W.A. State Championship Retrieving Trial Results

Postby Kerry Webster » Tue 18 Sep 2012 11:23 am

The Championships were held at a site called Spencers Brook. There is heavy cover on this site, with gullies, logs and various heights of bushes and trees. 44 dogs were entered and there was one scratching. The field was split with numbers 1 - 22 going to Ray Johnson's run (Doublerise, mark, and 2 bird not fired at or to be picked up). Dogs were out of handlers sight for most of the run. Eleven dog were eliminated on this run, just in the first group. Dogs with number 23 - 44 went to Eleanor Johnson's run (Mark, blind and walkup mark). Six dogs were out in this group on their first run.
The third run with Ray was a doublefall and blind, all in the river. Eleanor had the fourth run, a triple mark.
Fourteen dogs got through the first day and progressed. They were:
Ellishea Katos Czarda
Kadnook Dream Alil Dream
Featherhunt Joshua
Reveirter Loch Fyntalloch
Altiquin Glory
Adderslot Chief
Mhadaidh Tricky Dicky
Mhadaidh Especially Hot
Kadnook Kwik Sand
Coalsgarth Tassie Fern
Tockatunga Twist of Fate
Yorifield Tornado
Adderslot Carbo
Inkaline Nevada

The fifth run on Sunday with Ellie had a wounded rabbit which ran only a couple of metres in front of the dog sitting in the hide. There was a blind of 133 metres swimming, and a mark falling into the moving river. Four dogs failed this exercise, and so 10 dogs went through to the sixth run with Ray. This was a double blind (one pigeon, one rabbit) and a two bird. Again, all across water. Nine dogs completed the run.
