Cape
Gundog
Club
The Cape Gundog Club has been running
field trials and field tests as well as providing
working gundog training since the late 1960s, in order
to implement fully its aims as a club as stated in its
Constitution: which are to promote
well-being, the development and the integrity of the
various breeds of gundogs both in the ring and in the
field. We believe that a good gundog must be of
appropriate appearance adhering to the breed standard,
and at the same time
able to perform creditably in the field.
Under KUSA licence, the CGC provides annual
Championship Retriever Field Trials which attract an
entry of a variety of retriever breeds including
Goldens, Labradors and Flatcoats. Entries may also be
also accepted (although placings
may not be awarded) to other gundog breeds such as
Spaniels, Vislas, Weimaraners and Pointers. Currently,
entries are received from all over South Africa, and
are encouraged also from neighbouring countries.
These trials are presently held in the Barrydale
district in the Western Cape during the month of July
annually.
Field Training is provided when trainers are
available, from time to time.
Enquiries are welcomed and should be addressed
to the following members of the CGC Field Trials Sub
