Comments about Prestige Lancashire Heelers
Many Talents
Thank you, Sheila, for my first Lancashire Heeler! She is the best little working girl and has excelled in several venues: Rally, Scent Work, Trick Dog, and Conformation, and now moving into Herding! She is totally dedicated to me and is the most joyous when she has a job to do and is working! She is now working at the Advanced Level in Scent Work and has potential for higher levels of Rally, Trick dog, and anything I put before her. It’s just a matter for this owner to move her talent forward.
Sheila has been a source of information and support in my journey in this new breed for me!

Six years ago
Sherlock is 6 years old, and I remember how we were looking for him in 2017.
I wrote more than twenty letters to different LH kennels in Russia, Finland, Norway, Sweden, the UK, and the USA. And luckily, you answered.
I was very surprised at first, as I thought that it’s my privilege as a buyer to ask questions, but you questioned me about our family, our background with dogs, and even asked to show you where Little Mister would live. I remember you told me to put some bars under our fence so that the puppy could not get through it. I seemed to me too much, but now, having puppies, I understand all the responsibility you felt in giving a puppy to another person.
I learned a lot from you: mostly how to be a good breeder. You told me everything about the breed, urged me to make genetic tests to make sure Sherlock is clear.
Sherlock was almost 5 months old when we flew from Russia to the USA to take him home, and I can say that he is the smartest dog I’ve ever seen. This is surely your training that influenced his character.
I want to thank you again for your excellent kennel, your passion for Lancashire Heelers breeding, and for being professional in this very difficult work—to breed healthy and smart puppies to keep up the LH breed at a high level.

Sheila’s there when we need her
We came to Sheila at the recommendation of another breeder that we knew quite well. This was our first experience with Lancashire Heelers, and we arrived to pick up our puppy with very little knowledge about raising our new baby.
In addition to careful breeding and care to the health and well-being of the dogs, Sheila made it clear that she stood by her dogs and would help with advice and encouragement for as long as we had one of her dogs. Our little guy is now 3 1/2 years old, and she is still very interested and available as a resource in what he is doing

Caring and knowledgeable
Sheila of Prestige Kennels is the most health-conscious dog breeder I know.
Her dedication to health testing is unparalleled, and her commitment to the puppies she breeds is for the life of the dog; they can be returned to her at any time and for any reason. Every dog Sheila breeds is fully health tested per the OFA guidelines: genetic testing for Collie Eye Anomaly (CEA), and Primary Lens Luxation (PLL) , a clinical exam for Patellar Luxation (PL), and a current eye exam by a canine ophthalmologist.
Parents are given the utmost care, never overbreeding them or stressing them out by breeding too frequently. Puppies are given superior and expertly handled care and timely exposures (puppy culture) to maximize their abilities and set them up for a healthy, happy, and confident life.
Sheila is experienced and knowledgeable about every aspect of the breeding process and makes a very complicated process with many important steps to monitor look easy.
Thank you, Sheila, for sharing two pieces of your heart with me. The happiness these two beautiful Lancashire Heeler puppies give me each and every day cannot be adequately expressed.

Ready for everything
This is Gambit! He is two years old and the absolute best friend of my family and me! He is Patrick and Vixen‘s pup. Through early socialization and stimulation, Sheila set Gambit (and all his littermates) up for success before they ever left for their forever families!
This little fella is a real go-getter! He never meets a stranger and jumps in with all four feet and his whole heart!
Gambit has introduced me to a whole new world of dog ownership! He and I spend all of our time together. We do nose work, in which he has earned a title. We have done trick dog classes where we earned yet another title. We have played in agility, dock diving, and herding.
We have been consistently showing in conformation for 18 months, and it is by far his absolute favorite activity. He is a conformation champion and well on his way to being a United Kennel Club Grand Champion!
I love this dog! I feel like when I brought him home, I brought home a whole new family! We are in contact with several of his littermates and other relatives of his! Any questions or concerns I have, Shelia is always there to offer her expertise! We are truly so lucky to have a Prestige Lancashire Heeler! Thank you, Sheila!

Great dog
The newest Lancashire Heeler, Justice, has arrived safely here in NJ. It looks like he’s already attached to Mom. He is beautiful. All he wants is attention. He’s perfect for her.
Thanks so very much, Sheila, for allowing him to come live with us. You rock!

Perfect
I must thank her breeder, Sheila Mesick, for this wonderful little gal. I could not have asked for a better pocket-pup to tow around with. I’m totally smitten and amazed with this breed!
Sheila is a fantastic lady and an awesome LH breeder.
A happy owner

Impressed
Sheila cares so much—about her dogs, about her buyers, about the breed, about standards. She is just the sort of breeder to seek, the sort that I respect.
My puppy took Best of Breed in Greeley, Colorado, when he was only nine months old.
Now, he has a half-dozen AKC titles to his name, along with a couple of UKC titles and four NASDA titles.

Easy training
Hey! Everything is going so well! All we do is talk about Emme and the breed. She’s so intelligent and often just does things we show her once or twice. Like if it’s muddy or rainy outside, we wipe her paws at the door. But now she comes in and wipes her own paws on a towel. Haha! And all those smarts make her incredibly clever. She’s such a comedian.
We go to our third of five basic obedience classes tomorrow. She’s done very well in those. All the trainers are smitten by her. I had her pretty well trained with all the basic commands, sit, down, stay, before we started. A lot of the classes are for us, so we know we’re doing the right thing. This place offers all kinds of training, and [her trainers] are already wanting to get her in agility and scent. And that’s the thing—we’ve learned the breed loves it all! She’s been so much fun. Thank you so much for letting us bring her home. She’s spoiled!

Prestige Kimmark Emme Thanksgiving
I just had to write again. Emme’s doing great! We’re making progress on potty training. The snow today is interrupting that, but she’s going to the door and pad more often than not.
You did an excellent job with her—she’s not food aggressive at all, she doesn’t frighten from a vacuum, none of her paws are pulled back when held, I could go on. We’re so impressed.
We’re also impressed with her instinct! She’s definitely a herder, too—she nips ankles and calls out when she runs/zoomies. I can’t tell you how excited I am to train her—she’s very engaged with us.
Emme really takes me back to having a Border. We keep remarking on the breed size, though—they’re the perfect height/length…combined with no fear! I just ordered her some tunnels!
P.S.
We chose Emmeline in part because it means “vigor” and “brave”!
