The Wisconsin Working Stock Dog Association (or WWSDA) came into existence over 20 years ago when a group of people in Wisconsin got together to learn how to train their working dogs, and do a better job of working them on their livestock at home. As the club has grown, so have people's interests. Some have their stock dogs for recreation, some for competition, and some for help on the farm. Whatever your interest, the WWSDA's focus is to educate and help you to improve at what you do. This site is for use by the Wisconsin Working Stock Dog Association and its advertising members.
