 Welcome to the Waterloo Amateur Retriever Club (WARC). We are an AKC licensed club and a community of retriever owners with a common interest in hunt tests, field trials, and hunting retrievers. Our club's members are based out of the Austin, Round Rock, and surrounding areas.
The club gathers during the month for retriever training days, hosts two AKC hunt tests and a snake avoidance/snake proofing clinic annually.
The Waterloo Amateur Retriever Club hosts monthly meetings to discuss upcoming events, club business, and to educate members on retriever topics ranging from veterinary health to retriever training of all levels. We welcome anyone interested in gaining more knowledge about retriever related events, retriever training, and hunt tests.
For more information, please contact the club's President, Rick Greer (

Time and location is subject to change, so please check your emails and this site prior to heading out to train. We welcome prospective members to join us to learn more about what our retriever club has to offer you and as a way for you to meet our current members.
***If there have been recent heavy rains, please be aware that the fields contain a slick, clay soil that can make passage nearly impossible (even for 4x4 vehicles). If in doubt, do not drive out into the fields.
Please exercise caution and common sense with the extreme fire danger conditions. Dry grasses contacting hot exhaust manifolds can ignite and fires can spread rapidly in these dry conditions. Contact 911 in case of fire. |
