The Chicagoland Shetland Sheepdog Club was organized almost 50 years ago and in corporated in April of 1963. The purpose of the club is to improve the breed and to further the education of breeders and 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. While most members are active in Conformation, Obedience, Agility, Herding, Tracking & Therapy dogs, we do have members who have Shelties as pets or do not even own Shelties but love the breed and want to learn more. The Chicagoland Shetland Sheepdog Club holds meetings about seven time a year currently and sometimes these meetings are in conjunction with a special function, such as our June picnic/merit awards meeting and our December Christmas meeting. Our club has two back to back Specialties each year in February and this year we will have yet another NEW location! We cordially invite you to attend. We have vender booths, a fantastic raffle, and a huge luncheon. If you have any further questions or comments please contact the Recording Secretary who will direct your questions or comments to the right party. Our current Corresponding Secretary is Karen Ferraro, dgioshelties@aol.com
