leopuppy04 Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Actually, I do wonder sometimes what people think when I train my dog with a bit of hose as I truly have seen a couple of people frown at me, as if I am a cruel trainer. Oh come on Arya - WE all know the truth of what kind of a trainer you are!!! I bet that is how you got your Novice pass and 1st isn't it!!! Belting her with a hose!!!! ;) :cry: I can't think of a reason Tangwyn - in Agility dogs are run 'naked' coz they can't have tags on their collars for safety reasons - so running off can't be the *only* reason?!?!

Actually, nope, it's the old tyre lever behind the car that works every time I can't think of a reason Tangwyn - in Agility dogs are run 'naked' coz they can't have tags on their collars for safety reasons - so running off can't be the *only* reason?!?! Yeah, come to think of it that is true, isn't it! Perhaps nobody's ever thought to suggest removing the collars before. I think it would be good :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helen Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 My last obedience trial in novice when we got to off lead heeling the judge said remove your lead. I took the collar off too out of habit and the judge nearly had heart failure LOL. I had to put the collar back on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Retrieving Trials dogs aren't permitted to wear a collar either - its habit to work the dog "nude" and I'm used to taking it all off and handing it to the steward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
