The Heritage Center and other news

In recent weeks we have improved the premises of the Heritage Center. We had to panel the ceiling and varnish the floor. To do this we took down the exhibition and set it up again as soon as everything was ready.

Now we have also added two languages for the information panels. It is possible to scan QR codes on the panels and read the texts in German or French. We have the option to add as many languages as we want, but for that we need to translate the texts. Something we can do over time.

A thirty-person group visited us a week ago and some were taking advantage of the German translation.

On February 8th I held an webinar about the history of the Icelandic dog at the request of ISIC and about 110 people followed it. As far as I know, a recording of the lecture is to be made available on ISIC's website.

Now in February we received four-page coverage in a German magazine, published by IPZV. You can read it here (in German for those who understand it).

Work on the project "Colors of the Icelandic Sheepdog" has also begun. Last weekend we took pictures of 23 dogs and photographer Carolin Giese/LinaImages is now working on the images. More photo sessions will take place soon. Programming of the database has also begun.

It is so enjoyable to work on all these projects for the benefit of our national dog, to meet and get to know people and dogs.
