  • Hunt Tests

    • A spring and fall event, The American Kennel club instituted Pointing Dog Hunt Testing in 1986 following the success of the Retrieving Dog Hunt Test program. The first test was held in April 1986 by the Nebraska Brittany Club. Since that time, most pointing dog breed clubs have been holding hunt tests. We typically hold our hunt tests at Freeland Kennel Club, Weatherly PA.
