Update – National Helper Seminar & Trial Schedule

This notice is being sent to all club contacts and admins as listed on GSSCC360. This is important so please read.

We have 2 things to communicate that are important.

  1. We are looking for a club to host the National Helper seminar the weekend of June 1-2 or June  29-30 2024. Please email  ontarioschutzhund@gmail.com if your club is interested in hosting email or contact myself before  February 29, 2024. (must be an accredited club)
  2. The Ontario region board met yesterday and agreed that we need to find a solution (even if temporary) to address the shortage of weekends to host trials. Our region now has 14 GSSCC accredited clubs and there isn’t enough weekends to book trials if all clubs booked a trial. The decision was made that for 2024 we will waive the every other weekend requirement to allow all clubs to be able to book a trial. This will be reviewed year to year going forward.  This applied to new trial requests ONLY for clubs who have NOT booked a trial yet. If your club already booked 1 or more trials already new requests will not be approved.

Exceptions: ***There will be no trials approved 2 weekends prior to the Ontario regionals(May 24-25-26, 2024) or on the same weekend as CWDF Championship (June 14-16 2024).***

Please email Ontarioschutzhund@gmail.com or me directly at katty@waldwegk9.com if you have any concerns.

Trial Manager Seminar – March 25

DSC_1777The Ontario Region Schutzhund Association is pleased to present:

Trial Manager Seminar with Racine Hyatt-Auld.

Effective 2019, all GSSCC IPO trials must be run by an accredited Trial Manager. The name “Manager” has been chosen to replace the term “Secretary” to reflect the more significant responsibilities that the Trial Manager has for the success of the trial, and for the attention and accuracy that is due from the paperwork and procedures of the trial.

The trial is a serious process. Each dog must be authenticated, and the records accurately maintained, as we are creating a record for future generations that breeding decisions may well be based on.

Every trial will need a certified trial manager, and each club should have at least two trial managers, otherwise one person will be denied the advantage of ever trialing on their home field.

Details

  • Date: March 25, 2018
  • Time: 11 am – 5 pm.
  • The seminar will start promptly at 11. Please arrive in good time.
  • Location: Rosewood Pet Resorts – Scarborough. 15 Reesor Rd. Scarborough,
    ON M1X 1R5. This facility is generously donated for this seminar, please respect designated parking areas and existing clientele traffic.

To bring:

  • Download and print the GSSCC forms that you would need for a trial, from the GSSCC website. Official Documents – Trial Column
  • GSSCC Rulebook (Each club should have it’s own copy of the rulebook.)
  • Pen and Clipboard
  • A Chair

Water and Light Refreshments will be provided.

Format: The seminar will start with a Theory Presentation, followed by a Mock Trial, and the day will wrap up with the Certification Test. Paperwork will be sent to the Trial Manager Program Coordinator for evaluation, and participants will receive notification of certification status or recommendation regarding follow-up work.

This seminar is presented free of charge to GSSCC members. Please register to attend.

Notice of the Annual General Meeting 2017

Notice of the Annual General Meeting
of Ontario Region Schutzhund Association

This is to advise you of the upcoming annual general meeting of the members of Ontario Region Schutzhund Association. The details of this meeting are as follows:

Date: June 2, 2017
Time: 6 pm
Place: Capital City Schutzhund, Concession Road 8, Claremont
http://capitalcitysc.com/contact/

If you have anything that you wish to add to the agenda, please forward it to Dwyn Tomlinson (ontarioschutzhund@gmail.com) by May 26 for inclusion in the agenda.

A club or clubs wishing to host the Regional Championship Trial, Show and Breed Survey for 2018 should apply to the Regional Board BEFORE the AGM. If there is more than one application, the members present at the AGM will vote on the decision. The next year’s host will be announced at the AGM.

We apologize for the shortened notice. If you would like to object – please let us know now, but the board felt that keeping it on the expected date would be less of a surprise than moving it and inconveniencing everyone by adding another event to their schedule.

Thank you and we look forward to seeing you there.
