The Pointer Club of Southern California was first organized on May 2, 1971 in Anaheim California. The goal was to encourage and stimulate the breed of Pointers.

The first Pointer Specialty was held in Pasadena on October 8, 1972. In October 1994 the PCSC was licensed by the American Kennel Club to hold Independent Specialties.

The Pointer Press our official newsletter went to publication in 1973. In the late eighties the club’s logo was created. The first club banner was made and used at the 1975 specialty show in Pasadena.

In 1976 the clubs name was changed from the American Pointer Club, Southern California Region to The Golden West Pointer Club. Years later the name was changed again to our current name.

On March 31, 1979 we hosted our first National Specialty in Fresno for the Parent Club, The American Pointer Club, Inc. In 1997 we hosted our second National in Long Beach, CA and the third in 2001 in Claremont, CA. PCSC has often had a member serve on the APC Board with affiliate member status.

In March 1997 we became eligible to hold licensed hunting tests. The licensed hunting tests is for all Pointing Breeds and is held annually.

During the past 15 years we have had a booth at the America’s Family Pet Expo where our members and their Pointers help educate the public on the versatility and beauty of the Pointer. In 2005 our members participated in the AKC’s, RDOD Responsible Dog Owner Day.

We congratulate our members for their outstanding efforts in promoting the best interest of our breed.....the beloved Pointer.
