About Kathryn
Kathryn fell in love with the breed as a child when she saw her first
sheltie at Mount Rushmore. From then on she vowed to have a
sheltie some day. That dream was realized when she acquired her
first sheltie while in graduate school in Dallas. Minos Sweet
Caroline (Caroline) was a retired girl and the dam of one
champion. She helped Kathryn learn to appreciate a truly beautiful
and well-bred sheltie. A marriage, several moves, and raising a
young family kept Kathryn's dreams of becoming active in the breed
at bay for a time, but when daughter Gretchen became interested in
the dog world, pursuing AKC conformation became not only a
dream but a reality and a family hobby as well.
Kathryn is primarily involved in conformation events. She is an
active member of Interlocking Shetland Sheepdog Club of Monee
and is currently serving on the Board of Directors as past president
of the club.
