In a SH or MH test the dog is sent on the go bird and picks it up,instead of returning to the handler the dog goes to the second mark and without dropping the first bird,get them both in his mouth and then returns to the line.
How is this judged and why ?
Years ago in a Master my dog retrieved the "poison bird" while returning from the water blind and the judges were very interested in the order of the 2 birds in his mouth :roll: . I still got a ribbon.
