Fastest Shetland Sheepdogs — Fast CAT Speed Rankings (2026)

Woodruff Fortissimo Grande is the Shetland Sheepdog to beat this season: 27.20 mph, 100 yards in 7.52 seconds, already past last year's 27.00 mph best, narrowly ahead of Kleimans Beaux Of My Heart (0.09 mph). 291 Shetland Sheepdogs are ranked so far. Line the breeds up by their fastest dog and the Shetland Sheepdog lands 82nd out of 251. Across the top 10, it's 26.0 mph on average — and there's still time for someone to crash the party. A few Dash-Hound regulars made the cut as well: Beaux (2nd) and Ajin (21st).
