What
do I need to train
my hunting dog?
- You
must have a State
Park Admission sticker on your
vehicle. Cost for
cars with Wisconsin
plates is $7/day
or $25/year; for
cars without Wisconsin
plates the cost
is $10/day or $35/year.
- Anyone
who uses live ammunition
or handles live
birds must purchase
a Training License
($25.00). You
do not need a training
license if you
are using starter
pistols and bumpers. No
one under 12 years
of age may purchase
a dog training
license.
- There
are specific areas
in which dogs are
trained. Occasionally
areas may be closed,
always call or
stop at the Entrance
Station to check
availability. No
training or trials
may take place
outside of these
designated areas.
- The
Class 2 grounds
are closed for
nesting season
April 15th-July
31st.
- You
may not use the
Service roads or
the "Runway" without
a pass, available
when you purchase
your training license. Please
check signs at
service road entrances
to determine their
accessibility status.
- All
birds used in training
must be obtained
from a licensed
game farm. Receipts
for birds must
be carried “on
person” and
shown on request. All
captive, wild birds
must be banded
with a DNR leg
band prior to release—given
to you when you
purchase a training
license. Bands
must be kept in
vehicles and not
on your person. Training
licenses must be
kept on your person
and shown on request.
- The
field trial/training
ground is a “carry
in—carry
out” area. Spent
birds, crates,
refuse and plastic
ribbon markers
must be removed
from the grounds
after training
or trials are completed.
- No
cutting of grounds
vegetation is permitted
unless pre-authorized
by the park superintendent.
What
do you do if I
arrive and the
office is closed?
You
may not self register
for a dog training
license. If you
already have an
approved license
and don’t
have vehicle admission
and still want
to train you must
self-register or
be subject to a
fine.
Directions
to self register:
There
is a labeled self-registration
box located next
to the ice machine
at the Entrance
Station. Lift
the lid and there
are arrows on the
lid indicating
which envelope
to use for camping/vehicle
admission stickers
or trail passes
or hunting. The
registration and
envelope are all
one form. Please
fill out the registration
legibly and completely. There
is a fee schedule
located on the
wall of the building
(just above the
lid), place the
correct amount
(we take checks
or cash) in the
envelope. Remove
the top copy and
place it on your
vehicle dash (for
camping and vehicle
admission) or on
your person (for
trail or hunting
passes). Peel
off the strip,
fold it over and
seal the envelope. Put
it in the slot
in the yellow post. If
you want an annual
sticker or annual
trail pass, make
sure we can read
your name and address
and put the correct
amount in the envelope.
We will mail the
sticker to you. If
you do not self-register,
you will be subject
to a fine.
