Description
Schutzhund was originally used for judging whether or not a dog would be good for fieldwork and worth being bred. Schutzhund tests three different areas of a dog’s ability and behavior.
The first test is tracking, which requires a dog to follow a trail of footsteps over different terrains, while showing accuracy and commitment while following the scent. The next trial is obedience, which is similar to normal obedience. However, unlike competition Obedience, the dog is tested in the field, occasionally under the sound of a firing gun. Protection, the final test, is often the most misunderstood trial. Although it is not the same sport, it has often been confused with police dog training. In the protection test, the dog has been trained to never be aggressive or bite unless its owner is being attacked and to watch the attacker by the command of the handler with unwavering loyalty and focus. All of these trials are very demanding on the dog and the handler.
