BARN HUNT is an exciting new sport where dogs get to use their natural instinct to hunt rats. Your dog does not have to be a terrier to play Barn Hunt is open to all breeds and it s a recognized sport by a few organizations! A maze of straw bales is set up and there are PVC tubes hidden throughout the course some with live rats, some with dirty bedding, and some empty. To put it simply, the aim of the game is for the dog to hunt through the straw to find all the live rat tubes. But don t worry the rats aren t harmed in Barn Hunt! There are strict rules in place to keep the rats safe, and they live as pets in their off time. Most willingly climb into the tubes to work and enjoy teasing the dogs! The Barn Hunt competitions are being held in another area at the Matrix Facility on Saturday, July 1, Sunday, July 2 and Monday, July 3 rd.
