four retrieves in three sections

out at the end of the Obedience section. The
handler is given a dummy and walks the dog at heel
from the starting post to the 30-yard marker. The
handler drops the dummy at the 30-yard marker and
returns to the starting post. Without undue delay,
the assessor will instruct the handler to send the
dog for the retrieve.

assessor on a hand signal from the handler. The
handler is situated three to five yards from the
dog. The dog is positioned with his back to a fence,
hedge or similar barrier.
The dog must remain steady at the handler’s side whilst each dummy is
thrown. The handler must not move around during the
