The Sierra Vista Labrador Retriever Club ( SVLRC ) was founded on March 5, 1989 and is located in Northern California in the general Sacramento Valley area and foothills. Its members are active in field, obedience and conformation show events and training for those events. Many of the members also breed Labrador Retrievers in accordance with the goal of the club to better the breed. 

After several years of holding confirmation matches and fulfilling the various requirements of the American Kennel Club, SVLRC was licensed to hold Labrador Retriever Specialty shows. The first SVLRC Specialty show was held on May 19th and 20th of 2000 at the Amador County Fairgrounds in Plymouth, California. SVLRC now holds its annual specialty show Labor Day weekend in conjunction with the Gold Country Kennel Club Show at the Nevada County Fairgrounds in Grass Valley.
