The American Field has followed the field trial sport in America since 1874. The bird dog field trial pastime encompasses several facets of the game, from horseback stakes to walking events, on every upland gamebird— quail, pheasant, prairie chicken, grouse, woodcock, chukar and Hungarian partridge.

Each week The American Field provides its readers with the very latest news on purebred sporting dogs and field trial competition results. Every issue carries photos of winners, stories of owners and handlers, detailed event descriptions, and an advertising section for the sale of goods, services and announcements of upcoming trials.

The Field Dog Stud Book is the oldest purebred dog registry in the United States helping dog owners with authentic documentation, registration, certified pedigrees and DNA services.
