Simon Mosse

Viola Hebeler

I am a vet for horses and working dogs. As a hobby, I’ve bred sheep and owned Border Collies since 1989. I was German National Champion twice and 3 times Vice Champion. 7 of my dogs qualified over 20 times for the German teams at Continentals or World Trials, 4 went through to Continental finals. I was president of the German ABCD and am now Chair of the Continental Sheepdog Committee. I love training and running my dogs, but I also enjoy judging. I was invited to judge trials in 8 countries, among them 6 Nationals with DG finals. I am honoured to be invited to judge your Nordic Championship.

The Trial

The trial will be held at Hovdala Castle and Eric and Caroline Adsekes sheep.It is a large stock of 475 Gotland-sheep.The trial will be held on ewes on the land of the castle.It is old military ground today own by the community of Hässleholm. It is also a nature reserve.

A beautiful place to be and we are pleased to be able to share this with you.
