| SCHUTZHUND 3 (sCHh3 - schhIIi) |
 |
| Reporting |
- The Handler reports to the
judge with the dog heeling off lead. After reporting, the
Handler proceeds to the start position and once again takes
the basic position.
|
| Search for the
Helper (5 Points) |
- Commands: "Go On"/"Search"
(Voran/Revier), "Here"
(Hier), in conjunction with the
dog's call name is allowed.
- At the judge's command, the
Handler starts his dog on the blind search. The Handler must
show 6 side searches (alternating 3 to the right and 3 to
the left or vice versa.)
|
| Hold and Bark
(10 points) |
- Commands: "Heel"
(Fuß), "Down"
(Platz)
- At the judge's command, the
Handler leaves the center of the field and approaches within
3 to 4 paces from the dog. The judge determines the
Handler's position for the call out. At another command from
the judge, the dog is recalled with the command, "Heel"
(Fuß). The dog must immediately
come and sit quickly next to the Handler. The Handler calls
the Helper out of the blind, downs his dog in place after
ordering "Hands Up." (The recall position can be the same as
the down position for the Escape.) The location of the
Helper and the Handler before the Escape is determined by
the judge. After completion of the search of the Helper and
the blind, the exercise, Hold and Bark, is concluded.
- If the dog does not come to
the Handler after 3 commands, the dog is picked up off
lead. (The Hold exercise is scored as insufficient.)
|
| Escape (10
points) |
- Commands: "Out"
(Aus)
- The Handler is located in
the blind. At the judge's command, the Helper attempts to
escape. By a fast, hard, forceful bite, the dog must
effectively prevent the escape. At the judge's command, the
Helper stands still. The dog must immediately let go on its
own or at the single command "Out"
(Aus) and intently guard the Helper.
- If the dog has not prevented
the escape within 20 meters by biting and holding on,
protection is discontinued.
|
| Defense [Re-attack] (15
points) |
- Commands: "Out"
(Aus)
- After a distinct period of
time, the Helper is instructed by the judge to attack the
dog. Without influence from the Handler, the dog must
immediately, confidently and forcefully defend against the
attack by biting hard and full.
- After the dog bites, the
Helper gives him 2 hits with the padded stick on the
hindquarters, sides or withers. At the judge's command, the
Helper stops resisting and stands still. The dog must
immediately let go on its own or at the single command,
"Out" (Aus) and intently guard
the Helper.
- At the judge's command, the
Handler goes to his dog and puts it in the basic position.

Defense of a
Surprise Attack (20 points) |
- Commands: "Out"
(Aus)
- At the judge's command,
after about a 50 pace Back Transport, an attack on the
Handler and dog occurs while in motion but without verbal
threats. The dog must immediately, confidently and
forcefully defend against the attack by biting hard and
full. At the judge's command, the Helper stops resisting and
stands still. The dog must on its own or at the single
command immediately let go and guard the Helper intently. At
the judge's command, the Handler walks directly to his dog
at a normal pace. With the command, "Sit"
(Sitz), he puts the dog into
the basic position. If the dog is already sitting, his
behavior can be reinforced with the command, "Sit"
(Sitz). If the dog downs after
outing, the down can likewise be reinforced with the "Down"
(Platz) command. The Handler
has the Helper take 3 steps back, orders him to raise his
arms and the downs the dog. The Handler disarms the Helper.
After disarming, the Handler returns to his dog and sits
him. Before beginning the side transport, the Handler halts
beside the Helper with the dog in the basic sit position
between them. The side transport to the judge follows with
the dog heeling off lead.
- After reporting to the
judge, the Handler is instructed to go to the assigned blind
with the dog heeling off lead.

Defending
Against an Attack on the Dog and Handler, the Subsequent
Hold and Guard (20 Points) |
- Commands: "Heel"
(Fuß), "Go On"
(Voran), "Out"
(Aus)
- The Handler comes out of the
blind with the dog heeling off lead and proceeds to the
start position designated by the judge (center of the
field). He puts his dog in the basic sit position free at
heel or holds him firmly by the collar. The Handler may not
stimulate the dog and the dog must sit quietly next to the
Handler. The dog must hold this position until he is
released with the command "Go On"
(Voran)
to defend against the attack.
- Up to 3 points will be
deducted for restless behavior.
- The Helper leaves the blind
assigned to him by the judge that is about 70 to 80 paces
distance from the Handler and runs across the field. The
Handler orders the Helper to halt by calling, "Stop,
stand still!" The Helper ignores this command and attacks
the Handler and dog head on. Immediately after the attack,
the judge gives the Handler the command to defend against
the attack.
- At that time, the Handler
immediately sends his dog with the command, "Go On"
(Voran).
- The dog must intently defend
against the attack and forcefully bite with a hard, full,
confident, calm bite. After the dog bites, the Helper drives
the dog a short distance, without stick hits, and at the
judge's command stops resisting. After that, the dog must
let go on its own or on the single command, "Out"
(Aus), and watch the Helper
intently.
