I don't know much about SchH work in the slightest...but I do know that our male Belgian Sheepdog would be a good candidate for it. He can not stand sitting around watching other dogs work (OB or Agility) and having to wait his turn. Once it is his turn, however, he works beautifully...great attention, speed, accuracy.

His "method" is barking and whining.... Much to my discontent If he's waiting in a crate or xpen, he will scream his head off until it's his turn (we've been working the "quiet" command as AKC sports won't tolerate a dog like him sitting on the sidelines). When it finally IS his turn it's amazing the difference in him. Mouth shuts up, body is still rushing to go, but controlled.

I gotta hand it to those of you who work this type of breed.....most days he has me pulling out my hair with his amount of energy
