It was quite a successful weekend at the 2023 Ottawa Valley Pointing Dog Field and Water Tests with many dog & handler teams earning qualifying legs and finishing field and water titles. The weather turned out to be pretty great, and the Ambertrail grounds in Maxville were lovely as usual.
On behalf of the Ottawa Valley Pointing Dog Club, I wanted to take the opportunity to thank all of you for your role in helping to make our field and water tests this past weekend a success.
Special thanks to our wonderful Judges: Kevin MacWilliams, Regina Sagh, Reynald Lefebvre, Marc-Andre Gagne, Paige Pettis and Gaby Giroux. I hope you all have had a chance to put your feet up and enjoy some much needed rest and relaxation.
Thank you to our hardworking gunners & thank you also to all our bird planters, and Kade, for assisting with the water tests. Thanks as well to Anton and Regina for picking up the birds and bringing them to the tests!
Thank you to Mark & Bridgette for providing lunch for our hardworking judges, gunners, and volunteers on Saturday, and Chantal L, for bringing lunch on Sunday!
And finally, a big thank you to Debbie, our test secretary, and Stephanie, for covering test secretary duties at the water, and Rachel, for your role as Field Marshall.
Thank you & 😀 happy summer!
P.S. Results will be posted unofficially on our web page soon.
