come check out…

the 38th annual wwsda midwest championship sheepdog trial

Thurs., Aug 29th-Mon., Sep 2nd 2024

Come watch the country's wisest dogs and wiliest handlers compete for the coveted Midwest Sheepdog Championship at Badlands Sno-Park outside of Hudson, WI. Bring a lawn chair and loll on a sun-drenched hillside, watching dogs and handlers compete under time pressure to move sheep through a complicated course. Gather under a big, shady tent, rain or shine. Never been to a sheepdog competition? Don't worry, during the action announcers will explain what's going on, along with the subtleties of communication between dogs, handlers, and sheep. Bring the entire family and friends and make a day of it, cheering for your favorite dogs and groaning as a recalcitrant sheep escapes at the pen at the last second.

Please plan on attending this awesome event and invite friends and neighbors. They'll be glad you did.   It's a great family event. Bring your own comfortable chair or sit on the bleachers provided. The trials go on rain or shine but spectators can get out of both under the big top tent. Lunch food and drink will be available for purchase.

Gate admission is $12/person cash . Children 10 & under are free.
