Conestoga Shelties
Meet the breeder
I'm Cherylyn M., the breeder behind Conestoga Shelties located in Deer Island, OR. Many of our puppies have become exceptional show dogs, and all of them have become excellent family dogs and lifelong friends. When we bring a life into the world, we make sure it gets the best start possible. This includes proper health care and socialization for each puppy, but it starts even earlier than birth. We set our puppies up for success by carefully selecting the parents of each litter, keeping in mind factors such as health, temperament, conformation, ability, and drive. Our goal is to produce well-balanced puppies and find them loving, responsible homes.
