Show Scenes
or better known as "See, I can be a show dog!"

Although we didn't bring our Shiloh Shepherd boys into our family to be Show Dogs, we do go to a Rare Breed show or two. We unfortunately don't get to show our dogs as often as we would like but we do try to at least get to our breed club specialities. Below are some photos of our Shilohs showing.

Gareth attained his International Rarities/NAKC Championship at 7 months old with his Grandma Trish Beltz. or Ridgewood Shilohs [P&C/B&T] handling him through his puppyhood. We believe he is the first Shiloh Shepherd smooth coat to achive a title with Rarities. Hamish is breed champion pointed but is no longer being shown, much to his relief.
