hAPPY rATTERS Trials
Rattie Gras Trial: 2/21-2/22 (Evanston)
Join us in Evanston for a two sport weekend of warm indoor fun!
City Sniffers Rat Hunt Club, a division of City Sniffers Dog Sports Training, will host a 2-day Happy Ratters trial on February 21-22, 2026, at Rex's Place in Evanston, IL. Join us to hunt for rats in tubes in an "urban" setting – no straw! This is a very welcoming competition venue for beginners, and you can always treat or play with your dog at the rat.
The Happy Ratters trial is also a companion event to our Winter Happy Ratters Games League, running on two Friday nights (2/13 & 2/20) at Urban Pooch Training & Fitness Center.
Special awards on tap: Judge's Choice, Happiest Ratter, The Underdog, Golden Years Luminary, Perfect Sniff Day, Fastest Hunt, Sloth Award ("Phew - just in time!), Bridge & Burrow Bonus (most B&Bs performed in one run)
