For the first fun day event the club will host an informal evaluation of the dogs’ natural ability to hunt, point and retrieve. Most dogs will be first timers, so we plan to just get to know one another and have FUN with our Vizslas!
Our evaluator for the day will be Mrs Renee Minny. She is a licensed Gundog Judge and also a Panel Judge for SAVHDA (South African Versatile Hunting Dogs Association). She will give feedback on the dogs’ performances and give advice on how to proceed with further training for field work, should you be interested. The dogs will be evaluated INDIVIDUALLY so all dogs not being ‘worked’ must be kept on leash or in training crates. NO BITCHES IN HEAT will be allowed to attend.
Please bring your own chairs, gazebo (optional) and a picnic basket. No toilet facilities available, unless there are enough people attending to warrant renting a portable toilet.
PLEASE RSVP BEFORE 26 JUNE 2017, INCLUDING THE NAMES, AGES AND SEX OF DOGS YOU WISH TO ENTER, BY SENDING AN EMAIL TO admin@vizslaclub.co.za
