Our love for Old English Sheepdogs began in 1980, when our daughter Christine URGENTLY wanted such a teddy bear. As Vreni was born and brought up in England it was clear, that we would look for our dream-dog in England. We found Jenny at the kennel "Raydor" held by the family Boyce.

During the first meeting of the Swiss Bobtail Club we got to know the owner of an English dog and then a doggish love between our dogs started.

But first we had to do our first steps in the show ring. The first litter was born 22.7.83. That means that the kennel "of Roseville" could celebrate it's 20th anniversary in 2003. 18litters have been brought up in the meantime - the first undocked one in 1989 - and we must confess: The Bobtail-virus is still going strong!

We are enthusiastic regarding exhibitions and have made many friends at those occasions in and out of Europe.

For us it is of great importance that the puppies are well prepared for life and we do our best to find appropriate owners.

During the weeks when we are raising a litter, on a Sunday afternoon we have an "open house". People interested and of course the future puppy-owners can come and we always have a great time together. This way many a friendship has started.
