Forager and Jara had a nother day out , this time at Dunsford Show where we had a charity stall. it was a lovely day, slightly too hot, but both boys wore their cool coats all day and barely panted once, they were so efficient at cooling. If only they made them for humans!! Anyhow we had a book sale, and a hamper competition (won by Mrs May of Ide) to help raise funds. We met lots of new people and some really good contacts in the National park who are keen to use K9SD to hel

Baffle had a really intense training session today, with a training excercise on Mothecombe Estate, that included tracking on the beach! A two mile trail was laid by "Rebus" a lurcher, and his owner Maria, across cliff tops, through woods, through agricultural land and along tarmac lanes, ending up on the beach. He ran it 30 mins cold, and found the "lost" Rebus in an hour. Very pleasing result!

She was very scared and we kept the hound well away as the owner went to try and call her in but she fled. We then tracked her for another 8 mil

He tracked the spaniel from the woods through fields and back into the grounds of the hotel, via a golf course. He
