The Kennel Club is running a special seminar on the ‘Management and Organisation of Field Trials and Gundog Working Tests’ at the Littlebury Hotel, Bicester, Oxon on 27th April.

The seminar is primarily designed for those who are newly appointed field trial or gundog working test secretaries and will provide a comprehensive and up-to-date framework for best practice in the running of field events. Existing field trial or gundog working test secretaries and other club officials may also benefit from the latest information being offered at the seminar.

Caroline Kisko, Kennel Club Secretary, said: “This seminar is the perfect opportunity for new and existing field trial or gundog working test secretaries to further their knowledge and to keep abreast of the latest information regarding the running of these events.

“The seminar will consist of presentations and breakout sessions, focused on issues that a secretary is likely to encounter at some point. This hands-on approach will help delegates learn in a practical and interesting way.”

Each delegate will receive a comprehensive information pack on the day, which includes copies of the presentations and a CD containing template forms which can be tailored for individual use.

The cost of this seminar is £45 and a buffet lunch and refreshments will be included.  To book a place, download the application form at http://www.thekennelclub.org.uk/item/4756.

The Kennel Club is the largest organisation in the UK devoted to dog health, welfare and training. Its objective is to ensure that dogs live healthy, happy lives with responsible owners.

It runs the country’s largest registration database for both pedigree and crossbreed dogs and the Petlog database, which is the UK’s biggest reunification service for microchipped animals. The Kennel Club Assured Breeder Scheme is the only scheme in the UK that monitors breeders, in order to protect the welfare of puppies and breeding bitches. It also runs the UK’s largest dog training programme, the Good Citizen Dog Training Scheme and licenses shows and clubs across a wide range of activities, which help dog owners to bond and enjoy life with their dogs. The Kennel Club runs the world’s greatest dog show, Crufts, and the Discover Dogs event at Earls Court, London, which is a fun family day out that educates people about how to buy responsibly and care for their dog.

The Kennel Club invests in welfare campaigns, dog training and education programmes and the Kennel Club Charitable Trust, which supports research into dog diseases and dog welfare charities, including Kennel Club Breed Rescue organisations that re-home dogs throughout the UK. The Kennel Club jointly runs health screening schemes with the British Veterinary Association and through the Charitable Trust, funds the Kennel Club Genetics Centre at the Animal Health Trust, which is at the forefront of pioneering research into dog health. The new Kennel Club Cancer Centre at the Animal Health Trust will contribute to the AHT’s well-established cancer research programme, helping to further improve dog health.
