About DVG
DVG – Deutscher Verband der Gebrauchshundsportvereine (German organization of working dog sport clubs) is the largest working dog organization in the world. It is also the oldest Schutzhund training organization in the world. It has over 30,000 members participating in many different dog sports. In addition to Schutzhund, DVG in Germany offers agility (its most popular sport), flyball, search and rescue trials, rally obedience, water rescue, obedience, and many other sports. Schutzhund was one of the original DVG sports, and it remains an important part of the organization, even though the number of participants is relatively small. DVG is divided into a number of regions, called Landesverbände (LV). All of the LVs are in Germany, except for LV DVG America, which covers all of North America. The president of LV DVG America is a member of the Board of DVG, and goes to Germany each year to the annual business meeting to vote on Board and membership affairs. Some Landesverbände are further divided into regions called Kreisgruppe (KG). LV DVG America has 4 KGs – West, Midwest, Southeast, and North. DVG is a member of VDH, the German Kennel Club, roughly equivalent to the AKC. In turn, VDH is a member of FCI, the Fédération Cynologique Internationale (World Canine Organization). FCI is the largest canine organization in the world. It includes 92 member clubs and contract partners. Most of these are breed clubs, but there are also a number of working dog organizations. DVG, like many other working dog organizations, follows the rules of the FCI for running its trials and other competitions.

NHC 10th annual trial!!!

God is good is an understatement for what this weekend means to all of us. All our winter training has paid off. Unless you are in the NHC inner circle, it’s hard to fully appreciate what it took to make this trial happen. Against what felt like insurmountable odds, we came together and made it happen, and every single dog that trialed earned their title!

This weekend was truly a team effort, and there are so many people who made it possible.

A heartfelt thank you to our club member and helper, Jovan Djordjevic, who traveled all the way from Chicago to prepare our dogs. Unfortunately, a family emergency forced him to leave before the trial, and we missed him greatly. We hope everything is well and wish he could have been there with us.

Thank you to Wallace Payne, another NHC club member, who stepped in without hesitation and helped secure a trial helper when we needed it most. Because of you, we were able to bring in Steve Liggens, a USCA National-level helper, who dropped everything and flew in from Detroit to support us.

Steve, your work this weekend was nothing short of exceptional. You handled every dog with power, precision, and, most importantly, safety. We are incredibly grateful and welcome you back anytime.

Thank you Judge Jani Turkia for your thoughtful evaluations and detailed critiques. Your feedback gave us valuable insight into our training progress, both as handlers and with our dogs. We always enjoy having you and seeing Ms. Andrea and your wonderful children. Thanks John for taking care of Jani getting to and from the different locations and getting him Starbucks!!!

Thank you to our very own Lindsay Ewalt for another outstanding job as trial secretary. Your organization and dedication do not go unnoticed, we appreciate you more than words can say. It goes without saying that we appreciate Sandy Nekuda for allowing us to have a place to work our dogs. Thanks for all you do keep the grass mowed and potter potty clean for us.

Finally, thank you to all our club members for working super hard over the winter and trusting the process. Congratulations to all of you for all your hard work and success:

* John & Argo — FCI BH, FCI IGP1
* CJ & Phantom — FCI BH
* CJ & Piranha — FCI FPr3, FCI UPr1
* Sandy & Darka — FCI IGP1
* Akin & Argo — FCI IGP1
* Akin & Bullet — FCI IGP1
* Mindy & Petra — FCI IGP2
* Marie & A’Turro — FCI IGP3

We couldn’t be more proud of every handler, every dog, and everyone who played a role in making this weekend such a success. It was amazing to see and hear everyone cheering for each other. Looking forward to our fall trial in November. The pictures say it all. Another successful trial in the books!!!

We Did It Again!
Our 9th Annual Fall Trial was a wonderful success — a two-day event with 23 entries! Wow!

A heartfelt thank-you to Jani Turkia, who was as gracious as ever, taking time from his busy schedule to travel all the way from Finland (by way of Arkansas!) to judge our trial. We are also deeply grateful to Lindsay Ewalt for doing an outstanding job as our trial secretary.

From BHs to FH1s, every team gave their best effort. As with all trials, we received valuable feedback, learned what to refine in our training, and discovered new ways to grow as handlers. Impressively, 22 of the entries were from our own club members!

The food was fantastic — thanks to our amazing club members and their spouses who stepped up to make it happen. A special thanks to John Ulrich for preparing the weeklong schedule and coordinating all the field setups — your dedication made everything run smoothly.

We’re also incredibly thankful to our friend Vio Scinteie from Sweden for an exceptional three-day workshop and excellent helper work.

As I always say, it takes a village — and we have a great one. The pictures tell the story best. Until next time… happy training!
