big dog, so would easily fit in a
household of many people, which I had.
Back in South Africa, I began to search for just
such a sheltie. I soon realized that the sheltie
I saw in Canada was somewhat different to the
shelties I was seeing in South Africa. I had
much to learn. There seemed to be very few
breeders around and the ones with available
puppies, didn’t have what I was looking for. On
reading the UK and the AKC Standards, my
conclusion
back then
was that it seemed to be a matter of
how you
interpreted the standard, besides the
obvious size limits in the two standards.
Because I couldn’t find what I was looking for
here in South Africa at that time, and because I
had connections with family and friends in
Canada, I decided to import a bitch. I purchased
my first sheltie, Kadie, from Guy Jeavons
of Grandgables kennels in Canada in 2013
and so began my Wylwind Shetland Sheepdogs
journey.
CH Grandgables Most Appealing (Imp Canada)
Kadie was (and still IS) a wonderful sheltie. A
beautiful sable bitch, stunning temperament and
intelligent and she soon became a champion in
South Africa even though she was frowned upon
for not being British. I wanted to breed a
litter and without many mentors around, decided
that the Standard, health and temperament were
naturally vital aspects to consider. Although
Kadie had clear health records in all inherited
diseases pertaining to shelties, and had a
wonderful temperament, she didn’t have perfect
hips, and I wanted to breed her to a dog with
excellent hips. On a further visit to Canada, I
purchased a tri colour male, also from
Grandgables kennels – Roman.
CH Grandgables Romance the Stone (Imp
Canada)
Roman
had A hips, also had clear health records and a
wonderful temperament. I thought this would be
the ideal breeding pair, but the results of this
litter made me really start to think about where
I wanted to go in shelties. I didn’t have any
concrete plans prior to this, and was still very
new to the breed, so began reading up and
studying the breed standard. Although the
Canadian or US type was not as acceptable
here in the show ring as the UK type, I still
felt that I wanted to work with what I had, but
towards producing a sheltie that had that
beauty, coat, temperament and health that I
first fell in love with – but with the added
aspect of that sweeter expression. In my
research I also became interested in the bi blue
and blue merle colours of the sheltie and in
2016 imported a beautiful bi blue bitch from the
Laureate kennels in Canada, Iris.
CH Laureate Iridescent of Wylwind (Imp
Canada)
The results from the mating of Iris and Roman
also left me with more food for thought and
planning. For my next litter I mated Kadie to an
Australian import who was a mix of American and
UK lines, Reece (Ch Sharndah Encore Encore at
Mackland). The results of this breeding produced
lovely moderate size dogs with a sweeter
expression and this would then be the first
homebred dog I would keep at Wylwind – Indy.
Indy has excelled in the show ring, becoming a
Grand Champion and in 2018 was the top sheltie
in the country, according to the KUSA ratings.
She has a beautiful coat, a lovely expression
and a wonderful temperament. My intentions were
to find a pure UK dog to put her to, in order to
hopefully produce a more British sheltie with
wonderful coat, temperament and health records.
Wylwind On Cloud Nine
In 2018 I bred Iris to Gr Ch Sharndah Encore
Encore of Mackland and the result of this mating
is my pretty little bi black bitch, Glamour. My
plans for Glamour will unfold as I watch her
grow, but in the meantime she is enjoying social
puppy training, clicker training and the
beginnings of agility training.
Wylwind
Glamour Girl
In 2018 I also bred Kadie to Zz (Ch Mackland
Fizzing Whizbee), a dog of mostly British
breeding. I was very pleased with the outcome of
this mating, and this again has helped me on my
journey of planning. Although I didn’t keep a
puppy at Wylwind, I am watching this litter
grow, with great interest.
In 2017 I imported from the UK (in co-ownership
with a friend) a pure British male, for the
purpose of adding pure British blood into my
lines. He came from Lavika kennels in the UK –
Mika. He is a beautiful, sable male, with an
absolutely wonderful temperament and is a year
old (Sept 2018) but sadly only has one descended
teste.
Lavika Magical Me
Breeding dogs is not easy. There are SO MANY
aspects to consider, and my experience of
breeding shelties has been sometimes
heart-breaking and sometimes devastating, as one
experiences shattered dreams and hopes dashed.
If one has a plan in mind, plans can change as
things either work out or don’t, so my sheltie
story is still evolving, but what remains
constant is my love for this breed and my
striving to breed towards the British Standard,
to maintain clear health records and to breed
dogs of great beauty with great temperaments.
This takes time and dedication, sometimes moving
forward, sometimes having to re-think a plan or
change course completely, and all the while …
learning.

Mackland Shetland Sheepdogs
Nadine Shortland
A Sheltie is a very difficult dog to breed!
My dogs are not perfect by any means, but I am
always striving to learn more and improve my
lines. I have set certain goals and criteria for
the standard of my dogs, and I hope one day to
achieve everything that I have set out to.
After researching the health of the Sheltie, I
was horrified to find that very few breeders in
South Africa did any testing. There is a fair
amount of testing available to the Sheltie
breeder in SA, and a whole lot more overseas. I
decided to make this a priority, and try and
reach my goals with healthy dogs!
My aim has always been to breed healthy
Shelties, with good conformation, but that are
also able to compete in the disciplines ie “do a
job”.
I began with a dog from a good kennel in
Germany, English type, with the idea that I
would work her and find the perfect male for
her, and hopefully have a litter or two. Her
workability turned out to be fabulous.
CH & GRCH(DJ) GRCH(AG) GRCH (NC) Excellent
Choice All I Want for Mackland CGC (Imp Germany)
I could not find a tested male in SA that suited
her, and the owners of any that I looked at were
not keen on spending any money on testing. I
took it upon myself to test a couple of other
people’s males myself, in the hopes that I could
catch a break, but I wasn’t that lucky. Of those
that I tested, not only were there no genetic
CEA Clears, there were no Carriers either! ALL
were Affected for CEA. So I decided to import a
male from the same kennel in Germany – one that
I was advised as suitable for my girl by their
breeder. He was, in fact, very similar to my
girl, and going by my Border Collie knowledge in
breeding type to type, I agreed.
CH Excellent Choice On a Mission for
Mackland CGC (Imp Germany)
The litter was born, 5 pups, but it was a
difficult birth so I decided to spay my girl and
keep a daughter. While the litter was healthy
and well bred, I knew that I lacked something in
my dogs. So I decided to research some more and
learn a bit more.
Mackland Gummiberryjuice
I keep going back to my
aims:
Health, temperament, drive, structure,
trainability & conformation
Although I was excited about my first litter,
and I was happy with the overall quality when it
came to structure and size of the puppies, I was
disappointed with the temperaments. The pups
were a bit weak in temperament, being a bit more
reserved than I like. Their bone was also quite
fine. I came to the conclusion that I needed
more substance and stronger temperaments, so I
decided to take the plunge and Import a Canadian
bitch with the idea that I would add her to my
English line and create more of a happy medium.
My English dogs are fine boned, with weaker
personalities, but they also have some
outstanding qualities that I wanted to keep.
Expression was my number one criteria to
maintain here, and also the workability,
together with their cheeky and mischievous
natures. Other things such as size, long arched
necks, great tailsets and tail lengths were
assets that I didn't want to lose either.
Breeding my English boy to my Canadian was not
on the cards, I realized after numerous tries,
so I had to go elsewhere and put her to another
Canadian. Although the litter was nice, and also
healthy, the litter showed no uniformity that I
was so used to in Borders. First of all, the
sizes varied from under -to over-sized,
temperament and workability were all different,
and the overall structures varied. I had very
mixed feelings about this, as I felt that I was
going nowhere.
I was also not sold on the Canadian look of the
sheltie – but I was totally in awe of the stable
temperament, though! What worried me most was
the head and expression of the Canadians – the
eyes were rounder, harder and changed the
“sweet” melting sheltie expression that I had
grown to love. The muzzle was also very strong,
and although I do want a stronger muzzle,
together with a deeper underjaw, I was not ready
for the added depth of head that it gave me.
This to me, was the ultimate sacrifice, and I
decided to try and avoid it in future. I loved
the stronger bone and sturdier structure,
though, and hoped to keep some of this. But
sadly none of this was possible and I ended up
with the line coming to an end.
So, I decided to go the slightly milder route
and import a finer American bitch. This, it
seems, was the right thing to do, for me to work
towards my goals. I got a lovely sized bitch,
quite small, with a more moderate head, and
relatively pretty expression. Her depth of head
was still on the heavier side, but a huge
improvement on where I have already been. I love
her outgoing nature – she loves people, and is a
very easy going little girl. I was planning on
perhaps putting my English boy to her to see how
that turned out.
CH Leigh-hi's Come Fly with Me to Mackland
CGC (Imp USA)
Meanwhile, the English girl that I had kept from
my first litter was coming of age to be bred,
and I started thinking what to try there. I knew
that I wanted something a little “more” added to
her, so started looking in Australia for a nice
mix. I found a lovely boy, and was planning on
importing semen from him. He was from a kennel
that I had been looking at because the breeders
had exactly the same aims as me – to breed a
mixture of American and English lines, and try
and keep the sweet expression and workability.
They then offered me the boy’s half-brother! I
had a look at him and was so impressed. I really
liked what I saw and said yes. He arrived and I
was overjoyed to see that he had exceeded all of
my expectations – I loved him! This was the
turning point for me.
CH(Aus) & GRCH CH Sharndah Encore Encore at
Mackland CGC (Imp Australia)
So, for my breeding program, I was left with 2
English, 1 light American and 1 mix to work with
in the end. I felt that I was finally on stage 2
of my breeding learning curve!
The year 2016 was good to me, I did 2 matings –
I decided to rather try the light American to
the Australian mix and the English to Australian
mix. By using the same male on 2 bitches, I
could get an idea of what he produced to 2
different types of shelties. That gave me one
litter of a more English mix, and one litter of
a more American mix. I loved both litters, and
feel that I am much closer to my final aim. I am
still working on it. The more English litter has
quite a nice look to it, but the size has crept
in a bit, so I need to remember to try and keep
this down in future. The light American girl
produced a lovely litter, nicely sized and with
good conformation – I will do a repeat of this
combination! It certainly produced more of what
I am aiming for, even if some of the pups were a
little strong in head!
CH Mackland Fizzing Whizbee CGC
CH(Aus) Mackland Wings ov Chamge (Export
Australia)
2017 was the time for round 3, and by now I know
that I am getting closer! I have noticed a few
things that have crept in that I should keep an
eye on – the first being the straight topline
(not to be confused with a level back as the
standard says). The sheltie topline starts at
the tip of the ears to the end of the tail – it
is a graceful sweep of lines and curves. My
American’s have levelled out quite a bit, so I
will be aiming at making sure their toplines
improve. This, together with the refined head
that I am sometimes getting are priorities at
the moment, but my original goals remain in
place – sweetness of expression, health &
workability, and also the stable temperament.
2018 started off with a bang, as I
raised my 2017 mix-litter over the Christmas
holidays and into 2018. This litter has exceeded
my expectations, and perhaps I finally have my
mix girl to go forward with [Brave]. I have been
wanting a daughter from my Australian import for
quite a while, and it seems that I may have one!
Mackland Bravo Bravo JM
2018 was an exciting year, with 1 litter born
(another mix), and one new arrival at Mackland.
My UK-mix boy was used by another breeder to her
small Canadian bitch, and I could not resist a
puppy from this. This girl has exceeded all my
exprectations and she is a born Agility dog,
taking after her German great granny! [Story]
I also decided to keep a daughter of the same
male who was bred to my small American girl [GraVity]
- these 2 girls are two peas in a pod and I am
delighted with them!
Wylwind Fairytale at Mackland
Mackland Zero GraVity
2019 included a litter which produced a first
for Mackland - some bi-blacks! While these
weren't the aim of the breeding, they certainly
were a hit amongst the Agility folk!
Unfortunately only 1 pup from this litter was
suitable for breeding on, and he was sold to a
breeder friend nearby. Also in 2019, I attempted
a repeat of my successful UK-mix litter.
Unfortunately there were only 2 pups in the
litter, but I decided to keep the little girl -
all UK type, with added substance, and just what
I was looking for!
Mackland My Serendipity
At the end of 2019, Mackland’s first tri-colour
sheltie arrived - a little UK type boy from
Australia! He is a fine, little guy, extremely
sweet and ALL UK type! I think that he may be
the ticket to getting closer to my original
goals - because at present I have a selection of
lovely mixed girls to go forward with!
Bluegables th Darke Side of Mackland
It’s all coming together nicely!
