Overview

Mission

The Organization provides facilities for members to train and test their dogs, as well as to educate the public on land conservation.

What it reported doing in 2025

Three types of trials are held: Informal trials are for training dogs to compete in the Licensed Field and Hunt Test Trials, where the dogs compete for AKC Championship points and titles.

Operating model

Revenue model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
