This Weekend At UKC
Bird Dogs in Canada - The UKC/HRC Upland Hunt Tests are designed to mimic realistic hunting situations as closely as possible. In keeping with the Hunting Retriever Club philosophy, “Conceived by hunters for hunters,” dogs are tested on their ability to quarter a field, flush a game bird, track a scent and retrieve a downed bird to hand. The Lake Ontario Hunting Retriever Club will host two upland hunts this weekend in Oshawa, Ontario - a great chance for anyone pursuing their Upland Hunter (UH) title. Come by and check out the fun!

Walkers were first registered with UKC as part of the English Coonhound breed.
