An evening Bronze Trial on the 12th December held at Murton Park Farming Museum.
This was the first time we have used this indoor area at the farming museum. It is such a fabulous space full of old farming equipment. It was a cold night and there were plenty of drafts coming through.
The search area was made up of a fraction of the space. It began at the bottom of some stairs and led down and to the left with an area that led off to the left which was a dead end. The search area included a number of different old farming machinery, and brick built old toilet , and at the end some sofas and a table with a wooden train track on.
The 1st hide was placed at the start of the search area on the left under the staircase. All dogs expect one missed this on the 1st pass. Some due to dogs pinging past it and others looked like they had picked it up but failed to locate immediately and handlers would task on.
The second hide was located in the dead end area to the left, on a cog that was on the shaft of some equipment. All dogs located this one, some immediately and others took some working.
All teams did work very well and it's so nice to see people returning and seeing them take on board previous comments and clearly have worked on areas that needed improvement.
