After watching Cruft's, I have been inspired to host a show for those of you with Working Dogz in their kennels.
This competition allows the judge to see how obedient, athletic and even-natured your dog is.
Your dog is required to be a Trotter to enter; if he/she isn't, there's a great tutorial here for making petz into trotters.
Once that's out the way, you can begin training and photographing your dog.
Pic 1 - Posing
The quality of the pose does not really matter, but it should highlight his fine features and show the shape of his chest and body. Make sure the head is facing the front [dali pose] and that the dog isn't overposing.
Pic 2 - Trotting
This photo aims to highlight the dog's movement [gait] and show the strength and quality of the legs. A loping, stretched gait indicates a good working dog.
Pic 3 - Picking up a strange object
The dog should not be afraid of picking up strange or 'alien' objects, especially those with frightening or odd effects. Permitted toyz include the firework ball (above), the pumpkin lamp, the parrot plushie and the watering can. This shows the dogz' brave nature and shows how strong his mouth is.
Pic 4 + 5 - Herding
You must take two pictures of your dog herding another pet. The herded animal can be anything sensible, for example a horse, sheep, cow, cat etc. Other dogz cannot be 'herded' animals, unless they have been hexed to look like another animal, i.e. one of manda's horses.
These photos highlight the dogz' ability to work hard, tolerate other creatures, and follow their owner's commands.
P R I Z E
The lucky winner of this class will be allowed to pick any customised dog hex they fancy from Warlock. I will then personally train that dog for them with my own training methods so that they may become a decent working dog.
