SPECIAL EXHIBITION CLASSES:
Wet Retrieve Class: After Group placements have occurred, we will have a special wet retrieve class. Dogs entered into this class, will be required to perform a water retrieve (the dog does not have to retrieve to hand but must swim out to the bird scented bumper and bring it back to land). Once the dog is back on land, it will be taken immediately into the ring to be judged wet, by the first judge for show 1 and then the second judge for show 2. There will be 4 placements chosen for each show. Fire hose with cork core style bumpers with bird (pheasant/grouse) scent will be used by the club. No substitutions allowed. Approximately 40 ft retrieve from land out to bumper. (distance may vary somewhat due to being thrown by hand)
UKC Title Class: This class is for any dog with a hunt title from UKC Affiliated organizations. Specifically: Hunting Retriever Club, National Bird Dog Circuit, National Shoot to Retrieve Association, United Field Trialers Association, American Pointing Labrador Association, Elite Shed Dogs. Classes will be broken down into specific titles or organization, if we have a large entry. Otherwise dogs will all go in together.
ABK Scurry Title Class: This class is for any dog that has received a title from Apple Blossom Kennels, in any level of our Scurry events. If we have a large entry, we will break each class down by specific title. Otherwise dogs will all go in together.
