Draught Tests - All Levels (Beginners to Level 4)

11 & 12 November 2017
Grangewaters Activity Centre, Buckles Lane, South Ockendon, Essex

I would like to thank everyone who attended the test this weekend. Despite a very wet start on the Saturday, things went well and the weather eventually dried up.

Thanks you to all the judges, stewards, entrants and the Grangewaters team; without you all these events could not happen.

Amanda Arnold, Test Manager

We had six entries for Beginners on Saturday and we were pleased everyone passed. There were some really good passes amongst them but also there were some handlers who must remember to talk to their dogs more and not use the lead!
We would like to thank everyone at Grangewaters for organising another excellent weekend of tests but also send our special thanks to our call steward on Saturday who did such an excellent job. Well done.

We had five entries today, including a brace, unfortunately three teams didn't make it, with two getting up during the down stay. The two teams that went out onto the haul, were very good in their teamwork, which showed.
The weather was sunny and windy, perfect for draught.
Thank you for the invite to judge at this event, along with my co-judge. Thanks to Grangewaters for a lovely day.
