HELLO!
We have been busy this spring, travelling to both ends of the country: From New York City to Del Mar, California for two large events in which Alpen Schatz was invited to participate. We have uploaded pictures from each event for you to enjoy!
THE WESTMINSTER DOG SHOW: NYC
The first event honored us in inviting Alpen Schatz to have a booth at one of the world's most renowned dog shows: The Westminster Dog Show in New York City, which took place over Valentine's weekend in February.
We brought with us our full Swiss and German HUNTER lines of pet products which were wonderfully received at the show. We were the first booth to open and the last to close over a five day period...did not get much sleep, however met many wonderful dog lovers and their dogs from all over the world. In all it was great fun and a successful event for us. We look forward to next year already!
THE BERNESE NATIONAL SPECIALTY SHOW: DEL MAR, CA 
The second large event was the National Bernese Mountain Dog Specialty, which took place in Del Mar, California this year. Once again, we had a great show, saw many of our old friends in the Berner world and Smokie Bear and Valentino with their Colorado freind Hagen, got to play on the beautiful California beaches! Many Bernese got their new Alpen Schatz collars or carting harnesses, and their owners got alpine hats and/or jewelry to accompany the "Swiss" look of their dogs. The event takes place over a full week and fun was had by all.
Go to BMDCA 2011 NATIONAL SPECIALTY to see a summary of pictures we took at the event.
ENJOY!!!
Mary Dawn DeBriae and the Alpen Schatzi's!
