Judges report 

Bronze pm 

The search area was an indoor horse feed storage barn with 2 vans inside. The search was started from 1/5 way in taking out the front of the barn and the front of the vehicles.

One hide was on the back bumper of one van the second was and the bottom of a pallet of feed on the left near the wall. Dogs found a mixture of each hide but only two found both, ( one on gun oil one on clove) we saw alot of very good searches with just moments where dogs skipped past one hide, either through not covering all areas or just not committing. 

Silver am 

The search area was the indoor warehouse used to store horse feed including two vans.

One hide was on the bottom of the roller shutter door near the start and the other was tucked in the far corner on a gas bottle , there was a fair amount of clutter in this corner so dogs had to work right into the corner.

A really good standard of searching and teamwork, only the winner found both hides, again as with bronze there were some really good searches but handlers just didn’t quite search all the areas or dogs - particularly those that started to the right and came up to the first hide quickly, blanked the hide. The hides are set to encourage good area coverage at silver and that just caught a few today as they were accessible if everywhere was searched.
