Are there any Seminars or events in the New York city area in shutzhund or protection work I can attend? I have posted and searched sites and organization Schedules till Im blue in the face.It seems that the big apple is a big dud when it comes to these types of things. Surely I cant be the only one with this interest. there has to be a class or worthy notable seminar I can attend and get my feet wet. any one know of something here please post or e-mail me. I would be most grateful

I attended a Bernhard Flinks seminar in upstate New York a few years ago, the seminars kind of run in cycles and you just need to keep your eye out for when they're headed your way.

Actually, with the laws of New York City, it'd be hard to hold a SchH seminar, hence you'll find that almost any seminar worth going to will be out of the Metro area.
Schutzhund really requires a bit of open space for the training field and tracking. Something that is hard to come by in most urban areas.
Doing the protection training and off-leash obedience in a public area can draw a lot of unwanted attention. Even tracking on a long-line in a public park can be bothersome to some folks.
Will's right. You are going to have to travel a bit.
If you just want to watch, Leerburg's has a number of videos of old Schutzhund events.
FWIW, about half our club members drive over an hour each way for training sessions.
I'm holding out hope that Will will host a seminar with Bernard next year. I have a bunch of relatives downstate from him and need an excuse for a road trip.
