In January 2008 the German Shepherd Schutzhund Club was founded by
American German Shepherd Enthusiasts together with experienced German and
Swiss Breeders who immigrated to South West Florida over the past years.
Goal of all of our Club Members is to promote the German Shepherd Dog to his
highest potential and to develop his great abilities in Game and Sport. All this will
help the German Shepherd dog to live up to his destiny he is bread to since more
than 100 years. His destiny to be a Family Companion, a Red Cross Helper, a
Herding Dog, a Search and Rescue Asset, a Crime Fighter for Police and a Guide
dog or Therapy Dog for handicapped Children, Men and Women.
The German Shepherd Dog is the total Dog – limited only by his owners time and
effort he put forth to train and guide him.
We meet every Sunday Morning at 9.00 in North Fort Myers. Here we train and
socialize our Dogs with other Humans and other Dogs. Humans and Dogs are
learning Traffic Sureness, Obedience and depending on Owner and Dog the
ultimate Schutzhund (Protection).
