​Shetland sheep are fine boned and small in size. Rams weigh 90–125 pounds, and ewes weigh 75–100 pounds. Shetland sheep are calm and charming in disposition, docile, and intelligent.


​​The Shetland breed is especially prized for its wool, fleeces average two to four pounds.

​
The North American Shetland Sheep breeders Association was formed in 1994 to promote the breed and to support the growing number of Shetland breeders in North America. The Shetland breed has prospered in recent years to the extent that it is no longer considered endangered.
