Our members take part in a wide variety of activities, from showing, to herding, to obedience, agility, schutzhund, therapy work , hiking -- and there are even a number of k-9 couch potatoes!

The German Shepherd Dog Club of Oregon holds specialty dog shows, obedience trials, and assorted other events of interest to the membership.

    Good Job and Thank You

    Karen, Ruth, Chris, Jim P, Jim B, Don, Patty, Barb, Connie, Kevin, Rick, Cynthia, Kristina, Jo, Kathy, Randy, Terry, Sally, Betty, Shar and everyone else who pitched in to make the shows and trials successful.

    Weeks of rain and miserable conditions - but we made the back-to-back weekends run smoothly and had lots of successful entries, new titles, points, legs and even had some new comers try the sport.

    And THANK YOU to everyone who entered. We can't have a show without you.
