From NACSW - ORT updates starting in 2025….

The most recent Rule Book changes published on August 15, 2024 included several updates to ORTs that will go into effect January 1, 2025.
After collecting data from ORTs across the US for the first 6 months of 2024 we determined that the 3 minute time limit could be shortened to 2:30 without significantly affecting the ORT pass rate. The 2:30 time limit puts the ORT tests in line with the NW1 Container search time limit. Shortening the time limit by 30 seconds will allow ORT Hosts to add additional runs to their ORT event without impacting the overall length of the event.
We will change the required distance between the ORT boxes from 4' to 3', but distance may vary depending on conditions or the environment. This change in distance will give ORT hosts more flexibility in ORT locations and the ability to accommodate second dogs at locations that may not have had the space to previously offer re-sets.
It will be possible for all 3 tests to be set up in the same search area, provided the tests are separated by barriers so it is clear to the participant which set up is being used for the current test. At no time will multiple odor boxes be placed in the search area. The only area that will contain an odor box will be the area being used for the immediate test. Teams will still only test on one odor at a time and all teams will continue to use the same set up for the same odor test.
Questions should be sent to mailto:[email protected].

Had several students playing in a CPE trial today in Chatham, IL. There were a lot of Q’s for the day in multiple levels and some new titles. But, most of all the camaraderie of our group was reason to celebrate. Just sorry we didn’t get our group photo this time. Congrats to all who came today and good luck tomorrow. Thank you Pawsitive Training Zone for the best atmosphere for scent work!
