We are at Andy Kahn's Butterfly Pond. This was the location for Tests 6
and 7. For this Water Blind, the dogs will be crossing several lines
from these previous tests. We are once again on the road facing south.
The pond runs north to south in a valley below the mat. On the southwest
corner of the pond, a point runs north. On the tip of the point a strip
of marsh is in the water. About 10 feet from the tip is a small island,
they should swim up a cove – exit the pond and go to a pile of sticks
240 yards from the mat to complete this blind. The judges will allow
lateral movement in this test. The test is taking approximately five
minutes per dog to complete the blind.
