Great commentary, as always, about the dog and handler's process. I'm stealing "crottering." Was at a trail a couple weeks ago where I witnessed many dogs multitasking. Question: What told you the first room was cleared? After seeing how hard that one hide was (and your observation odor was all over the room), I would worry there is another hide in the room that was making that room difficult. Gems: wait for the deep push for inaccessible. When you get a squishy alert, leave and come back.
Great run, great commentary, very informative, thank you! Good tips I hadn't known.
