He retrieved both intermediate articles and his finish glove, noticed but wasn't fooled by the cross tracks, and worked across a paved road, under a fence and through 2 boggy areas with water nearby (his bugaboo). He received lots of compliments from the judges and spectators too!"
We are very proud of this team!
