WHY:
The International Shiloh Shepherd Dog Club sponsors a booth to promote education and awareness of the Shiloh Shepherd, as well as conduct fundraising for ISSDC programs such as the Shiloh Shepherd Rescue. The ISSDC sponsored a booth at the Pawsabilities event last year as well and it was a wonderful experience.
Our booth will house digital photo displays of our dogs as part of our education program, handouts as well as live Shilohs for the public to meet and interact with! This year the ISSDC will be also be sponsoring two fundraisers to raise money for ISSDC programs — these fund raisers include the Wolf Quilt Raffle and "Unfurgettables" keepsakes (paw prints made in clay). "Unfurgettables" keepsakes is being spearheaded by the ISSDC SE region, show your support and at the same time you can save your beloved pet's pawprint forever!
