The dog will be sent and has to bring the dummy back to the handler who is waiting within a designated area. The dog should then be sent for the second dummy, which will have been thrown into the same area.

If you’re new to this and you’d just like to ‘have a go’, the retrieve can be done as a ‘single’ retrieve – don’t be shy, please ask at the ring, we’ll be only too happy to help.
