The obedience tests are made to evaluate your dog's temperament, nerves, drive, control, trainability, and of course your dog's
willingness to work and to take direction from the handler (owner).
The obedience includes a variety of heeling and field exercises. Heeling is done both on and off leash, both in the open field and
in a group of people. Recalls: The dog must return to the handler quickly and happily and sit in front, and then to return
to heel position at the handler's left upon command. Retrieving: using dumbbells of various weights.
K9 obedience also includes "gun shot test:. This test shall evaluate your dog's nerves and sound sensitivity. Some dogs demonstrate
gun-shyness which is a good indicator of weak character and nerves. (These dogs are normally dismissed from the trial)
