  • Saturday, July 14
  • Sieger show
  • Marymoor Park: 6046 West Lake Sammamish Parkway Northeast, Redmond, WA, USA (MAP)
  • Make sure to clear your calendars, we are going to have a wonderful European type Sieger show at Marymoor State Park.  Long time Berner Fancier, breeder and most certainly breed mentor, Margie Reho will be judging for us.  Each entrant will be given a written critique as well as a verbal overview of the dog. This is more along the lines of a European show and should be not only interesting but an opportunity to learn from someone very knowledgeable and very experienced in this breed. We are very pleased to have Margie agree to judge this event and hope you will attend it. To top off the weekend, we have booked Margie to hold her presentation on “Understanding Movement” on Sunday and if you haven’t had a chance to see this at the Berner University during the national specialties then this is a great opportunity to see it now. Both events will be held in Redmond and the premium list and details will be posted on our website soon.
