Welcome

Schuylkill Valley GSP Club

The Schuylkill Valley German Shorthaired Pointer Club was founded by a group of breed enthusiasts in the early 1970’s. The club is centered in Reading PA area but also has members from outside that area and several other states. SVGSPC is a member of the German Shorthaired Pointer Club of America (GSPCA) and recognized by the American Kennel Club (AKC).

Our club endeavors to provide events that interest members and other owners of German Shorthaired Pointers (GSPs). However, owning a GSP is not a requirement for membership and we have several members who are devoted to other pointing breeds but enjoy the activities SVGPSC offers.
