Protection work pics

[CorvusCorax]

As promised, pictures from the Irish GSD national trials.

Obedience work

Searching hides

Hold and bark

Short work

Back transport (walk along behind helper, control exercise)

Long attack

Apologies, meant to get one of the flight into the long attack, where dog runs right down to bottom of the field to helper, it looks amazing, but was called back to do paperwork - next time!

Hope you like

SeaView, sadly if I tried that with my boy he would look up at me and go 'Oh look, a man with a big arm is shouting and waving a stick, how funny!'
We'll stick to the easy stuff

Love the last picture!

MM - yes, not the numbers we had hoped for, but a great day, especially as we are such a young club!


Maggiesmum - that is just as much as I could get with my poor photography skills, some of the work was spectacular

Blackcob, thanks so much

Wowsers! Somehow I don't see Ruby being able to jump that high - she is not the most agile of creatures! Its amazing to watch though isn't it? When I watch my friend training his dogs I just stand there staring, for hours!!

Ah, you never know, I didn't think B would ever do the things he can do now (see even more posts, below

- we had a bit of a weekend

)

I am going to give him one more crack at the protection now that we have our first qualification over and done with, but if he doesn't bite (pardon the pun

) I am going to try him with tracking instead.

I agree, I could watch it all day, I love the courage, and the control, that is what the sport is all about for me

 

[Demolition_Derby]

I asked on your other post what the next plans for him were but you just answered me here

! I remember you said you had 'issues' with him not biting - does he just not have any interest in it at all?
