Canadian Master National

Tundra is now a National Master Hunter!  He passed a week long series of tests where only 18 of the 40 dogs entered passed.

 

Day one land series

This was a triple with a blind up the middle.

 

Star didn't make it though the tests but did some nice work.

 

Day 2 water series
This was an interrupted triple with the first two birds being in line.  The blind was through the middle.

Here is Star mesmirized by the mojo where she missed seeing the long bird and ended our National journey, which just means we get to go to Quebec next year :0)

Day 4 land series

 

 This was a walkup with an honour, triple and two blinds.  Star was test dog for this and stepped on the marks did a nice job on the first blind and had a little trouble with the blind over the old fall.

So far this summer

Its been a very busy summer.  We've been doing some judging and a lot of  training and trying to keep cool.

I noticed I forgot to post Tundra's double header in the Master at the HHrc trial in June.  Star also ran one day and passed as well.

Star also picked up another Master pass at LOC.

Other than that we've been just trying to keep cool :0)

At the beach....

and at home with the pool and hose....

Hope everyone is enjoying their summer!

Master pass #6

This Master test was held by the Millcreek RC and was a fun test.  Live flyers were released for the quarter.  You can see the bird up in the sky above Tundra.  It actually came down and flew right in front of him and Chris used his second whistle as Tundra eyed up that bird.

Pheasants were used on the land series, was nice for a change.

There was a nice water series with a breaking bird.  Over all a great day with nice weather and friends!
