Scurries come in all shapes and sizes but the aim of them is always the same, for a dog to retrieve a dummy in the quickest time possible.
Scurries range from a straightforward marked dummy to more challenging exercises such as the ‘pick & mix’, where only certain dummies should be picked and some even have a distraction element.
These exercises provide fun for both the handler and dog whilst also testing your dog’s abilities in the atmosphere of a gundog competition.
You can find BASC scurry events at shows and game fairs all over the country. We also run regular gundog training and husbandry events, open to both members of BASC and non-members.
Scurry dates for 2024 will appear here.
