About the Chicagoland Shetland
Sheepdog Club
The Chicagoland Shetland Sheepdog Club, Inc. was
organized over 45 years ago and incorporated in April of 1963. The
purpose of the club is to improve the breed and to further the education
of breeders and of the general public. We continue to strive for
excellence by presenting educational programs at meetings and holding
seminars. We also do fundraising so we can contribute to charitable dog
organizations (i.e., Sheltie rescue, disaster relief, DNA research,
etc.).
Our members are mostly from the northern part of Illinois (with
membership stretching from Chicago to Rockford and beyond) and the
southeastern part of Wisconsin. While most of our members are active in
Conformation, Obedience, Agility, Herding, Rally & Tracking, we do have members
who have Shelties as pets or do not own any Shelties but love the breed
and come to learn more.
The Chicagoland Shetland Sheepdog Club holds meetings approximately 7 times
during the year and sometimes these meetings are in conjunction with a
special function, such as our picnic meeting and our December
Christmas party meeting. A schedule of our upcoming meetings can be
found on our
Meetings page.
