Sch/IPO clubs and training in the tri-state area? by Ren on 26 March 2012 - 03:47 |
| Well I have the wonderful fortune of getting a GSD puppy next month (after quite a while of searching), but I'm still trying to find a good place to start IPO training. I was looking at a lot of clubs, but I'm not entirely sure if every club offers training. A few sites mention use of a training area, but they don't mention courses so I'm really not sure. I am in the process of contacting Hudson Valley Police & Schutzhund Klub (Pine Bush, NY) but I'm still waiting to hear back though its been a few days. Does anyone know if this is still an active club? Many of the other clubs I've found are a great distance away (2 hours or more). or only have classes when I have work. I was wondering if anyone knew either by mouth or website or experience, of good working clubs that offer classes, or even just training classes being offered somewhere in the tri-state area. I'm in Upstate NY in Orange County (Goshen/Montgomery area). Any information is greatly appreciated thanks in advance! |

| Have you tried the UScA website for clubs. Most clubs are just that a club. They meet 1-3 times a week and each member with the assistance of other works on their dog. Sometimes a charge occurs for the helper, mostly just club dues. http://germanshepherddog.com/clubs/index.htm |

| You don't have to be in a club to train in Schutzhund. Beth Bradley is a great trainer...she has also done big trials with her dogs. |
