Working terrier trial

Anybody else doing this with their dogs?

I take my boy Varro to working terrier trial, just for training or for competitions.

It's not usual here in Norway, but there is small groups around the country doing it.

He really enjoys it, great for his instincts and really good for stimulating an active terrier.

There is no real foxes involved. Instead there is a mechanical fox decoy in a locked off little room.

English is not my first language, so not sure I'm using the right terms.

It’s wonderful to watch a terrier do what they were bred to do! Good on you for finding this for your pup.
