Winning field trial events earns points towards a Field Championship, half of that desirable Dual Champion title. Watch dozens of Brittanys and other AKC pointing breeds run and search the cover for upland game birds for their horse-mounted and walking handlers. Seeing a Brittany lock on point is a sight to behold.
There is no admission fee. Families, friends and dogs (on leads) are welcome.
