We are Stephen and Audrey Lyke, owners of Festival Appenzellers. We have been ambassadors to the Appenzeller breed since 1995, when we got our first Appenzeller, Spirit. Audrey was President of the Appenzell Mountain Dog Club of America from 2003 – 2008. During her tenure, the Appenzeller was admitted to AKC Performance Events and Companion Events.
Our original Appenzellers, Blackberry Noble Spirit and Glenn vom Schwarzwaldblick, were best of breed at the American Rare Breed Association, Canine Kennel Club, and United Kennel Club. Highleigh Brandy is mastering the various obstacles and course patterns in Agility.
All our dogs are health-tested. They live in our home. Whatever their other talents, they are companions and family first. We are conveniently located near Baltimore and Philadelphia. Contact us at info@festivalappenzellers.com or 302.547.4633.
