Schutzhund

Schutzhund Send-Out (Voraus)
The handler with his free heeling dog proceeds 10-15 steps straight ahead. While still in motion, the handler raises his hand and gives the dog the verbal command to go out (voraus). The dog must go out at a fast pace in the indicated direction. At the judge's signal, the dog is given the verbal command to down (platz). The dog must lie down immediately upon command and stay.

Schutzhund Blind Search
Before the search begins, the helper hides in the number six blind. The handler releases the dog with the command to search (Revier or Voran) towards the empty blind and eventually the helper. The dog should run directly to the empty blind and around it with one command. The handler may give a signal to the dog by pointing in the direction of the search. The dog must search all six blinds.

Schutzhund Bark and Hold
When the dog reaches the helper, the dog should immediately and continuously bark. The dog should not bother the helper by gripping or bumping. The handler is to remain at the imaginary centerline.
