Awdf trophies and a training observation - Page 1

Today I had an euphony.  Yes another another one.

Many of us wrestle with many things in life such as our conscience or putting on socks.  I believe I have come with a cure for one of the ailments that troubles many in the schutzhund world. Getting your dog cleaner in the blind.  Yes over the years I have forged many creative performances that are indelibly burned into the minds of many.  Unfortunately while performances were truly unusual they were not exactly what the judge was looking for. While I was home recuperating from having my plumber performing surgery at the Laundromat on me. (hey with my HMO I was just happy they did it indoors) I performed some statistical analysis of when my dogs over the years have been dirty during the protection phase and I came up with a conclusion that no one can argue with.  None of my dogs have ever lost points while they were sleeping.  Sure there may be  things to be worked out but If I could get my dogs to do protection while sleeping I am sure I would lose less points for being dirty.  Yes they may run blinds slower but I usually lose those points anyway.

I have a few things to work out but I know that statistics don't lie and I could be on to a major advancement in training techniques.

Well if you really you really want to see some dogs that actually work they are  supposed to the AWDF is coming up soon.  The Free Dog folks are getting ready to put on a splendid show even if the announcer needs a little work.  All proceeds from this event will be Donated to the AWDF which is a huge deal and they do need to be commended for it. So support the working dog in America and sponsor a trophy there are still some left but supplies are limited
