Honor in RE Question
During the Honor Exercise, are we allowed to continue to talk/praise our dogs?
Also, if the dog shifts feet but doesn't break the stay by changing position, is that passing?

Re: Honor in RE Question
99% sure you can talk to your dog during the honor. I seem to recall my dog trainer talking about how she had to keep reminding her dog to remain in position while flies buzzed around her head.
 I watched honor for a day when I was ring stewarding and, as long as the dog remained in the sit/down, they passed. I don't think shifting their weight affects it. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

Re: Honor in RE Question
I thought they can shift (ie, sphinx down to legs off to the side), but yeah they can't like sit up and then lie back down.

Re: Honor in RE Question
Jamie and Liesje are correct. I was also ring stewarding at a recent show and tasked with watchng the honor team. I went over it specifically with the judge since I have not been in the ring since the rule change.
Talking/praising is allowed. |
