Recognize teams of hunting dogs for searches across hunting districts and hunting communities

If you wish to have yourself and your dog recognized as a trailing team for trailing ungulates across hunting districts and hunting communities, certain requirements must be met.

Hunting dog teams that meet certain recognition requirements are authorized to search across hunting districts and hunting communities once they have been officially recognized.

The application for recognition must be submitted to the higher hunting authority.

The upper hunting authority publishes a list of recognized hunting dog teams
