Huld, full official name Kersins Huld, came from Kersins Kennel in Iceland and was my first Icelandic Sheepdog. Helga Gústavsdóttir (helga@midengi.is) is her breeder.
She is THE alpha dog in a house full of alpha dogs.This morning she alerted us to the presence of a Great Blue Heron in our goldfish pond. She's busy all the time guarding our home from hawks, herons, turkey vulture and jumbo jets at 30,000 feet.
It's hard work but, in addition, she also has to keep the other Icelandics in line and is the official greeter to house guests.
She is unofficially semi-retired but very active. She has earned her CD, Companion Dog, title from the AKC as well as her RN, Rally Novice, title. She loves going to classes at our AKC affiliated obedience club, the Sportsmens Dog Training Club of Detroit ( http://www.sportsmens.net/ ).
