Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Lakeshire Shelties located in New York. We raise our dogs with love in our home. We have high expectations for our pups and strive to put each one into a loving family. In order to start our puppies off on the right paw, we begin training and socializing at a young age so they are set up for success in their new homes. We prioritize the health and well-being of each one of our puppies and follow all appropriate puppy health protocols.
