After the test was set up, the Honorary Test Dog, FC-AFC Slick When Wet III, handled by Ken Jackson began the series this morning at 7:11 am. Next the regular test dogs ran beginning with "Zeiss" and then "Brandy," giving the teams a good look at this test.

The first running dog for this test was #19 FC-AFC FC Old Towns Rough Country Hammer Down QA2, “Trucker,” with handler Al Arthur at 7:47 am.

The weather today had mostly cloudy overcast skies and temps in the mid 50's with some rain earlier and light winds at around 6 mph.
