8th Series – Double Land Blind
22 Dogs Started this Series


Test Dogs started out this series at 7:09 am, beginning with "Jake" and then "Boogie." This gave the handlers a look at this Double Land Blind in action.

Our first running dog #85. FC-AFC RIMFIRES ONCE INNA BLUE MOON, “Blue,” BLM, with handler Al Arthur came to the line at 7:45 am.

The weather this morning started off crisp and cool at 42 degrees and clear skies. It warmed up to 58 degrees with sunshine by the time the test was complete a couple hours later.

Since this was a Blind there aren't any stats to report on ...

Our last running dog for this Series was dog #82. NFC-CNFC TRULINE’S JUST FLOYD, “Floyd,” YLM, with handler Amie Henninger. They completed the test at 9:04 am.

22 dogs were sent from the line in this fast moving Series today, taking a total of 1 hours and 19 minutes, which averages out to be just over 3.5 minutes per dog!

We are moving on to the 9th Series now! There is a bit of travel time and then set-up time when we get there, so Stay Tuned! All 22 dogs were called back to the 9th – Great Job everyone!
