Additional information about the hound test can be found HERE.
Note: Pre-Book testing online.
Booking can be made on the day, but Internet service maybe limited, so preference is to pre-book.
All payments are via EFT (Credit Card)
The VHH have confirmed that the GMA have setup a test booking session for your event in our MyGL online booking system. To book into the test, hunters will need to create a MyGL account.
Information on how to create a MyGL can be found at https://www.gma.vic.gov.au/licencing/my-game-licence-mygl
With regards to puppy authorisation, this can now be done via MyGL and applicants do not have to have a MyGL account. GMA will have plenty of tablets available for use on the day and our staff can assist hunters to complete this process.
Hunters will need have an email address to complete this process. Information on how to register can be found here: https://licensing.gma.vic.gov.au/hounds/
