I don't have a pointing dog but wouldn't mind stopping by and checking the event out.
Can anyone tell if spectators are welcome, and what the event is like for a spectator?

Thanks,

I went as a spectator to the one labour day weekend in nackawic and they went out of their way to get me involved, had a great time walking 3 braces in my sandals while everyone else wore rubber boots. Got to see some really nice dogs. After that I really wanted to enter my pup in this event but unfortunately he will be in Maine running a Navhda test.

Thanks I'll do my best to get down. Upland dogs are always fun to watch.

J Pryde,

Spectators are welcome to walk the courses and watch the dogs. Would love to have you.

Take Sherwood Road just past the store in Debec and when you come to the first y take the right and you can't miss us.

 

[Trappercase]

I'll be there.

We expect to get started at 8:30 and will run two dogs at a time (braces) for 30 minutes each on multiple wild bird courses.
