Thanks Kam.
These are retrieving tests involving duck work with multiple marks and a blind.
In Novice Retrieving dog (NRD) a sindle duck is thrown with a shot (dead duck) into a decoy spready @ I believe 20 yds & dog must retrieve to you, you can handle & dog may drop a few times as long as he bring to you in a 6 ft circle. (novice level)
RD, dog must remain steady at your side as a fresh killed duck is launched with a shot then a live flyer is shot at 20 & 40 yds respectively. Judge tells you to send dog & he must retrieve to hand.
RDX dog mus heel to starting point by pond edge. 2 fresh killed ducks are launched with a shot and a shot flyer at varying degrees thru a decoy spread. Dog must be steady to all 3 ducks & sent only when judge says to. You can handle but 4 refusals and you are out, dog must bring to hand. Later you again heel dog to ponds edge, you are told where a duck is located, there is no thrown duck or shot & must send dog on a cold blind. |
