Clean Run - October 2014 - 65
The Judge's
Debriefing
By Karen de Wit
Figure 1 shows a NZKC Senior 3
Standard course run in North Taranaki, New Zealand by 51 dogs. The class
was "unsplit," which means all heights
compete against each other. There were
10 Small dogs (under 430mm), 19 Midi
dogs (431-520mm), and 22 Maxi dogs.
NZKC stands for New Zealand Kennel
Club. This is the national organization
that covers conformation, obedience,
rally, and agility. Clubs and individuals
join the NZKC, and dogs have to be registered with the organization to be able
to run in Championship events. This
was a Championship event which means
"challenge certificates" can be awarded
in Senior. There are about 40 agility
clubs around NZ that run agility training classes, ribbon events, and Championship events. Ribbon events are entrylevel events where neither you nor your
dog have to belong to the NZKC. Senior
is the highest level of agility and the "3"
means it was the third senior class run.
The other standard classes are: Elementary, Starters, Novice, and Intermediate.
The winner was a Herding Dog/Border Collie called Quick run by Peter de
Wit in 44.03 seconds. Close behind was
Working Dog Volt run by Kathryn Martin. There were six clear rounds in total,
with the others going to a Border Collie, Toy Poodle, German Shepherd, and
Kelpie/Heading Dog.
I like to see the dogs and handlers running on my courses. The course should
allow handlers to show their handling
ability. The course should flow and the
dog will need to have independent obstacle performances to do well. I usuOctober 14 | Clean Run
ally have very short lead-outs in my
courses, and for this one I also chose
to use a diļ¬cult entry into the weaves.
A number of dogs made their first mistake here, missing the weave entry, and
some were disqualified because the dog
went back over #1 after missing the entry. The most successful maneuver was
taking a short lead-out and sending the
dog to the weaves without pulling away
too early. There was a temptation to leave
the weaves early to get ready to manage
the pull-through that followed at #3-#4.
Those handlers who could leave their dog
in the weaves were best positioned for
the pull-through. Some dogs ran wide at
#3 and took #4 from the wrong direction.
