The Shiloh Breed Ambassador Tests were developed to allow more titling opportunities for the Shiloh community. By completing the Shiloh Breed Ambassador Testing levels, breeders and owners alike have the ability to prove their Shilohs are temperamentally sound and well-educated citizens. Further assuring we push as a community to motivate/support representatives of the Shiloh  Shepherd breed!
