I’ve never owned a dog but my parents had dogs when I was growing up. It was great to spend some time yesterday morning as a volunteer with my local Mountain Rescue team. I was sniffed out in my hiding place by Search Dog Storm.

Knowing that there will be interest on this thread, I am re-posting my earlier text, with some updates below - all is ready, the award certificate, online activator log viewing, operational schedule view and mini-cluster to see when the stations are on-air and Realtime log entry (so that callers can see when they are “in-the-log”) has all been tested at hamlog.online and the event will start in Europe on August 1st (US later in the month as special event calls are not allocated for a full month in the US, only 1 or 2 weeks).

Although there is one special day to celebrate International Dog Day and think of the rescuers and carers of unfortunate dogs, most of the Special Event stations for IDD will be on for the whole month of August. So, you may catch GB4DOG, DA0DOG, DL0DOG, YL1DOG on any day, K2D is only on from the 21st - 26th August.
If we want to gather the dog herd - there’s no reason SOTA dogs on Summits could not coordinate a weekend day to have the “doggy - to - doggy summit” contact with each other and the special event stations! The actual International Dog Day is the 26th of August.

Different session, different dog, this time I was sniffed out by our Yorkshire Dales Search Dog Kez. If you get lost on the Yorkshire Three Peaks (G/NP-004, G/NP-005, or G/NP-010) this is the lovely doggy that will find you.
