Could someone tell me what differences between the SVV title and a Schutzhund title. Thanks

The ZVV/SVV title system is a utility dog system heralding from the Czech and Slovak countries. More realistic and demanding on all levels as compared to the thousands of dog's that acquire a SchH3. Only 3 to 5 dog's yearly attain the ZVV3 title. This title includes long, detailed tracking phases, full obedience and extensive protection on and off leash.
Overall, the German SchH title (based on obedience/tracking/protection) is generally compairable to the SVV title, just the SVV is believed to be a little more demanding and difficult in its expectations than SchH.

This describes the ZVV3 title, yes that is much more challenging than SchH3 and only a few dogs a year achieve it each year. Whether or not the ZVV1 title is more difficult than the SchH1 title is arguable, they are very similar. I believe there is more of a difference between each level of the ZVV title than between each level of the SchH title...certainly in regards to ZVV1 to ZVV3 versus SchH1 to SchH3.
Here are links explaining the ZVV1 and ZVV2 titles from Eurosports website
It doesn't specify but I think some of the bitework is done on a bitesuit instead of a sleeve...could just be in the ZVV3, I could be wrong about that though.

Oh ZVV and SVV are the same (exactly the same I believe) one is a Slovak title the other is a Czech title

I've compared some of the differences in an incomplete side project. Very similar to SchH but a little tougher in most ways, with longer distances, shorter time limits, older tracks, greater number of blinds. You can see the scoreing at this link: http://www.schraderhausk9.com/SVV.htm
