Help us help our youth! ✨

Do you run, govern, sit on a board or work with a current AKC or AFC club in New England? Within 60-90mins of Central CT?

We are looking to add 2026 trial dates to the calendar asap and are looking for local clubs to add in a YOUTH STAKE to the end of their 2026 trials for us. Hoping to get our calendar set in stone by 1/31/26.

•We do all the prep work
•We will supply ribbons and prizes
•We will market/network our own youth stake and your trial in general!

Email us at [email protected] to collaborate and inquire! We can’t do it alone!

Addie entered her first ever shooting dog stake with her dog, in an adult trial.

They went up against some of the best in the Northeast region.

She’s got plenty to work on and learn but I’m proud of her courage and dedication to the sport.

Addie, out there getting it done!On a chilly morning!

This life is so far beyond just trials and ribbons and birds.

It’s calm and healing and a reset, on a morning when you didn’t sleep well and woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

Jack- has a big playoff game this afternoon and woke up feeling tired and unmotivated.

He decided to take his dog out and put some work in early this morning- and came back in the house feeling completely refreshed and ready to go.

This lifestyle does so much more than just what you see. ✨

In looking at 2026-

We are willing to plan 6, 8, 12, 18mos in advance if needed for next year or beyond to ensure that we don’t need to fight for weekends or time slots for events.

Our biggest struggle if I’m being super blunt and honest right now is finding any willing professionals who are willing or interested in mentoring these kids.

From judges, to trialers, to hunters.

Could I set up an event and teach them the basics? Of course I could but why wouldn’t we want to put the best local minds in front of these kids that we have.

Get them the correct foundations, around folks who really care about furthering their experience and education. When we began this project i anticipated having to struggle a bit with finances or sponsors, supplies, etc. But i did not imagine struggling with volunteer help.

That’s my number one goal for next year and beyond. Get a good circle around us of local enthusiasts willing to step up for these youth and give them only a few days of their time each year, to teach them correctly.

That’s the goal.
I’m hoping you all can help me with that.

Pass the word around. 🙂
Thank you. ✨

Harlie and Jack out there tonight putting in that work, in this gorgeous weather.

It is my firm opinion that all kids beyond their beginning/intro period, need to work with tough dogs here and there, as they learn.

A driven, powerful, young, wild dog will teach lessons that no made, broke dog can.
