BIG weekend at Tri-State’s spring HRC test. Different grounds, same great club event! Thank you to the club, judges, and field techs for all the hard work! Pulling off a test with three finished flights packed full of dogs can’t be easy. Jeremy and Bow had the trailers fully loaded (plus some) with 22 dogs! The weekend brought two new HRCH titles (looking at you Jade and Trixie), and three new seasoned titles (GO Blu, Wriggs, and Hank). Congratulations to the following and thank you to all of the owners!

We want to let everyone know about our upcoming breeding! And we need to brag on Piper as well… she is the top producing female currently and historically in HRC. She is the dam of Fern in this breeding! Please call if you have any questions!

The HRC International Grand cannot be put into words. Many people worked so hard to put on an event that challenged more than 1,000 excellent dogs. The committee, the host club, the judges, the workers….top notch! The devil is in the details and everyone who pitched in to make this one run smoothly kept the evil at bay.

The pictures paint the story for this grand—FAMILY is the center of it all. Our team is family. Our training group is family. Our owners are family. Our family shows up to celebrate the highs, support through the lows, and is ALWAYS ready for the next challenge.

HHR ran 12 well and capable dogs in this Grand and came home with 8 passes, including FOUR new Grand Champions, two with added numbers, and two first time getting the green ribbon! Congratulations to the following on a very successful conclusion to the 2025 season!

WHAT A WEEKEND! We tackled Inducky with 21 dogs running all three levels. We are so grateful to be able to run these talented dogs in challenging weekend tests so close to home. Thank you to the judges, club members, and all the workers for putting on a great test.

Ended the weekend 39/40 and FOUR new titles (all pictured)! HR Rooster, SHR Roly, SHR Hank, and SHR Wriggs all did great work.

As you can tell from the pictures, Em Rose is well on her way to being finished level judge, too!

Hello, FALL! Not sure how we got here, but we were back in the thick of it this weekend!

Jeremy took six dogs to the Green River Club’s D/Q Field Trial in Owensboro. ALL SIX brought home a ribbon, and Toby added QA2 to his healthy resume! The Derby on Saturday and the Q on Sunday were challenging, efficiently run, and really put the dogs to the test!

Bow got to run in one of our favorite spots! Tri-State ALWAYS puts on a great test. Big shoutout to Miss Heather for always taking such good care of us. The grounds and workers were fantastic all weekend, and we got home before the sun set!

Congratulations to all of the hard working dogs and their owners!

What a great mid-week Master test at Bourbon Hills in Onton, KY. Following the O/H Qualifier, Bow stayed on to run the MH test. The birds flew high and wide, the judges set up a challenging test that was also mindful of the heat and keeping dogs (and handlers) healthy and safe!

Not even hundred plus degree heat was hotter than NASH this weekend, running 3 clean series! He achieved his 6th pass, giving him his MH TITLE!

Congratulations on a Master Pass this weekend:
