Handlers: Handlers must be registered with NAVHDA International as a member to run a dog in any NAVHDA sponsored test.
If you get the Versatile Hunting Dog magazine, you are a member. If not, time to join! We feel the magazine is well worth the membership. http://navhdastore.org/membershippackages.aspx
Testing Dog: The dog you are testing must also be registered with NAVHDA International. Information is available here:
http://www.navhda.org/registry/registry-forms
Dogs without "full NAVHDA Registrations" may reserve and hold a space in a test but must be fully registered with NAVHDA the day before the test. Any dog that has not received an Official NAVHDA Registration number 14 days prior to the test will relinquish its space to any dog on a waiting list. Please contact the NAVHDA International Office and get your dog's official NAVHDA Registration Number as soon as possible to ensure your spot in a test.
Waiting list:
If a test is full, you may put a dog on a "Waiting List" for that test. Full payment is required, although refunded (minus a small handling fee) if your dog does not fill a vacated space in a test. Dogs are placed on the waiting list on a "first come, first served" basis upon receipt of registration form and fees.
Test fee refund policy:
Full refunds less a processing fee are given up until 30 days from the first day of the Test Series. 50% refunds are given within 30 days from the first day of the Test Series if the Test does not fill. Full refunds less a processing charge are always given if the test is filled. If you are placed on the waiting list for the test and no spots open up, you will receive a full refund without any processing charges. Any other request for refund must be approved by the Montana Sharptail Board of Directors.
The "14 Day" policy:
Run days will be made official 14 days from a test. Any changes of "Run Day" after the official "Run Day List" is emailed, MUST be confirmed with and Okay'd by the Test Secretary for that Test Series. The run order will be available the morning of the test.
Filling Tests and the "Foot in the Door" policy:
Test are filled as per NAVHDA's mandated Test Formula. This applies to test series that include Natural Ability, Utility Prep, and Utility Tests. If your dog is on a waiting list, and a dog drops from a test (for example creating a "partial space" as one NA space is not equal to a UPT or UT space)...Your dog may gain "Foot in the Door" status until 14 days from the test, at which point the Test Secretary will fill the test and give "Run Days" to Owners and Handlers as per the NAVHDA mandated formula.
