So far so good.... Its pretty cool to see all the pictures and blog of the Pre-national training. And that picture of Slider, might be the best picture of a retriever I have ever seen on-line. Hope the trial coverage is as good as this.... or better

I saw 65 run. Obviously he's through to the next round. From what I remember, pretty clean flyer; hooked the hay bail (maybe the gunner) on the first RG, stayed dry to the bird and got wet coming back; did a good job on the 2nd RG.
I remembered this dog because he's team chocolate!

Tight as a tick, as they say in East Texas. Perhaps the test will not be as tight as the diagram.

Would that be marked as 2 excellent marks or would they rate one lower for lack of desire & running around the terrain?Looks like they could pick up the two middle birds in one pass ... that could save some time.

Both test dogs did the test. Sources say it will take 2 days at 4-5 dogs an hour.
