Good job Erik and Riley! I probably will see you run this summer.

It depends on the dog (and handler), but they definitely are not literal days. Think of the days as mini projects. My Golden will be three months old on the ninth and his progress should not be...

My first MH had one WC (Working Certificate) in the past three generations. Look at it as a challenge of your training abilities!

Great idea! We will use this as soon as the ice melts (plus a few degrees) in the Erie area.

I reviewed Days 1 and 2 and started on the little things like Watson learning his name, house breaking him, and just having fun. It has taken at least three weeks before he is ready for the Day 1...

Used it on my now 11 week old Golden with no problems whatsoever. Went to Tractor Supply for a second bag and there was none available so I purchased a Puppy Taste of the Wild. We have made the...

What I have done over the years is to use the corner of a building or fenced in area with the 90 degree angle. Right throw first, left throw second. Never had that problem. Next, I reversed the...

Good advice from Hunt'EmUp. We basically did the same thing with the Presque Isle Retriever Club of Erie PA. The AKC club folded because the same people did all of the work. We got together twenty...

My eight week Golden is still working on getting to Day 1. He has learned the "sit" command and we are working on the fun retrieves and walking with a collar and light lead. Bill Hillmann is...

Presque Isle Retriever Club of Erie Pa will sponsor a Bill Hillman Seminar in Springboro, Crawford County, PA. Dogs at all levels are invited. Maximum two dogs per handler. For information contact...

If you are feeding a grain free dog kibble, why not just use that? My guys do not seem to care, just as long as it is a treat. Also, you can count the treats to total daily food allowance.

I did not want to put my 10 year old girl through surgery, so we tried a laser treartment; several times per week - one minute on the undeside and one minute on the outer side. There were also some...

This is a little late for this situation but I always suggest that participants check the AKC web site about two weeks after a hunt test. If any errors were made, it is much easier to correct when...

AKC Hunt Test seminar, March 31 sponsored by the Presque Isle Retriever Club. Last day to sign up is March 20. FMI contat Bob Bush at 814-969-0058 or blackwaterdog@gmail.com. Location is at the...

The GPGRC hunt test will be on May 26 and 27 at Hambden. We are waiting for AKC approval of the judging panel: Master, Senior, two Junior tests.

Good job! I was there for #3.

Too bad most of you can just read about this. I was fortunate enough to be standing just behind her for all three series. Good job Anney and Fisher!

A second AKC hunt test has been added - the 22 weekend of the year. That will be June 2 & 3, 2012; and yes, we are a Master National Club.

Our second date is the 32nd weekend of the year. Both...

OK, let's add a new wrinkle. The judge says, "Heel your dog!" Is the handler free to send his dog after the dog comes to the heel position or does he have to wait for the number to be called?

And we are adding another test in June -- same location.

For those of you following our progress, we have had three fun field days - two with live flyers and our first AKC hunt test is August 13 and 14. We have another field day scheduled on August 27 at...

Try looking at Entry Express -- Last 12 months - and you might have an indication of some tests that are not yet posted.
