Just my 7 mon old lab pup in his first HRC test in Sequim June 6,7 and he passed all his "Started tests" - e water, 2 land ea day. Gonna do Rainier HRC's AKC 5-series single this Saturday. My club (Whistling Wings HRC) is running their hunt test Aug 22, 23. If he passes there, he'll have his first title at around 9 mons (Started Hunting Retriever). My 3 boys are bird boys and love it.
