As a team, we try to go to various locations a number of times throughout the year, to develop our own skills and to train our own dogs. Most recently, we spent four days in the Mountains of South Wales.
The terrain is completely different to what the dogs are used to, and it takes a day or two for them to adjust. But, by the end of the four days, they are showing confidence over the bracken, heather and steep inclines.
As you can imagine, the weather threw all sorts at us!
