About North American Versatile Hunting Dog Association

We are pleased to have handlers of all ages including junior handlers within our membership. Our club members reside across Alberta, Saskatchewan & B.C. and include first time versatile dog owners, dedicated hunters, professional dog trainers, versatile dog breeders and show ring competitors.

Our four-legged members are seasoned high-performance athletes, first-time swimmers, young protégés honing their skills, and graying veterans enjoying their retirement years still working in the field.

We welcome all levels and aim to equip new and seasoned handlers with the training needed to learn and be successful. We believe that when members invest in their dogs’ training, they will develop their versatile dogs into ‘finished’ hunting partners and amazing companions they will enjoy for years to come.

You will find the community of people within our NAVHDA chapter to be down-to-earth, friendly and collaborative and we know you will enjoy training, testing and hunting with us!
