Jim River Hunting Retriever Club

08/21/2024

It was our honor to recognize a great HRC friend this year - Joe Perron

Joe is known across the country as one of the greatest trainers and handlers in HRC. He is a staple at hunt tests including the grand. He and his wife Tina are known as some of the best breeders of chocolate dogs. He is one of the kindest souls and anyone who meets him and knows him is lucky! We believe Joe has been at all 10 of our hunt tests. We thank Joe and the rest of his crew for supporting us through the years.

To view the entire presentation, please watch the video earlier on our FB page.

Picture 1 is Joe with all of the Jim River HRC members and anyone that has ever judged Joe.

Picture 2 is everyone who was at the banquet

Did your dog earn it's HRCH title or join the points club at our test? If you did - congratulations!!!

We also give out plaques for this awesome achievement! If we didn't get your name, mailing address and registered name of your dog at the test please send that to us by the end of the day Sunday, August 25 so we can get your plaque in our order. You can message us on FB or [email protected].

Our 10th anniversary test is in the books and we want to thank everyone that helped make it a success!!

First of all we want to thank the judges for giving up their weekend and putting on some great tests!
Heidi Henle, Mike Buxton, Chris Majka, Shannon Stites, Janelle Negen, Rhenee Fadling, Joe Gioia, Jerry Schroeder, Cecil Epp, John Devney, Kirt Meyer, Pat Gysbers, and Mark Stites

We want to thank the North Dakota Retriever Club for allowing us to use their grounds! The grounds were beautiful as always and they allowed us to put on good, challenging, safe tests for the dogs. Using their property really makes holding a hunt test much easier and more enjoyable for everyone.

Thanks to our family members that supported us not just this weekend but throughout the year as we prepare for hunt test season.

And thank you to the club members for your dedication and hard work. It truly takes an army to hold a successful test!
