Thank you Stacey for inviting me to judge your level 1 trial today which was run very efficiently as always and for Katherine for scribing.

Well done to all the competitors today. There were some lovely teams with great handling

But well done to our top teams –
1st Linda and Zara
2nd Sue and Puffin
3rd Fiona and Bonnie
4th Karolina and Sypsena

Despite the dark all the teams did really well with the exterior searches. It was nice to see the dogs confidently working and the handlers reading their dogs well. We had a great mix of different dogs all working in their different ways even between to the two spaniels, Bonnie very considered and methodical and Jack who was zooming round but always working.

Well done to those who gained their Excellences today Linda and Zara, Sue and Puffin and Jessica and Merlin.

It was a pleasure to judge you all and thank you for the opportunity. Well done and keep up the good work.
