Bronze Trial held at Beadle Sports and Social community Centre.
This was held indoors. The search area consisted of half of the hall area which just had stacks of chairs and tables round the perimeter.
This then led into a carpeted seating / bar area.
Both hides were located in the bar area, one at the far left under a table leg and the other located on a bar stool to the right as people entered the area.
Some handlers clearly expected there to be a hide in each area causing them to spend too much time in a blank area highlighting the importance of using their time effectively and trusting their dog.
All teams worked well and it was nice to see teams returning.
I was exceptionally pleased with the standard of line handling and team work. Certainly some teams are ready to face some new challenges.
