Our club supports the German Shepherd Dog and our members by offering training, fun events, hosting competitions in several activities (both performance trials and conformation events) and opportunities for official certifications (Canine Good Citizen, Therapy Dog International, GSDCA Temperament Certification, etc.). It's important we continue to support each other's interests as it takes a village to run our Club and put on all these events, and we do it for the good of the breed and our members.

Interested in working with dogs? The club is looking for two intern positions, one in obedience training and the other as a trainer working at a monthly workshop. The latter deals with people having issues with their dogs and bonding. More information can be found by clicking this link to the Pointy-Eared Training Socialization and Obedience Workshop. If you want to work with GSDs in an exciting capacity this is a great place to begin. If interested, email training@gsdcmsp.org.
Check out the Club's Facebook page or the club newsletter the Shep-O-Gram Shep-O-Gram for event recaps and other club-related happenings.
Want Free Training? Volunteer at the Training Desk! - We are looking for volunteers to help out at the training desk on Friday nights.
