Test Dogs started out this series on Sunday morning at 6:41 am, beginning with "Valley," handled by Joel Bodenman and then "Gauge," handled by Julie Cole. Monday morning there was a single test dog ran, "Valley," and then the test resumed.

The first running dog of this series was #66 FC-AFC BOURGEOIS’ OUISIE, NOW I’M GETTING MY TURN AT BAT, “George,” with handler Thierry Mahon. They came to the line at 7:20 am on Sunday morning.

The weather at the start of this series was 59 degrees with sunny skies and little to no breeze. Temps heated up into the 90s on both days with similar conditions. A heat advisory was in effect and extra precautions were take to keep the dogs cool. Monday morning when we finished up the series the weather was much the same, quite warm, in the 70s and hazy conditions.
