Actually....if anyone hasn't looked into this yet and calculated what a wonderful opportunity this will be for Specialty clubs to fill their club coffers....do so soon! Fun sport, the dogs love it, judges can judge 30 dogs an hour and all you need are signs, 4 cones, two jumps, a ring steward and someone to keep time. FAR LESS trouble and cost to put on than an agility trial with the same wonderful entry #s....OH and did I say the dogs love it????? It's not really like OB in that you can't pattern train; there are more exercises that a dog would know for a RN than a CD (moving down, finish in either direction, SCH about-turn...), and the timing aspect and variety of exercises that COULD show up, plus multiple commands and no set hand/arm position resembles agility a bit...the honor stays resemble SCH a bit...but did you know the dogs love it??????
