If you cancel a scheduled trial you still owe the $5.50, but if you postpone it the $5.50 carries over. We’ll send around a form for you to use to calculate a trial’s fee; it will include the address to send the funds to. If you have any questions about this let me know. Spring is finally here and I hope you are all enjoying your dogs and our sport. LV Board. The new officers have taken office—you can get contact information at http://dvg-america.com/contacts.html. Notice that all the national officers now have fastmail addresses that reflect their positions, such as dvgamericanprez@fastmail.com. Fastmail is a more secure system than gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, and other popular email systems. We will transfer the emails to new officers after future elections, so you won’t have to keep learning new emails. Bylaws. More bylaw changes are coming. When we did the major overhaul of the bylaws a few years ago, we didn’t do the disciplinary section, although it desperately needed it. We finally have a new draft of this section, and you’ll be seeing it soon to vote on. This is an important provision so please think about the draft and send us any ideas you have for improvements. Website. By now hopefully most of you have seen the new look of the DVG website, at dvg-america.com. Shelly did a lot of work moving everything over. It’s a big job moving all that information (and she does this as a volunteer), and it’s possible she missed some topics or links. If you see a problem, please help us by letting Shelly know the specifics. webadministration@dvg-america.com New sports. Germany is offering some new sports as part of the DVG program, and I thought you might be interested in two of them – Mantrailing and Search and Rescue (SAR). Hartmut will tell you more about them in his LRO’s report. We should be able to offer mantrailing soon; SAR is a bit further away because of the complexity of the test. Germany has always offered other sports besides IPO, in fact DVG’s biggest sport overall is agility. We could offer more sports here but it would take significant interest on the part of the membership. Trial fees. Recently the Board voted to pass on to the clubs the trial fees that Germany imposes on us, starting June 1. Most organizations that I know of charge clubs a small amount to put on a trial. For example, American Working Malinois Association charges $5 a competitor. USCA charges $4 for members and $29 for non-members. I’m a UKC obedience judge and UKC charges a few dollars per entry, too. These fees are not something that’s going into the LV’s treasury. They are passed on to DVG Germany. Some of the money stays with DVG and a small portion is sent on the VDH, the German Kennel Club and DVG’s parent. We’ll change the rate once a year, to adjust to the exchange rate. This year the rate will be $5.50 for each day of the trial FCI rule changes. We’ve been hearing about major changes to the FCI rules for several years. The newest estimate of when they will be released is 2018.

A Journey with Delta Schutzhund Club Photos by Rawi Vaz, Lisa Alvis, & Vee By Robert Fortune Jerol Skinner Prentice Kidd Bobby Holley,Jani Turkia, Prentice Kidd The original intent of this article was to share a single event in our club, a "helper" seminar. After further consideration, we decided to also include some of our accomplishments. By writing about some of our milestones, we hope others will be inspired as they continue along their Schutzhund journey. In late February, our club had the privilege of hosting a two-day “helper” seminar; it was our second in two years. The main instructor for both was Jani Turkia. For the second seminar, Jason Murphy and Jerol Skinner assisted. Together the three instructors worked well and successfully established an environment that was safe and conducive for learning. In addition to the ten seminar participants, we had several people who brought dogs out to work. And for this we are very appreciative. Having a variety of dogs for the seminar participants to work provided them with the ability to be matched with the appropriate level dog for their level of certification. Upon completion of the seminar, Bobby Holley was certified as a level 3 and Prentice Kidd moved up to a level 2. Congratulations to you both! One of the best aspects about a “helper” seminar is the communing with other IPO people. We are each drawn to this sport for reasons many of those outside of schutzhund don’t quite understand; however, we understand. The “helper” seminar gives us like-minded people an opportunity to gather, socialize, and to get to know one another. During this seminar, we couldn’t have asked for more perfect weather or a better grill master – thank you Larry Kye for keeping everyone well fed! And now for a bit about us... Delta Schutzhund Club was founded in 2010 with five members and by the end of 2015 grew to the largest club in the MWKG with twenty nine members. The club’s first members were true novices, with only one year of Schutzhund experience each, but we were determined to make the club a success; most of our success has been through pure perseverance. We have been fortunate to have attracted like-minded people to our club who Lorelei Sims support each other to succeed; this atmosphere has manifested into several accomplishments. In five years our club members have titled four IPO 3 dogs, two IPO 2 dogs, two IPO 1 dogs, and twenty- one Bh titles. As hobbyist and novices, titling dogs was driven by our passion for the sport. Our desire to learn and grow shielded us from feeling intimidated when exposed to those more experienced in IPO. There wasn’t a question we wouldn’t ask or a topic we wouldn’t research. And there still isn’t. In 2011, our youngest member and her dog ‘Ginger’ placed second as an IPO 2 at the DVG nationals; she was fourteen at the time and the youngest competitor. Also in that same year, another founding member and his dog ‘Hector’ placed fifth as an IPO 1. In 2012, this same member and ‘Hector’ competed as an IPO 3 and met their personal goal of passing all three phases. Competing at this level within the first two years of establishing the club was a huge milestone for its members. As the club grew so did our accomplishments. In 2014, one member won the IPO 3 and IPO 2 at the MWKG regionals. More recently, a member won the DVG nationals as an IPO 1. Also, along our club’s journey, five members certified as DVG “helpers” and five members certified as DVG training directors. Since our conception, we have hosted a trial every year Jerol Skinner and for most years, have hosted two trials. The foundation of our club’s accomplishments is our motivated members who are dedicated and willing to work hard. I believe our club’s journey to be special. We are not professionals of the sport. We are simply students of the sport. Our dogs are also unique in that they are our pets and companions first; IPO competitors second. Our members are successful because they share their passion for the sport with their dog and set realistic goals. By treating our dogs with love and respect, the John Dunn dogs look forward to training and are eager to learn. Delta Schutzhund Club’s journey is and has been a positive Prentice Kidd one. Enjoying our dogs and enjoying the sport is our main priority.

These two rocked the house. can’t wait for our next one. perfect day for a trial in Lincoln, Nebraska, and a perfect day it turned out to be. The weather could not have been more cooperative with a little dew for early morning tracking, and nice warm sun for obedience and protection. It was a good time had by all, and by all, I mean ALL!! T WAS A Watch out, cause Elvis has not “left the building”! Paul and Justice started out rough, with a not so easy track, but finished with some amazing obedience and protection routines. These two IPO 1s will be running neck and neck in the future. Ann and Raj joined us with their TR 2 title! Ann has done one outstanding job with Raj, and this team was meant to be. Charlie put some heart and soul into two IPO 3 titles with Egar and Walker. Until you have shown two dogs in the same trial, there is no way to explain the stress involved!! He showed us again how it is done, and done with a smile and love of the sport!! Akin’s helper work with the IPO 1s was his usual flawless style. He flows with the dogs and makes it look so easy, we are very fortunate to have him with us! Paul’s helper Continued next page 13 work with the IPO 3s was outstanding!! Did I mention, this was his first trial in the books? Well, even the pros in the audience did not know that! Paul is a true asset to the club and gives it his all every time he steps on to the field. Hats off to both of you! We are ever so grateful to have to had Ann Dolan as our Judge. Always a pleasure to be around and her knowledge, helpful, and encouraging critiques are what makes this sport!

Most of us are confined to cramped quarters indoors or barely able to move in layers of winter clothing on snow covered fields for months. For many years I have had the good fortune and opportunity to journey to Florida in January to train with Schutzhund pioneer Gottfried Dildei, and many years our training culminates with a DVG trial. This past January our training and trial was held at the field of longtime Schutzhund friend, competitor, Rottweiler breeder and DVG judge, Amanda Hoskinson. Amanda graciously allowed us the use of her field and equipment and was instrumental in assisting me with the long range logistics of hosting a trial 1400 miles away from home. We could not have hosted this trial without her help and generosity. With a field of entries consisting of three BH dogs, four IPO 1s, two IPO 2s and two IPO 3s we were looking forward to a fun weekend and with Melissa Hepler judging we knew it would be educational as well! We began on Saturday morning with tracking. After two days of torrential rain we weren’t sure what condition our Zellwood dirt would be in. As it turned out most of the field was fairly dry with only a few boot-sucking steps of mud to slow some of us down. I think Emie Franck had the worst of it with one of her shepherds, but all of the IPO dogs passed – four IPO 1s - Emie with two GSDs, Garon (86) and Vandal (83), Carl Smith with his gorgeous male GSD, LB (also known as Lover Boy) (96 and High Tracking), and Ben Julich with Angel (vom Haus Franck)(72). Our two IPO 2’s were handled by Jill Doherty – littermates of her own breeding – Ikon (88) and Ixena (91) and our two IPO 3’s Martha Chamberlin with Beth Whitcomb’s stunning male, Jaeger (86) and Carl Smith & Lover Boy IPO 3s, Martha Chamberlin with Beth Whitcomb’s stunning male, Jaeger (86) and Helen Tyler with her malinois bitch, Bristol (88). A short break for a hearty breakfast at Mary’s Country Kitchen and then back to the sunny field in Groveland where we began with the BHs. We started off the obedience phase with my overly social male Rottie, Tyr, who was paired with Monica Patty’s spirited Czechoslovakian Shepherd bitch, Gracie. The heat was somewhat of a factor but both dogs turned in worthy performances with an occasional outstanding moment. This pairing was followed by Jessie Sharp with another lively vom Haus Franck Shepherd bitch, Willow, paired with “honor dog”, Monica Patty’s retired male, Falcon. All three BHs passed and were permitted to move ahead to the traffic portion. Huge sighs of relief! At this point the sun really began to heat up the field! The IPO 1 entries found Ben’s Angel (74) paired with Emie’s Vandal (71) with nice attentive heeling for both but a few blips here and there. It was nice to hear Judge Melissa Hepler’s critique include praise for the happy dogs. The second pairing saw Carl’s LB (88) paired with Emie’s second male, Garon (64). Again some very nice parts to both routines but some fumbling with the retrieves and the send out, points lost and new issues to iron out for next time. The IPO 2s and 3s were paired together as Jill had the two 2’s. We first watched Ixena turn in a lovely performance (90 points and High Obedience) and Martha (IPO 3) with Jaeger (87). So fun to see the relationships Jill has with her dogs and the critiques rewarded the positive behavior. Martha and Jaeger had a very nice routine but Jaeger hit the jump with one of his back feet which made him a bit “off” from that point onward. For an eight year old Nationals veteran he did an outstanding job and showed true heart though-out. The final pairing of the day was Jill’s IPO 2 male, Ikon (87) with Helen’s, Bristol (75). We then took a short break before our three BH entries sailed through the traffic portion with no issues and yahoo – congratulations to out three new BH dogs! With two phases passed for all of the IPO dogs we then headed off for a yummy Italian dinner at Goomba’s and a good night’s sleep for handlers and their team mates. Sunday morning dawned with temperatures a bit cooler and some cloud cover for Protection. We met on the field for a quick handler’s meeting with our judge and the final phase then began. Now, this is the place where I ask for forgiveness because my notes of the Protection phase are spotty and my memory is even worse. I can generalize and tell you there were plenty of “young dog” moments for the IPO 1s and 2s but you will just be getting scores here with not many specific details. Unfortunately our first young dog, Ben’s extremely spirited and enthusiastic bitch, Angel, decided early in the routine that she was having way too much fun and listening to Ben’s commands required too much effort – after the blind search and the call out from the hold and bark this team needed to be dismissed. This young girl shows a lot of promise and I am sure we will see her out on the competition field again in no time! Emie then followed with her two beautiful males, Vandal turned in an 88 point performance and Garon bested him with 90 points! Carl and LB then Continued page 21 17 n Hoskinso Amanda o & Mondr Thanks go to Maurice Brown for the photos!

Our IPO 3 entries then took to the trial field. Helen and her feisty Mal, Bristol, gave us an entertaining 85 point routine and Martha with our eight year old veteran, Jaeger, showed us a smooth 90 point routine. So – over all a very nice trial with Carl and LB taking High Tracking, High Protection and High in Trial with 278 points total. Jill and Ixena taking High Obedience and 2nd place overall with 265 points. Martha and Jaeger close behind, taking 3rd place overall with 263 points. Thanks are in order to Curtis Brantley for some fine protection helper work. The Southern clubs are fortunate to have some excellent helpers and we were grateful to have Curtis available to work this trial. Also a huge thank you to Melissa Hepler for thoughtful and detailed, instructional critiques. Her knowledge of the rules is exceptional. With her relaxed and jovial attitude she also did an excellent job of making handlers feel calmer and more confident out on the field. Having a judge who is still actively trialing is a huge plus in my opinion and it showed in the helpful, knowledgeable judging. Thank you, Melissa – hopefully we can get you up to New Hampshire again at some point! And this trial would not have been possible without the generosity of our gracious host, Amanda Hoskinson. She provided her beautiful training field and equipment for obedience and protection, helped me with every step of the organization and execution of the trial, hosted the judge, and made it possible for our New England club to enjoy a respite from the winter weather. Amanda is one of the most hardworking people I have seen in this sport and her support to me personally has been invaluable. Lastly a shout-out to Gottfried Dildei for his amazing training prior to the trial. Even after almost eighteen years in this sport I always find new things to work on with his method. We are so fortunate to have him here in this country and as one of the most experienced trainers in the world I try to pick his brain every opportunity I can! Thank you, as well, to our hardworking handlers and their amazing team mates – this sport would not be possible without your dedication and devotion to your dogs. For every disappointment may you find fifty rewarding moments to make up for it! See you out there on the competition field. 21 Coast Schutzhund Club, est 1984.
