When do you take a Sheltie out as an adult?
If you have a sheltie puppy, take him out after he wakes up, eats, or drinks water. You should also let him eliminate before he goes to bed and whenever you let him out of the crate. Adult dogs do not need to go out as frequently as puppies, but should still be on a set schedule. For example, take your adult sheltie out after each meal.
