Tarka Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Is anyone here going to the Schutzhund Nationals next weekend at Horsley Park Showground? I'm thinking about it. Do people normally bring their dogs with them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ianto Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 I'm going on Saturday morning to watch the BH and IPO 1 & II obedience. Which parts do you want to see Kavik? I'd like to watch some tracking but it starts at 6am, too early for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonElite Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 Im only interested in the hard IPOIII stuff ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kavik Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 I want to see the protection! And some obedience too 6am for tracking - well that is WAY too early for me! At the moment it looks like it will probably be Sunday as I may be working on Saturday. So maybe I'll see you there myszka? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

szafir Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 for those who went - how was it? were there any standouts at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kavik Posted September 4, 2005 Author Share Posted September 4, 2005 I thought it was great! The Mals and Shepherds really did work quite differently. You could tell which exercises must be more difficult to train. You could tell when the dogs were really having a good time! Were you there today malinwar? Did you see me - I was wearing a green raincoat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malinwar Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 yeh i seen u and myszka? :rolleyes: i dunno i just wasnt overly impressed with the day, but im just probably being picky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malinwar Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 szafir - there were no real stand outs i believe the belgians performed extremely better than the german sheps, would of liked to have seen some rottys and dobes there aswell :rolleyes: was good to catch up with people i knew there but lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kavik Posted September 4, 2005 Author Share Posted September 4, 2005 This was the first trial I have seen in real life and not video, so I am not sure what the standard usually is, but I thought it looked impressive. The Belgians were quicker and fierier than than the Sheps. I also would have liked to see some of the other breeds there - maybe an Am Bulldog or Cane Corso or Amstaff would have been really cool!

krat Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 a couple of questions if i may? are they seperated into breed groups? can only specific breeds do schutzhund? what are the requirements to start? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonElite Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 To me there were 2 stand outs. One a male belgian that did everything with a speed of light and so ubelivably happy to be there and work. Just coudnt helpt himself, and wanted to jump out of his skin for the handler. Another was a dog that did everything nicely but it was clear how the dog was trained. It feared the handler......... It was great to watch it, certainly very impressive. Malinwar why did you come over to say hello? Yes it was me with Kavik. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malinwar Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 myszka - because im a big girl :rolleyes: lol i wouldnt have known what to say couple of questions if i may? are they seperated into breed groups? can only specific breeds do schutzhund? what are the requirements to start? the only groups there are is the 3 diferent schutzhund levels, it depends on the club on the breeds, i havent seen anything apart from shepherds rottys and dobes compete, but maybe at club training they have different breeds? to start up all you needs is a dog who likes to play with lots of drive, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
