The GGGSMDC is recognized by the Greater Swiss Mountain Dog Club of America and sanctioned by the American Kennel Club to hold AKC competition events. Our goal is to maintain the quality standards of the breed, educate the public about the breed and to enjoy our working dogs while having fun.

The Club has sponsored AKC specialty conformation shows for the past three years. For those members who prefer not to compete in events with their dogs, the club hosts social events, picnics, workshops and dog walks at the beach or on trails in parks.

A very informative newsletter is published giving information on club activities and articles on Swissies as well as general dog related topics.

If you have a Swissy and would like to become involved in activities with your dog, we invite you to join our club. This will also provide an opportunity to meet other Swissy owners who enjoy their dogs.

Should you wish to become a member of the Swissy Club, please fill out the Membership Application found on the Membership Information Page of this website.
