Welcome to the North American Gun Dog Association.

The North American Gun Dog Association was formed to provide bird dog owners the opportunity to hunt upland birds in a competition format. This activity can be enjoyed by friends and family of any age. It gives members the opportunity to improve their hunting skills and develop their dog's instinctive abilities.

North American Gun Dog Association (NAGDA) events are held across the country at private hunt clubs. Competition events begin in September and ends with a national championship in April.  For the results of the 2008 Nationals, click here.
