[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 691324, member: 1963"] I and a few friends at the Shepherd Club outside of Chicago, taught Gryphon agility. He loved it once we arranged things a bit for him, like placing the weave poles farther apart because GSDs just don't have real flexible spines. When I moved up North, He and I joined the local tracking club, where Gryph was the only non-hound/spaniel member of the club. He actually did pretty well against the hunting dogs once he figured out that picking up a canvas tube that smelled like a quail and bringing it to me was a good thing. The funniest was when the dogs were sent out to "retrieve" restrained quail (their wings had been rubber banded to their bodies, poor things), and Gryphon, who couldn't figure out what on earth he was supposed to do with a live bird, reverted to his German style training, and sat down next to his quail and barked his head off. Despite being trained to having a pistol fired over his head, his first exposure to a shotgun caused him to levitate, still in perfect sitting position. They fired the shotguns and then sent the dogs out to retrieve the "kill" [/QUOTE]
