New Master Hunter!

Post by VizslaGirl » Mon Oct 01, 2012 11:33 am

This is how I like to start the season! I am thrilled to announce that my Cali finished her Master Hunter title (pending AKC approval, of course) with two passes this weekend - at 2 1/2 years old!

Cali finished her SH in Jan 2012, at 22 months old and picked up her first 3 MH legs in a double hunt test at the end of last season. After about a month off, we were able to get some summer bird work in - but prior to this weekend she was out dog showing...so no birds for almost a month! On Saturday she had a tough brace, with hard birds, a retrieve from a covey find and a very stressful honor through the retrieve to earn all 9s and 10s for her 4th MH leg. On Sunday our run was not quite as pretty, and our scores not quite as high - but we did it!

Cali is my first Vizsla, my first bird dog and my first MH - I am so grateful for all of the help/support from the bird dog community - I could never have done this with out the judges, the gunners, the friends and bracemates with suggestions and the people who allowed me to train with them/their dogs. It has been an amazing experience!

Now the fun stuff begins! Cali will hit the FT circuit with me, starting next weekend in Arlington, GA!
