CWDF 2023: Meet our Judges
Obedience & Protection Judge: Klaus-Jürgen Glüh (Germany/VDH)

I started in dog sports almost 30 years ago with my first dog. Since then, I have trained 3 Rottweilers and 3 Malinois. With my current dog, a Malinois male, I have successfully participated in various competitions and passed the trial levels IGP 1 to 3 and FH 1 and 2.

At the end of the nineties, I started training to become a judge and finally received my license in 2000. Over the years I have judged many club trials, many LV championships, 8 BSP in all phases and in 2015 the VDH German Championship in protection and in 2019 in tracking. The highlight in my judging career was my assignment at the FCI IGP World Championship 2022 in Obedience.

In addition, I am committed to our sport. In 2014, I was elected as DVG judge chairman and since 2015 I have been a member of the VDH working dog commission. The VDH appointed me as team leader of the German national team for tracking dogs. This work was very successful with many titles. In May this year we achieved the first two places and also became team world champion.

I am very happy to be allowed to judge the Canadian Championship and hope to be able to implement my conviction of sporting fairness.

Klaus-Jürgen Glüh
Member of the German Utility Dog Commission
Vice President of the FCI Utility Dog Commission

CWDF 2023: Meet our Judges
Tracking Judge: Jim Chrisp (Canada/CWDF)

I have been in the dog sport since 1991. I started with a 3 year old Doberman, but soon after achieving a Schutzhund 1, bought a German Shepherd puppy. Since then I've trained 5 dogs to IGP 3, and others to BH, FH, and AD titles along the way. I currently have a young dog that I am starting. I’ve been a competitor at Club, Regional, National, and WUSV levels.

I have served as Team Canada Captain twice, as well as co-captain once. From the start of my days in this sport, I have been a member of the Winnipeg Working Dog CIub, serving in all positions on the executive. In 2018 I relocated to British Columbia, but recently moved again to beautiful Alberta.

I began the Canadian Judge's program in 2006, and since then have judged in Canada, United States, and twice in Barbados. I have been the Canadian National Helper Director for the German Shepherd Schuzhund Club of Canada twice, and also a member of the GSSCC Judge’s Committee. I became a licensed CWDF Judge in 2019 and became GSSCC Head Judge last October.

I wish all of the competitors good luck, and thank the organizing committee for all of their hard work. The old saying that “It takes a village” is an understatement for an event such as this.

Jim Chrisp
GSSCC Head Judge
CWDF Judge #06
