The team’s Search dog handler, Dave Marsh and his dog Chi journeyed up to Derwentwater Youth Hostel, Keswick to assist in SARDA England’s annual assessments over the weekend of the 13th – 16th January.
Here follows Dave’s report of the event:
Over 70 people attended in the form of guest assessors, assessors from SARDA England and of course the all important “bodies” on whom a lot of responsibility and appreciation is placed.
Over the 3 day course 6 people were assessed working their dogs through 6 areas of up to 2 hours duration in time.
I am pleased to announce that the following gained Novice Grade enabling them to be called out.
