The
Blue Tahoe Schutzhund Club (BTSC) was first formed in
January of 1998 with 5 founding members; Buck Yeager, Tim and Dawn
Burke, Al Burns, and Neil Pereen. We are located in Reno,
Nevada at the foot of the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevada. The club is currently
under the leadership and guidance of Tim Burke
who became the clubs training director. The club is comprised of a
wide cross section of members; some are new to the sport and others have
competed at the national level. We have over 20 members and are
growing. We encourage families to participate and have several
young members. We promote safety, fun, motivational training, and
participation.
The Club is a member of the Northwestern Region of the national organization, United
Schutzhund Clubs of America (USA) and abide by the by-laws and
regulations set forth by USA. We host various events throughout the
year including training seminars, Schutzhund trials, SV style
Conformation shows and breed surveys. In 1999 the Club (along with
the entire Northwestern Region) hosted the Schutzhund 3 and Police Dog
Championships.
People interested in the sport
of Schutzhund are encouraged to come to a club training session.
We hold regularly weekly training sessions. For a current schedule contact the training director (Tim Burke) at
schutzhund@charter.net or call him at
