Galinka was being asked before and even had a short practice to prepare for the test, Qannik was only asked this week since there was a place available due to someone stepping out.
This test is also needed to get to your license of obedience and close that chapter, and to be able to compete on events of obedience.
Galinka didn't make it unfortunately ... she only failed on one part ... and this part is some that Husky's are know to have problems with, Qannik also had some problems with it but managed to get it right after some stirred commands from me. ;)
Here's a short list on how the test is setup ...
1. line up for the chip checkup (or tattoo) ...
2. lined up following, then walk into and through a group of people without the dog jumping up on the people ...
3. the dog has to sit closely to his boss while the group of people close in on them in a small circle ...
4. leaving your dog at a distance and leave ... then you get closed in by the people in a small circle (this is where Galinka didn't succeed in and Qannik had some problems with), after that you have to call your dog and he has to come to you into the circle (this while passing the other people), I think this one was the hardest for most of the dogs
5. the dog gets lined up to a fence and you have to go out of sight so the dog can't see you, then a group of people passen by followed by a group of dogs ...
6. (or 4) you have to walk with the dog in a group pass the dogs that are lined up at a fence ...
7. crossing from dog by dog (two ways) ...
8. crossing a runner, biker and a car in the opposite direction ...
9. and in the same direction ...
All in all quite an impressive course I think ... ;)
