Hovawart Ring Training

On Saturday, 21.2. our Hovawart Club organised a so called "Ring Training" for the Hovawart breed. It was held in Ljubljana.
Of course Shadow, Gregor and I attended it too. It was wonderful, we learned a lot about dog shows, both cac and cacib, also about the hovi breed.
The most important is that the dog runs evenly in trot - no matter if the owner runs or walks, the dog must remain trotting.
The dog must let the judge inspect him, check the teeth,etc. That is quite hard for the hovi breed to allow, since they are guard dogs.
