Doubt it...  I've got about 4 more tests on this side of the state, then that'll be about all my budget will stand.... well at least the wifey tells me I'm on a budget...  guess what she don't know won't hurt her... :chuckle:

Great..!!!.. I've never run a HRC test, so not sure If I'll run any of my dog's then or not....  But since it's our new club's first HRC test, I'll be there to at least help out where needed. Let me know if your gonna make it for sure or not, so hopefully we can meet up :)

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.

No - I didn't run him in the upland test and I'll probably hold off on that for a bit for now.  We missed our spring hunt test (WWHRC) as we were in Maui during that time on a family vacation.  We're looking forward to the Aug test.  You'll know me when you see me and my 3 boys, as they all are carbon copies of me...buzz cuts and camo in small, med, large and XL.   :chuckle:

Looking forward to meeting you RPM and Wayne at a hunt test sometime soon.
