Starstruck Shelties was established in 1994 and Starstruck Agility in 2000. We are located in Spanish Springs, a small community just north of Reno/Sparks, Nevada. Our home sits on a little over an acre, and the back portion of the acre is a grass agility field where I hold classes four days a week

Starstruck Shelties is a very small kennel. We have five adult sable and white shelties – 1 male and 4 females. Our dogs have the run of the house and sleep at the foot of our bed. Two of our girls are AKC champions, have agility titles and are registered Pet Therapy dogs. Our one male needs a major to complete his AKC championship, and he also has agility titles. The dogs that are used for breeding are checked for hip dysplasia, eye diseases, and vWD. We raise litters once or twice a year. The puppies are raised in the kitchen/family room area with a lot of hands on love and affection. The puppies are exposed to a lot of different surfaces (grass, dirt, small rocks, cement, carpet, etc) and objects (playing in tunnels, crawling up small stairs, jumping over rocks and in-between boulders, etc.) Also, the neighborhood children come over and play with the puppies. Pet/companion puppies are sold on a spay/neuter contract on an AKC Limited Registration.
