Du Fief Des Petits Crunchis Shetland Sheepdog

Shetland Sheepdog

Family breeding facility specialized in working Shetland Sheepdogs for 15 years. Located in the heart of the Haute-Saône countryside (France), we raise a limited number of puppies per year to give absolute attention to every single litter. Our goal: breeding healthy, highly balanced, responsive dogs with an intense drive for work.

Healthy & Rigorously Health-Tested Dogs

In addition to adhering to the breed standard, health is our top priority. 100% of our breeding stock is fully screened and clear for all genetic diseases affecting the breed:

• CEA (Collie Eye Anomaly)

• PRA (Progressive Retinal Atrophy)

• MDR1 (Multi-Drug Resistance)

• DM (Degenerative Myelopathy)

• vWDIII (Von Willebrand Disease Type III)

• DMS (Dermatomyositis)

No kennels or crates here: our dogs live alongside us and share our everyday life. From an early age, our puppies benefit from a rich outdoor enrichment program:

• Livestock & animal exposure: Safe contact with chickens, rabbits, sheep, and cattle from neighboring farms, as well as our own flock of sheep.

• Comprehensive habituation: Daily handling, household noises, interaction with children, and car rides.

🏆 100% Sports Homes | 90% Agility & World-Class Level

Our selection focus on temperament and will to please makes all the difference on the course:

• 100% of our puppies join active and sports-oriented homes.

• 90% of them compete on Agility courses!

• From local agility clubs to the prestigious international stages (European Open - EO, Agility World Championship - AWC), seeing our "Crunchis" shine alongside their handlers worldwide is our greatest pride 🌍✨.

✈ International Shipping & Export Expertise

Our breeding reputation extends well beyond borders: we manage the entire health and administrative export protocol (care and housing up to 15 weeks for mandatory rabies vaccination) to support buyers worldwide.
