There are many choices in the Shiloh Shepherd world, including several registries and many breeders. We highly recommend to anyone seriously looking for a shiloh shepherd to take their time and do some research. Purchasing or adopting any dog is a life altering experience and should be treated as such, with much thought and consideration. You are adding a family member to your household, take a little time to find a good fit.

A Shared Vision. A Common Goal.
We choose to be affiliated with The Shiloh Shepherd Registry [TSSR, Inc.], a not-for-profit Shiloh Shepherd specific registry. Working together toward their vision of limiting health and temperament issues through education and the use of temperament and health screenings, the TSSR hopes to continue to make positive strides toward it's breeding goals. In 2006, Heather became more intimately involved with the TSSR organization, as she was asked to serve on their Board of Directors and accepted the honor. We hope we will be able to contribute to their continuing good work.

» Learn more about the TSSR at their website.

Ethical Breeders. Involved Members. Bigger Than Ever.
We also support and participate in the International Shiloh Shepherd Dog Club [ISSDC, Inc.]. We volunteer our services to some committees with the club as time allows. We make it a point to attend our National Specialty as it is always the event to see many shilohs and meet many people — it allows people from all registries to meet, socialize and talk all things shiloh! The National Specialty is usually held in the Spring over Memorial Day weekend.

» Learn more about the club at the ISSDC club website.

ISSDC Member Regions
We are members of the local North East Region of the ISSDC, the ISSDC-NE. Heather is currently working very closely with this region.
