Hunting and Fishing in NJ - A forum for NJ Hunters and NJ Anglers

Today my pup Hunter participated in the Rock Tavern chapter of NAVHDA for his Natural Abilty test and I'm proud to say we had a awesome day with a great group of people.

First and foremost i would like to thank Raymond Santiago for helping me in the training of my dog along with the rock tavern chapters training clinic and some awesome people there also.

I entered Hunter in the Natural Ability test not really knowing a whole lot about the process and i was probably alot more nervous then he but we made it thru My 12 1/2 month old german shorthair pointer scored a total of 101 out of a possible 112 for a Prize 2 in Natural Abilty.

This is only the begining of our training and still have a ways to go but so far every thing has come together nicely and hopefully a solid training regimin will result in the ultimate hunting partner for years to come. I cannot wait for small game season to begin.

wow thats cool ,glad you had a great time with your dog ,he sounds like a natural ,good luck with him .

sorry no pics just no way to run the dog and shoot pics at the same time.

Thats Awesome sounds like you are gona have one hell of a bird dog

My pup was there today as well. Mike handled Brooke because I was unable to leave our litter of 2 week old pups for that long. Anyway Mike is really not into the NAVHDA thing, but did a great job with Brooke and came home with a 108 prize II. Mike said it was a pleasure meeting you and he told me you have a heck of a nice dog. Karen

Karen congrats to you also. It was a pleasure meeting mike along with brooke you have a wonderful little girl there. Mark

I miss my english setter I had..he passed on about 6 years ago and loved the birds.
