Refunds: Will be permitted up until 9PM CT on the Monday before the test. Requests must be made by email to the Hunt Test Manger. There will be no refunds after 9 pm CT the Monday before the test except for bitches in season, illness, injury or death of a dog. The HTC reserves the right to request a veterinarian certificate. Such scratch must be made by notifying the Hunt test Secretary in a timely manner. If an owner-member has a dog that has received a 4X GMPR on the first day of the test but had also registered for the second day shall be granted a refund if the dog is scratched. Entry modification: All dogs must be entered at the highest stake they intend to run for that test. Dogs may be shifted to a lower stake without a refund of the difference. Appeals of the Hunt Test Secretary’s refund decision by owner-members must be made to the Hunt Test Committee within 10 days of the end of the test.
Running order will be posted on the web page under the EVENTS TAB
Entry Forms, Premiums, and liability release forms are available on the web page under the EVENTS TAB
The Hunt Test Chair, with the approval of the Hunt Test Committee, may choose to modify the conditions of the Test based on resources available, weather or other factors and will ensure that the changed conditions will be posted on the web site 24 hours in advance of the Hunt Test under the EVENTS TAB. All participants are encouraged to review the on-line premium for possible changes
There are generally NO Walk-ups allowed. The exception is when the (HTC only) has received a request by a member who for extenuating circumstances only was unable to register online Walk-up requests must be in person at the test- no requests shall be honored that are made in advance of the test date. Walk-ups by their nature cause extra work for the HTC, HTS, HTM and the Secretary and for that reason will require an additional handling fee of $25 per dog. This fee shall be collected along with the registration fee, proof of membership, application, and dog registration proof, before the dog is allowed to run.
▪No handler is allowed to run a dog without assurance that all fees have been paid and all appropriate documentation has been received by the APLA.
▪All dogs must be entered at the highest stake they intend to run for that test. Dogs may be shifted to a lower stake
