My shelties are nine, thirteen and still going strong although the older one is losing his sight... They love and keep you smiling right up to the time they pass along the rainbow bridge.
I feel your pain. Me and my family had to put or 10 yr old sheltie Buddy down about 3 weeks ago. Unfortunately he had cancer, and he started to shut down and quit eating. But they are GREAT dogs and Im sure you had just as much fun as we did with ours.
My dog as a kid was a sheltie she lived to be almost 16 probably would have lived longer if she hadn't had to be put down after falling off our deck and paralyzing her back half. She ate a very cheep brand of food but was aloud out to run and exercise a lot I now have two 1 year old shelties and hope to have them just as long <3
My dog Taffy was half mini collie and half sheltie and she died back in 1996 at the ripe old age of 15 years old in her sleep. She was like a little sister to me and a big part of our family. We even have a monument(headstone) for her in our garden with her picture on it. Rest in peace my Taffy(1981-1996).
I had a lab collie chow mix that lives to be 15 years but unfourntly a couple weeks after his b-day he had a stroke and we choose to put him to sleep... On the other hand we have a totaly helthy Noufland/ golend retriver mix that is perfectly helthy! He will be turning 15 new years eve and then we also have a 3 year old sheltie...
thats pretty cool my cocker-spaniel has been living for 14 years my parents got him a year after i was born so me and my dog are pretty close. cool dog also
aw how cute :) my sheltie lived until she was 16. she looked a lot like your guy, but she definately had cancer and was skinny towards the end of her life. we unfortunately were not as good about only feeding her dog food, but we only gave her healthy human scraps... my brother always mocked me for eating things that i wouldn't dare give my dog.

When I get a sheltie (a few months from now), I will give it a good diet and let it have its excercise. I don't want my Sheltie to die earlier.
