VHDF-CANADA

VHDF-Canada provides scores (typically 1-10, with 11 & 12 reserved for extraordinary circumstances) and associated word evaluations such as Excellent, Very Good, etc. There is no pass/fail designation. VHDF-Canada leaves it to breeders and breed clubs to make the best use of these numeric and categorical scales. VHDF-Canada does not presume to know each breed club's goals. One breed may have its traditional and respected strength in field work, whereas another breed is expected to perform equally well across the entire versatile spectrum. By respecting vive-la-difference within versatile hunting limits, VHDF-Canada feels the North American hunter is best served... The Versatile Hunting Dog Association, Canada holds tests and training days in Canada.
