More About Keystone NAVHDA
The Keystone Chapter of NAVHDA (North American Versatile Hunting Dog Association) is a non-profit organization whose purpose is to foster, improve, promote and protect the versatile hunting dog in North America. We train roughly every other weekend, March through August (sometimes September). We utilize multiple PA state game lands, clubs, and farms throughout South Central Pennsylvania to help our dogs learn to perform well in all situations and environments. A true versatile pointing dog must be adept in field and water, effectively track and recover wounded game, and retrieve to hand. The chapter also holds at least two NAVHDA tests per year.
