Sanction Show 06/09/03
The
Great Northern Rottweiler Club held its sanctioning show on June 9, 2003, at
Centennial Park in Anchorage, Alaska. Many thanks to our judge, Tony
Becherer (pictured left with club President Kathy Carmen). Tony came up
from sunny California to judge our sanctioning show as well as offering seminars
on subjects such as the BH, the BST and tracking.

Smith and her dog Lazhand All Let Freedom Ring, BH, HIT, CGC
("Freddie"), getting ready for the Practice BST.
Practice BST with Helper
Darrell Wilson, Stephanie and Freddie. 
In
a handler's class, Tony teaches the preferred
position
of having the dog in a sit when showing the bite. This position provides a
less stressful method of exhibiting the teeth for the dog and handler.
During the practice BST, Freddie exhibits the
sound temperament expected by sitting quietly while a crowd of strangers
approaches his handler.
