Someone (maybe more than one?) suggested video taping all the temperament tests. Maybe they could be grouped with 20 on a tape. Owners could have an option of ordering or buying a tape when they do a test, or receive a number that could be used to order the tape with their test later. Someone interested in breeding to a dog could order the tape with that dog's test so they could see how the dog reacted to each section of the test. Could be a money maker for the PC while providing everyone an option to see how any dog or bitch tested, whether or not they even make it to a national. I still think you need to see more than just a gun test to judge a dog's temperament - and we wouldn't need to all bring ear plugs to the national to keep from going deaf! I also don't see how it can be fairly applied - the first dog is reacting to a single shot, while the last dog has heard constant firing for a sustained period.
