Intermediate Course Outline Attention: When the command is given, the dog looks up at the handlers face. The dog remains focused on the face of the handler at heel (while walking), the sit, the down, and the stays. In competition, this results in a overall higher score. The dog is able to "read" turns in advance, without anticipating the turn. In everyday situations, the command is used to lead your dog around distractions, such as children, other animals, and loud noises. (on and off leash) Finish: When your dog returns from the re-call, he will be sitting directly in front of you. You give the command to finish, and the dog returns to the heel position (sitting at your left side), by walking around you. (on and off leash ) Schutzhund Flip: When your dog returns from the recall, he will be sitting directly in front of you. You give the command to Flip, and the dog returns to the heel position (sitting at your left side), by hopping in one movement. ( on and off leash ) Off Leash: We will be working towards, total off leash control. The dog will heel, come, drop on recall, and obey all commands given, without the aid of the leash. The figure eight: The dog team will be able to make figure eights, on and off leash, around other dog teams, dogs alone, people, cones, food, etc.. ( on and off leash ) Drop on recall: While your dog is running towards you, you give the command, and your dog immediately drops to the down stay position, until he receives another command ( on and off leash ). Stand in motion: While you keep walking, you give the command. Your dog stops and remains standing, as you continue to walk. Your dog will be able to be examined (touched), by a stranger, while remaining in the stand stay until released. (on and off leash) Stand for exam: The stand for exam is done out of the moving stand in motion, or the stand command. Your dog will start with the novice stand, and progress to the utility stand for exam. Also at this time we will prepare your dog for the AKC CGC grooming and exam. Sit in motion: While you keep walking, you give the command. Your dog stops, and sits, as you continue to walk. until released. (on and off leash) Down in motion: While you keep walking, you give the command. Your dog stops and downs. as you continue to walk. until released. (on and off leash) Handler Instructions: We will clean up sloppy commands (Tone of voice, hand signals). The use of correct body posture, make sure that you don't cause your dog to lose any points in competition. Hand signals:We will teach you the proper hand signals, as used in competition. You will be able to control your dog without the use of voice. Platinum: Pay Once Lifetime Intermediate Obedience with The American Kennel Club Canine Good Citizen Group training program.
