No problem!
Discover the fun of competing with your dog and earning titles in AKC events.

GSVKC SANCTIONED
B/OB/RALLY MATCH
The Club generally holds an AKC sanctioned match each year in Sierra Vista, during March or April. A match gives people, and their dogs, puppies and inexperienced dogs, an opportunity to practice conformation, obedience and rally. Owners may also bring out their old 'friends' for the Parade of Champions.
For more information on AKC B/OB/RALLY matches, please visit the American Kennel Club web site.
Our 2025 AKC-sanctioned Match will be held on Saturday, May 10th, 2025 at Veterans Memorial Park, in conjunction with Sierra Vista's Celebrating Animals event! Check back soon for more information.
