8th Series – Update & Conditions – Gun Change
We have just finished the gun change and everybody has cleared the line. The next running dog is #63 – Nitro.
The cloud cover continues to keep lighting conditions similar to the conditions at the start. The temperature is nearing 60 degrees and winds are NW about 6 mph.
We are averaging a little over 4 dogs per hour. This test is a demanding and challenging for the handler and dog alike. There have been multiple dogs handled and the terrain makes handling quite tricky as dogs get behind the berms and water obstacles.
