NOTE:
"... fishing villages along Newfoundland's rocky shores became known for producing a hardy strain of water dogs. By the mid-1800s, Newfoundland's retrievers were in high demand for their intelligence and strong swimming ability. As a result of this popularity, Newfoundland is the origin of several modern retrievers." Bill Nichol, Born to Hunt:

Are there any clubs in St. John's area that get together to train Labrador retrievers for bird and or rabbit hunting?
I have a dog who is 18 months, she is my first dog. I have done some training from a book but would like to find a club or course to enroll in.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
