"Dulle's"
obedience
guide
(Everything is well tested by "Dulle" himself)
To
all you dogs out there who thinks that obedience
has
to be...... obedience!
# 1:
Heel
without leach
Here
you can do almost anything!
At
a competition, noone can be angry at you!
When
the judge says: "run!", you
just....
run! The faster the better.
Or
jump up and down time after time and
bark
the loudest you can.
#2:
Sending
to a square
Very
nice indeed!
You
are all alone out there and that gives you a lot
of
freedom to do what you like.
The
first thing to do is to run to the first marking.
If
your'e not in the mood that day - finish it
all
quickly by simply lay down and chew it!
Or
- if you want to make a good impression: take that
marking,
and the others (that marks out the square)
with
you back.
Everyone
is going to be SOOO happy!
#3:
Scent
discrimination
That
small piece of wood that has a different smell
is
lovely to chew on, but I would advice you to
go
a little further than that:
EAT
IT!
Swallow
as fast as you can and look as if you
didn't
understand what happened.
#4:
Jump
over a fence
To
sit and wait is boring.
Jump
as fast as you can
over
and over again to show how good you
can
do it.
They
will all be so impressed!
#5:
Retrieve
a dumbell
Here
you also work far away and that gives
you
all the freedom you need to show off!
First
of all: retrieve when YOU want to, not when told.
Second:
take the dumbell and either run away with it
or
you can eat it up.
Easy!
#6:
Stand/sit/lay
down at a distance
It
is always nice for the audience to see a dog that
does
this with perfection, but it's far more fun to see
a
dog that has FUN while doing it, right!?
So
every time you hear "stand", "sit" or "lay down"
you
choose one of the other alternatives.
"Stand",
for exemple can be "sit" and so on.
You
have six tries, if you do it wrong all six times,
everyone
will laught their brains out, guaranteed!
Other tips:
It's
always nice to be friendly to the judge.
If
you are bored out there, just go to him/her and
look
sweet, and see if they have any candy for you.
Try
to kiss them if you don't get anything at the first try.
They
just can't be angry at someone that nice.
It
is fun to compete, but it can be even funnier.
Try
these tips and satisfaction is guaranteed!
