Hunting Preserve no more
Fiddlehead Outdoors operates on a 1000+ acre site in western Maine. Fiddlehead Hunting Preserve was 400 acres of uplands and wetlands in the middle of this land. Small patch plantings enhance old fields, alder bottoms and forests to create ideal upland and wetland hunting environments. We no longer operate the hunting preserve, but the
New England Bird Dog Championship
is held on the property every late September due to the high number of upland game birds we have. Watching these finely trained athlete-dogs perform is a wonderful way to spend a day outdoors at Fiddlehead.
Dates
The Bird Dog Championship is usually held the last week-end in September..
How This Works
Visitors are welcome.
Dogs are run in braces of 2 on pre-determined 1-hour walking loops.
Each dog has a handler, an assistant and a judge.
The gallery follows behind - single-file
- and stays out of the way - while watching the dogs find, point and hold wild birds.
Come mingle with a great group of dog enthusiasts.
