Origin of the breed.
The white Swiss shepherd dog was originally from Germany, where Ritmeister Stefanitz mated a white shepherd dog with erect ears, and smooth coat with a shaggy brown dog, carrying the black gene to breed the colored German Shepherd.
Therefore, there have since been born white long-haired white shepherds and our White Swiss Shepherd Dog is a descendant of this first combination.
The way to Denmark in few words!
1974
The first white German shepherd was imported into Denmark
1979
The White German Shepherd Club in Denmark was founded, the original club was erased because of disagreements on restrictions for the breed, to ensure a healthy breed.
1996
The breed was recorded in DKK under the name Becaner. 44 dogs were transfered with X pedigree (Their parents were not transferred).
1997
The breed was named, White Shepherd dog
2003
The breed gets its final name, White Swiss Shepherd. The reason why the Swiss are added is that FCI require a country of origin and it was Switzerland as we believe it was here the first white came to Europe.
Racens oprindelse.
Den hvide Schweiziske hyrdehund stammer oprindeligt fra Tyskland, hvor Ritmeister Stefanitz brugte en hvid hyrdehund med opretstående ører, og glat pels som han parrede med en langhåret brunmeleret hund, bærende det sorte gen, for at fremavle den farvede schæferhund.
Derfor har der siden været født hvide langhåret schæfere, og vores Hvide Schweiziske Hyrdehunde er efterkommer af den første kombination.
Vejen til Danmark i korte træk!
1974
Den første hvide schæferhund importeres til Danmark
1979
Stiftes Hvid schæferhundeklub i Danmark, den oprindelige klub blev splittet pga. uenighed om avlsrestriktioner, for at sikre en sund hunderace.
1996 Racen optages i DKK under navnet Becaner. Der overføres 44 hunde med X stambog (forældredyrene overføres ikke).
1997
Racen får navnet, Hvid hyrdehund
2003
Racen får sit endelige navn, Hvid Schweizisk Hyrdehund. Grunden til at Schweizisk bliver tilføjet er, at FCI kræver et oprindelsesland og det bliver Schweiz, da man mener det var her de første hvide kom til Europa.
