Alberta Kennel Club Show Grounds

1/2 Hour After Best in Show


In order to ensure receiving "hand-outs"

Please contact Judy Hunt, huntcj@telus.net if you will be attending


The CISC is hosting a four day Iceland Sheepdog Breed Event at the Alberta Kennel Club August 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th, 2007 shows. They have ISD's coming from across Eastern and Western Canada, as well as from across the U.S. including breeders and CISC members from as far as California, USA.
If everyone is able to come that has said they will, they expect a turn out between 30 to 40 ISD. The largest Gathering in N.A. History to date.

The CISC feels that this would be a great opportunity to present the breed to the judges in Southern Alberta.

The CISC hosted a Iceland Sheepdog seminar last year, with Jill Fike (Pineridge Kennels, in B.C.) This year, Valerie Sharp (Greenstone Kennel) hosted a seminar for the Iceland Sheepdog in Ontario,.


The whole CISC board will be coming from across Canada, with the top CKC Show ISD's for the national booster, CGN Test and Gathering.


They have a full breed standard with drawings that is copyrighted to the CISC, and are interested in providing copies to all interested participants.

They would be honoured if you or anyone else would like to come to the CISC Gathering at the AKC show to meet their dogs.


If anyone would like a Icelandic Sheepdog Seminar done for their area of Canada, Please let the CISC know and we would be happy to work with you to have one hosted in your area.
