Congratulations to all the place getters and the Tasmanian State Committee on putting together a successful trial. Good to see a few states represented in the placings.

Congratulations to John & Sedge, Karl & Red, Kerry & Ticket, and Josh & Sam. Another milestone in the Retrieving year passed. Here comes 2016

Congratulations to the place-getters; John, Karl, Kerry & Josh. Well done.
Well done also to the organisers and sponsors of the Championship.
I would like to personally thank Paul Littlehjohn for stepping in for me at short notice to Judge this event. I enjoyed following the runs. Thanks also to Paul and Margie for giving up their opportunity to run in the trial.
I am home from hospital but still have a few weeks healing and convalescing to do. I hope all trailers (and dogs) have a safe and relaxing holiday season and look forward to competing with you all again in 2016.
