Description
Formed in 1985, the Mid-South Hunting Retriever Club invites all area hunters and retriever enthusiasts to participate in club sponsored hunts and training clinics. The MSHRC provides a program for sporting competition and an ongoing educational training experience that emphasizes the value of a trained retriever for waterfowl and upland game conservation.
This is truly a hunting retriever program conceived by hunters, perfected by hunters, and put on by hunters. The hunts are designed to duplicate actual waterfowl and upland bird hunting conditions and situations. Participants dress in hunting camouflage and use decoys, duck calls, and duck blinds. Live and blank ammunition is also used.
Dogs compete individually against an established standard instead of the conventional first, second, and third place concept. The hunt tests offer three levels of difficulty based on the handler's skill and the dog's experience, not age. Titles are awarded in all three categories: Junior, Senior, and Master.
