🇨🇭A Message from the National Specialty Committee 🇨🇭:

For those that aren't already aware: The 2026 Greater Swiss Mountain Dog Club of America National Specialty will be held in Boise, ID from October 4 through 11, 2026. We invite Swissy enthusiasts from across the country to be part of this special week.

This National Specialty features AKC conformation, Obedience, Rally, Drafting, Farm Dog, and other working and performance events, along with social gatherings that celebrate our shared love of the breed. Whether you plan to attend in person or support from afar, your involvement truly matters.

We recognize so many of you have shown your generosity of time by serving and planning in addition to donating to our events/activities. If you haven't seen the list of sponsorship yet or wondered if it would be too late to support the National Specialty it would mean so much to us as we continue to seek sponsors for trophies, ribbons, and special events.

Sponsorships are a meaningful way to support the National Specialty and help carry forward a long standing GSMDCA tradition.

Sponsorship values range from $15 to $1,000+. To
