Title: AKC Hunt Test June 21-22-----Result's
Post by: Wayne1 on June 10, 2008, 12:27:03 PM: I've never run a AKC hunt test before, but have titled him in NAHRA. I've entered him in the up coming AKC test at Burlington Ranch in Chewelah, Wa. on the 21st, and 22nd. If anyone here are running their dog's then also... would love to meet you.

Post by: Wayne1 on June 10, 2008, 12:38:33 PM: depend's on what your running in.. Junior, Senior, or Masters.. but they all have land and water mark's. Junior's are single mark's, Senior has double mark's, and believe Masters has triple mark's. Senior, and Master's also has land and water blinds.

http://www.northidahoretrieverclub.org/
They can proably also tell you of other upcoming event's

For NAHRA Hunt test's on the west side of the mountian's
http://www.pugetretriever.com/
and again.. get ahold of an officer there and I'm sure they can tell you of other event's in the state. I know Spokane Bird dog club has at least 1 more event this summer.

Also if you ever want to run any Bird Dog Challage's,
www.burlingtonranch.com
They will be running several more event's this year... plus I believe a club will be running one on the west side this year

Post by: Snowman on June 10, 2008, 12:52:56 PM: Cool. Thanks I might just have to go to one. I'm still working with her on hand singles, moving her to the left or the right, come in and she has back down pat. But what the hell it would be fun to see her out there trying.

Post by: Wayne1 on June 10, 2008, 12:56:21 PM: Run her in NAHRA Started, or AKC Junior... neither one would require hand signal's. If ya really want to start a good training program.. let me know and I'll mail ya some great taining DVD's
