Established in 1950 as a field trial club, the Port Arthur Retriever Club has become a group of retriever owners, who hunt and live in the Beaumont-Port Arthur area. Areas of interest for our members include obedience, hunt tests, field trials and of course hunting. We continue to work together in an effort to improve our own abilities and those of our dogs while having fun at the same time.
Each year the club is proud to hold two AKC sanctioned field trials, one derby/qualifying event and two AKC licensed hunt tests.
We are now able to offer three seperate areas for training and testing with some of the most challenging technical water available in the area. Our club continues to work in providing one of the premier testing/training facilities on the Gulf Coast. .
We welcome all newcomes to the sport and encourage all retriever owners to spend the necessary time to train their dog and be the best that they can be.
Membership gives you access to our wonderful training grounds all year long.
