Has anyone trained to this title, or has real knowlege of what it is, and what it takes? Is it even still offered, in fact, has it ever been offered in North America? Can anyone direct me to sources of information on the FH3? Thanks.

I have never heard of an FH3 however there is an IPO FH which is two FH2s done on separate days you have to pass both tracks to pass that

we will be offering those at this years USA GSD championships

Thanks, Jeff. I wonder if the title was just given to DDR dogs of that era. For example, http://www.pedigreedatabase.com/gsd/pedigree/66829.html

Lord, of course, was also FH3.

And thanks for the heads up on the IPO FH. The odds get much tougher if you have to do the FH2 back to back, I'm sure. I wonder if that's what the FH3 was (or is). I recall someone saying years ago that he thought the FH3 was a V rated FH2, but I could never confirm that.

I will call Al later tonight... if there is anyone that would know it would be him

I was kinda wondering that as well I really cant imagine bigger tracks than the FH'2's I saw in france, My camera has an 800mm lens on it and that really was'nt enough lens...They were HUGE.

The FH1, 2, 3 were given to dogs in the DDR (East Germany). They were basically like a SchH trial, with all three phases (tracking, obedience, protection), but more emphasis on the tracking. Somewhere I have a trial book from the DDR that gives all the particulars. Lots of legs and corners, cross tracks and so on, also I think the track was aged at least two hours. I believe that my bitch Trina vom Trappenberg was an FH3, but I'd have to check.. It's been so long, now. She did have 100 pts in tracking. I remember that.

There were also PSH trials, levels 1, 2, 3. One male I had was SchH3, FH1, PSH3. That was Roy von der Müritz. He was a super dog!

These tests and titles are not given, anymore.

Oh.. PSH was PolizeiHund.. police dog.
