These events are open to the general public and anyone can have a go. Although you almost always see gundog breeds competing, the tests are seldom restricted only to recognised breeds of gundog. Frequently they are open to any breed of dog who will do the test (ask at the ring if you are unsure – the judges are often delighted to include a dog who will do the work, even if their breeding is obscure!)
Gundog Scurries are usually a test of speed. As long as the dog obeys the general rules of the test, the fastest dog wins. However, they are also a test of control, obedience and training and of the ability of the dog to use its initiative.
