Everedi Blazin' Inferno - first leg of MH
Hey guys and gals,
Exciting news for me.... My dog Rooster passed his first attempt at MH this Sunday. I elected to skip SH altogether and just realized that he got his JH title about 4 years ago - about the time I left the Conservation Department. So I guess the good news is he passed and the bad news is that I've been way too busy these past 4 years and I need to work the dogs into the mix a bit more!
It was a fun test, the judges were nice and helpful. Though I did get a question from some folks in the audience because Rooster retrieves to hand and then sits while I take the bird. Some folks in the audience thought he shouldn't pass because of this, but the judges thought it was fine. Interesting... I know the debate rages on teaching a birddog to sit, but that's just how we do the retrieves.

Congratulations on the pass. I believe as long as the presentation is fluid, the dog can sit, or even stand.
Never try to teach a pig to sing. It wastes your time and annoys the pig.

rules don't say either way, so do whatever makes YOU happy.
We have done something with nothing for so long we are now qualified to do everything with anything....

I see no problem with the dog sitting while delivering the bird.
