This simulated hunt test allows our Brittany's of all ages to do what they were bred to do, find and point birds. This large preserve provides a safe environment for both you and your dog. Whether you and your Brittany are new to the field or are an experienced team, this is a great opportunity to work your dog on planted quail, meet other members, share experience and show your support for the club. It will also be a great warm up for the NVBC Fall Hunt Test the following day. The event is scheduled the day before the NVBC Fall Hunt Test and at the same location as the Fall Hunt Test.  The Training Day is intended to provide an opportunity to run your dog in an environment similar to a hunt test but in a relaxed and informal structure.   

The NVBC will ask for a donation of $10.00 per dog entered in the event to cover the cost of birds.  Two birds will be provided for each dog entered.

Guests and potential new members and their Brittany's are welcome. Please bring folding chairs.

For information contact Greg Storey at (703) 361-0334 or email gstorey@comcast.net.
