The Shetland Sheepdog.

Shetland Sheepdogs are super athletic little dogs.

I have watched Shetland Sheepdogs make quick work of many agility courses.

Shetland Sheepdogs seem to be one of the breeds most frequently entered in agility competitions and when you see them perform you can understand why.

When you watch a dog compete in agility sometimes everything happens so fast that you can’t really notice the details.

That is one thing I love about capturing the events on camera. It gives me time to see what happens to quickly to really recognize with my naked eye at the time.

Look how far away the Shetland Sheepdog in this photo is when it takes flight to clear the hurdle. It is hard to believe they can jump from so far back and still make it. Especially for such a small dog. But they are amazing athletes.

Photo details: Nikon D500. Nikon 300mm f/4. Focal length 420mm. ISO 400. 1/2000 sec. f/5.6.
