  • “Sarge” Achieves Senior Hunter Title

    September 21, 2025 / Steve and Betsy Surprenant

    Victory’s Staff Sergeant “Sarge” earned her Senior Hunter title at the Keystone AKC Retriever Hunt Test held at Mt. Ararat Farm in Port Deposit, MD. The test made full use of the excellent grounds and offered a true challenge for the dogs. Sarge marked cleanly and handled her blinds well, demonstrating the teamwork and consistency that have been the focus of her training. Thanks are due to the training partners who provided support along the way, the judges for designing a fair and thoughtful test, the workers for their efforts in the field, and the Keystone Retriever Club for hosting a smooth and well-run event.
