Gun Change - Conditions - 10th Series

We had our first gun change after dog # 9 completed her 10th series at 10:25 am.

Dog #5 is running out of order to give time to handlers with multiple dogs.

The rain has continued on and off all morning, and the temperatures have dropped a bit. Despite the adverse conditions the dog work seeming to be consistent and good.
