Earthdog trials
The Arizona Earthdog Club holds two trials a year, usually in April and October in Arizona. Arizona trials are held at Dead Horse Ranch State Park in Cottonwood, Arizona.
Our spring trial is usually held the first weekend in April, the Fall trial, the third weekend in October, but it's not set in stone. Check this site for exact dates. See below for details.

Yahoo Email Group
Arizona Earthdog Club members communicate via a Yahoo email group. To join the group contact
Judy at
azearthdogs@cox.net. We announce practices and club meetings through this group.
If you are interested in starting your dog in earthdog events it's a very good idea to attend at least one practice before the trial. While the dog may have the instinct to go into a dark tunnel after vermin, a practice session definitely teaches them what the game is and the rules of the game.
