    Nadine, those are two of the most adorable Shelties I;ve ever seen! And how I love their nickname -- "the brownies"! We call Annie Laurie "Little Brown Dog.

    If you get a chance, look on Facebook at The Wonderful Sheltie. There's a delightful Swiss lady, Severine Vicknair, who lives in the US.

    Welcome to Sheltie Nation from Canada
    Wonderful pictures of the brownies, they are very sweet! Looking forward to exchange of ideas and tips about European Agility :D I also do some agility, not competing at any top level just the occasional local trial, etc, but really love the sport. I am a fan of most dogsports may someday explore dock diving, have dabbled a bit in Frisbee and just contemplating a little freestyle routine...
    but all in all I just love spending time with my boys :D whatever we're doing, we love to have fun here at Sheltie Nation, so glad you could join us!
    Welcome to the Brownies from Toffee and Spruce

    Hi and welcome!
    Switzerland is a beautiful country and your dogs are stunning too. Does Chaim have any British breeding behind - he might be distantly related to one of mine? :wink2: Love your photos! :biggrin2:

    I'm hooked on agility too, I've been doing it less than 2 years but hope I'll be doing it forever! Like Toffee's Mom says it will be fun exchanging ideas. One of the best things about agility (I think) is how it is such a global sport. :biggrin2:

    Thanks for all your warm welcomes! It's funny that some people here were in Switzerland. And yes, it is a beautiful country and "never" would go home to Germany.

    I am doing the most time agility, some obedience and other stuff. Calliesmom, I loe sable merles but here inE urope it isn't allowed to breed them. But perhaps I will import sometimes one. But my "heart colour" are the bi blacks but unforunately I had a lot of bad luck with these boys :sadsmile:

    Seashel, here you can find the pedigree of Chaim: http://www.swiss-paws.com/chaim/chaim-pedigree/

    One english sheltie and the american type isn't findabel anymore, haha! How I said… I love the american type but I love heads with "stop" like my Raichu (http://www.swiss-paws.com/raichu/raichu-pedigree/). He has enough bone and a nice muzzle but not too extreme. And he is just 15 months old, think he needs some more time to develop.

    Thank you for posting the pedigrees (a fascination of mine). I see Chaim has two of my favourite international lines (Scotsdream/Grandgables) behind.

    I think Raichu has a lovely expression - both are handsome (and clever) boys!
