DEADLINE INFORMATION

HUNTING RETRIEVER is a bi-monthly magazine. The deadline for each issue is always the 15th of the month, one month prior to the respective issue. For example, the deadline for the December 2005 / January 2006 issue was November 15, 2005. Deadlines are strictly followed so that production goes smoothly, which in turn allows HUNTING RETRIEVER to be mailed on its scheduled mailing date.
