What a beautiful day in Hampshire, Illinois!
We held the Lake Shore Greater Swiss Mountain Dog Club AHBA Herding test on
Saturday, July 30, 2005.
Our test was held at the farm of our judges, Sean and Sharol Hathaway.
7 Swissies earned their HCT title, and 2 earned their JHD title. Even the
two old girls did well! Pictures are listed under the title earned/attempted.
