Group Training
All are welcome! Group training nights are an opportunity to get your dogs on great grounds, expose your dog to a test-like environment, and connect with new training partners.
We offer sessions focused on both Hunt Tests and Field Trials —check out the schedule below!
What to Expect
We’ll run organized setups suitable for advanced dogs, with options to simplify for less experienced dogs.
Cost is $30 per handler, and each handler may run up to two dogs per set up. We’ll supply equipment for the field, such as bumpers, boom guns, & holding blinds.
Everyone is expected to pitch in when not running—helping throw, managing the running order, and making the night run smoothly for the group. If your dog runs a setup, we ask that you stay to help until all dogs have completed the series.
What to Bring
Pack for the weather and come ready to train. Some suggested items include:
Water, bug spray, and boots
Your dog’s usual training gear
Chair, radio, blank pistol + hearing protection, and a white shirt
Registration Required
All are welcome, but advance registration is required (scroll down to register!)
We also require a completed 2025 Liability Waiver on file before participating.
