German Shorthaired Pointer Club
of
Middle Tennessee

Welcome to the GSPCMTN Website!

The club was founded in May of 2002 and was granted accreditation by the American Kennel Club (AKC) in October of 2003



Dear GSPCMTN Members, With great sadness, I must share with you that one of our long-time original members, Johnny Johnston, passed away on Saturday, August 17, 2024. While not all of you have had a chance to meet Johnny, as he has been quite ill for several years, I am sure that our long-time members have fond memories and some funny stories that involved Johnny. I knew him as an expert horseman and a great dog trainer. Johnny loved his family, his friends, his dogs, and Field Trialing. He had a hardy laugh recognized by all as uniquely Johnny’s. The way I saw it, he never met a stranger and seemed to be at ease with everyone. To the pointing dog community, Johnny was a trainer, mentor, and a serious competitor. To many of us, he was a dear friend. Our sincere condolences to June Johnston, Johnny’s wife, and his entire family.
