HPR FT INFO is the one stop shop for everything you need to know about Hunt Point Retrieve (HPR) Field Trials, Working Tests and Pointing Tests. You can also find training resources, such as recommended online videos, DVDs, books, regional training groups and professional trainers.
This website was originally set up in 2002 by Mick Phillips and for more than 20 years provided the HPR community with information on where trials and tests were being held and what the results were. The website also listed training groups and other useful information. Mick sadly passed away in February 2024, so having been in touch with his daughter Tina, Michael Rogers has now taken over the domain name and will aim to continue to provide a similar service to the HPR community. If you have any feedback or comments on the site please fill out our contact form. HPR FT INFO is kindly supported by Test Valley Lanyards

In Memory of Mick Phillips
Tina, Mick's daughter said: "He enjoyed doing this website for ALL societies and clubs he would be glad it's carrying on. Dad loved seeing dogs work on the shooting field, doing what they were bred for. He never felt happier then when he saw handlers succeed with their dogs whether it was a new dog or handler at a test succeeding with a retrieve, actually getting any aged dog to swim, win their first field trial or become a Champion. He just loved helping HPRs cope with their handlers and visa versa." |
