blind search

[brooksybrooks1]

tre did his first blind search last night, i wish i would have recorded it! just one blind, the first time he (in true pitbull style) saw it as no obstacle and just ran straight through it and knocked it down a couple times, then we started sending him when the decoy was outside of it and as tre ran in he'd slowly back into it in the direction we want tre to run around it, and then after that tre ran it beautifully and did the best bark and holds of his life! i think it gives him an extra couple of seconds to think before he acts, he usually runs up to the decoy and chest buts them for the first bark and then sits into a calm bark and hold, but with the blind he just runs into it and sits perfectly. i never minded the chest but thing, it's just him being tough, but i nkow i would get pointed for in in sch so i'm glad that he doesn't do it when he's searching blinds, because that's the only type of b&h he'll ever have to do in trial.
very excited!

That's great! Do you have any video of him plowing through the blinds?

no, but now that you said that i'm kinda sad that he stopped doing it because i will probably not be able to recapture the moment! something tells me a judge wouldn't take too kindly to some goofy looking pit bull running down the field and systematically tearing down each blind while they look for the decoy- although it would be pretty funny! i'll try to record it all next time, he's bound to try it a couple more times before he learns not to do it!
