Completing the Entry Form Using the BHA Website
(Easiest and most accurate method to filling entry form.)
​
You can create an entry form for the trial using the Barn Hunt Association, LLC, website. This form will automatically populate with you and your dog’s correct information. It will also calculate your entry fees. This feature does not enter you into a trial. It simply creates a customized entry form for you to print and mail or email to the club.
Here is a video tutorial on how to create a mail-in entry form through the Barn Hunt Association website.

Completing the Entry Form Using the Entry Form Attached to the Premium
The entry form attached to the premium is fillable. A shaded message bar indicates presence of fillable fields. You must be sure that information EXACTLY MATCHES the information you have filed with the BHA OR YOUR RESULTS FROM THE TRIAL WILL NOT BE RECORDED. Login to your account on the BHA website to be sure information you list matches. Most errors are made by incorrectly matching the dog’s name (even a hyphen or comma will kick your results out), BHA number, height of dog, or not signing the agreement on the entry form.
