288. Ugly Dog Talk

Mike Neiduski of Ugly Dog Hunting joins me for a discussion that spans a number of relevant dog topics which most of them simply come back to the question of "Why are we testing?" WATCH HERE! Impressions of the upland community through so many unique lenses Becoming a judge to become a better handler? Learning by seeing so many different dogs and handlers IF using a command then actually use it! Test jitters and nervousness Why are we testing? Where does ego fall into testing and preparation? "I'll fix that later" Are people losing the "purpose" of how we test? Some dogs find birds. Some dogs happen upon birds. Field search vs duck search criteria to earn a prize 1 in Utility Judging AND training by committee Tracking is the biggest wild card in NAVHDA The judges only get a limited window to view each dog Dream booking the duck search event Don't be afraid of new ideas!
