Tribute to Kim Murnyack

Kimberly S Murnyack
2/12/1973 – 11/11/2023
High Caliber Shilohs

The very sudden and tragic loss of one of our own ….

Kim Murnyack was a very giving person, and you could always count on her to help with whatever she could. She was especially fond of dogs and was a long and dedicated breeder of Shiloh Shepherds. Moose was Kim’s first Shiloh followed quickly by her foundation girls, Terra and Kiana. In 2010 High Caliber Shilohs was founded with the arrival of her first litter.

Kim was a long-term and dedicated member of the ISSDC, first joining the club in 2009 (14 yrs). She was very active in showing her Shilohs, earning multiple annual awards. Kim and High Caliber Shilohs brought home their first National Select in 2009. Between 2009 and 2018 they were awarded multiple Puppies of the Year, National Selects and even Grand Victor. A dedicated club member and passionate about showing, Kim served on the Show Committee and tirelessly managed the Club WinSheet tallies for annual awards and championships for the last 12 years.

She will be remembered for so many things, including her kindness, her love of dogs, and her lasting impact she made in the Shiloh Shepherd breed.
