ISDS

• 01490 - Raising of other animals

The International Sheep Dog Society (ISDS) was founded in 1906 with the intention of stimulating interest in the shepherd, the shepherd's calling and to secure the better management of stock by improving the shepherd's dog... The International Sheep Dog Society is a Registered Charity (No. 209009) and its activities strictly accord with UK Charity Regulation. The structure and management has developed since its formation in 1906, but today's structure is not dissimilar from that in place 50 years ago... In 1873 the first recorded sheep dog trials were held in Bala, North Wales, but it was not until some 33 years later that The International Sheep Dog Society (ISDS) was formed, following a meeting of English and Scottish sheep-men in 1906. Shortly afterwards the first International Trials were held in Gullane, Scotland and, except during the war years and pandemic, have continued to be an annual event.
