Welty's Shelties

Welty’s Shelties is a Shetland sheepdog breeder in Fillmore, Indiana, Johnson County and the nearby city of Indianapolis. It has been breeding for several years with American Kennel Club registration and routine health screening for hips and eyes. Puppies grow up in a home setting alongside family dogs and children, with early handling to build confidence and social skills. The kennel is set on a small farm where dogs enjoy daily exercise in fenced pastures and comfortable indoor spaces.

Each litter reflects a focus on balanced temperament and sound structure, traits often noted by area families. Owner Roncia Welty provides personal care in matching each puppy to its new home and stays involved as they mature. The breeding philosophy emphasizes gentle handling and structured play to foster well-rounded personalities. Families often comment on the detailed health records and open communication that support a smooth transition to home life.
