Andy was also a tri-color Sheltie and he would do that if he heard the word "school" because there was a nearby grade-school campus where we would chase each other. One time when the place was covered in snow, he was chasing me and got stuck in a deep drift. I had to run back to free him when I noticed he wasn't right at my heels. He was undaunted and ran, looking behind at times to make sure I was chasing him. It was his absolute favorite thing to do. Shelties are the best dogs and the best friends, IMHO.
