Paula Webber lives on Vancouver Island with her husband and two Appenzellers, Hektor and Bri. Her love affair with this amazing breed began 20 years ago when the couple lived in a small community in northern Canada. They acquired their first Appenzeller as a companion to their Bernese Mountain Dog. Paula quickly discovered the Appenzeller was nothing like their placid and gentle Berner. This tenacious and driven little Appenzeller introduced her to the world of competitive dog sports. Since that time, it has been Paula’s mission to make this rare breed more widely known in North America. Her current male is the first Appenzeller Sennenhund to earn an AKC Certificate of Merit. Both of her dogs have earned numerous performance titles in both Canada and the US. Paula has been involved with the Appenzell Mountain Dog Club of America for a number of years and is a member of the current Executive Board.
The Appenzeller Sennenhund is a rare Swiss breed known for herding, guarding, and agility – best suited for experienced dog owners.
