It all depends on what the objective of the tests were. I don't see how the tests were relative to agility, and marginal at best to have any significance in search and rescue. On the other hand, if this were a dog for PP or protection sports of any kind, I'd have my strong reservations..
For me this was excellent. I see a lot of dutch and malinois owners who can not receive guests in there houses because of the dogs. Great work. Keep it on.
That dog was very nervy, turned its back to an agressor and backed away from him as well. Not a very good dog for pro sport from what i see here. could possibly make a good p.p. dog but nothing that i would trust to guard me or anyone in my family. Not much fight in the dog.
She was not very nervous at all. All points were about average. What do you mean with pro sports? She is not a Guard dog. She is pretty good in agility (has won one competition). She is also a qualified Search and Rescue dog. And she also has first price in obedience (ALO1). She has many excellent offspring in many different dog sports.
ever have a dog attack the target? Would that be good or bad?

Did you breed on this dog? A dutch shepherd should be a working dog.
But this is a show-dog from show lines then?

There are no show lines in this breed, at least in Finland.

I would not want her as a protection dog though.

So what was the verdict on this dog. I watched the dog's reactions to the tests and am curious how well it scored.
