Recognising the achievements of Newfoundlands in Working Tests
Manager: Julie Roffe
Draught Level Beginners
Judges: Kay Burridge & Kim Rhodes
There was a very good turnout with 13 entries, including a mix of experienced dogs and handlers, as well as quite a few first-timers. Most were of a very high standard, with three going on to complete Level One. Thank you to our hosts, Fenland Working Newfoundlands, and to our call stewards.
Kay and I both enjoyed the day.

Draught Level 1
Judges: Kevin Clarke & David Viney
It was a lovely day with a great turnout for the Fenland Draught Tests at Bawsey Country Park. The weather stayed dry and the wind was low, making for perfect conditions.
We had eight entries, seven of which passed. The one that failed performed well in the control section, but was let down by their handler.
Well done to everyone who took part, and to all who helped host the event.
We look forward to being invited back to judge at this event in the future.

Draught Level 2
Judges: Nicola Wheeler & Sue Sanders
We had four entrants in Level 2 today and four very nice passes, and all the teams worked well together and approached the haul calmly and carefully. The weather was ideal, and we would like to thank our haul and call stewards for their assistance. Thanks also to Julie, our Test Manager, and to all at Fenland for hosting the test and for their hospitality. Finally, thank you to the NC for inviting us to judge.

Draught Level 3
Judges: Lynn Whiting & Ken Richards
Two entries, both of which failed due to handler errors.
Tight leads, which were not really needed. Change of pace: normal was the same as slow. Both dogs did what was expected of them. Watch out for tight leads when they are not needed. Both dogs are capable of passing this level.
Thank you to our hosts and call stewards.

Draught Level 4
Judges: Jeffrey Burridge & Greg Roffe
We had five entrants, but unfortunately no passes. Each dog performed some great manoeuvres in the ring.
One dog made it through to the haul, but sadly failed on the backup.
We would like to thank all the entrants — it was a pleasure to judge at this event.
Thank you to the Newfoundland Club for the invitation.
