Change Of Position In Novice

[ness]

I had one who thought at the Royal they were going to explode and needed careful investigation . Will say back in the old days of novice in our first trial she thought it was something to be targetted when we went down to do the recall.

Exactly - now they actually have a white marker on the ground (

Argh the old land mines - has anybody had a dog that refuses to sit or stand on them????

and no your dog doesn't have to - just some think they will self explode and refuse to go near them

No.... but Darcy picks them up and tries to "return" them to me. And if I don't take it then she attempts to give it to the judge. Apparently retreiving little white flat things is more fun than heel patterns.

For Faxon they are something that needs serious investigation. They are more important than anything else we are supposed to be doing heeling, recall, etc.

However this is only when we are in the ring trialling. If he sees them when we are practicing he totally ignores them!

Wow, my dog has never ever even so much as batten an eye lid at those markers on the ground. I don't think she even sees them!

Oh the joys of trialling.
