The Blackhawk Retriever Club is dedicated to the advancement of all purebred retriever breeds as working dogs through conducting regular training events for club members, educating owners and handlers, and hosting AKC field events. However, we appreciate any well trained hunting dog and the value they serve in the field to retrieve game. Anyone is welcome to be involved regardless of the dog they own, if any. We are an equal opportunity organization!

BRC members enjoy organized training events where they can learn from experienced dog trainers and handlers. Some members have over 30 years of experience training retrievers for hunting, trialing and testing. The club has agreements for the use of several pieces of real estate for training and events.
