I am so proud to annouce that NAWATA is Back If you go to the AWDF website www.awdf.net and to the members breed clubs. You will see that the NAWATA Logo is back up where it belongs. I sent the logo to the AWDF webmaster and she put it back up.

Hi Curt,
AKC does not like working dogs. They think it is cruel to shoot and kill animals. FCI has field trials and we follow their rules. AWDF is a umbrella organization that supports working dogs. Why hunting hasn't come up well go look at the AWDF breed members clubs and tell me how many dog breeds could hunt. This why it would be great to get a program for a Hunting Test sanctioned by NAWATA started.

Marcia, you said you follow the FCI rules for hunting trials. The word rules really is bothersome. Where might these rules be found and do they pertain to birds only?

It isn't a really a NAWATA rebirth. I think we just needed something someone to get the ball rolling. Living with my husband who is a Schutzhund Judge and also the AWDF President I think it is rubbing off on me. I believe in NAWATA and what it stands for. I think the NAWATA logo is just fine Curt. I think some officers in the past just got burned out. We must remember tho that these people started this organization and have alot of knowledge and I have great appreciation for them. If there are people out there that don't like NAWATA thats fine, they can go start their own organization and do their own thing.
