Obey the Toad.
I'm thinking of doing one of these tests with Jack this year. It would be interesting to see how he does. Has anyone done this/know about them?
I did one last fall and I was actually NOT impressed with the evaluators, for whom anything LESS than an aggressive result with the crazy stranger was a failure, regardless of breed.
How does this differ from a TDI ??
I'm actually quite curious how he will do with the crazy stranger. He is pretty much friendly to most anyone but there have been a few incidents where a person has behaved in a way that he thought was "off" and he barked at them. I wonder if he would be counted down if he reacted by barking?
I want to try this with all my guys. Too bad none of those are close..
For the average dog owner, what is the purpose of this? I can see that if you wanted to breed your dog, it'd be helpful to say that he had the ideal temperament of his breed...but for the rest of us? What's the point?
