Pealkiri on täpne, et startisime, sest tulemust me kahjuks ei saanud, kuna suunamisülesanne muutus Sädel jooksvalt otsinguks, aga see polnud see, mida teha oli vaja :)

We participated with Säde in Nome-B test, but unfortunately did not get any result as the first blind she turned into blind search and we did not get any further.

Results of second day: Beginners and Winner class rosettes are shared out well 
Together with Katri, we organised NOU and Nome-B tests on 1st and 2nd of July. On 1st July there were 8 participants in NOU (Retrievers Qualifying Test) and I was helping Katri when she did her judging apprentice with our Finnish judge Tuija Hukkanen. In the afternoon of 1st day, we started with the Nome-B (cold game) test with Open class. There were 5 participants in Open, and 2 of them passed with gradings.

On July 2nd, we continued with the 8 Beginners class competitors out of which 6 passed and we finished the nice day with Winners Class with beautiful work of Belinda Blue-Eyed Babe At Basteta with Milda and they got well deserved 1st grade!

Thank you to everyone for helping and to all the participants taking part!
