I understand, but the confusion comes in when four others who have actually titled several dogs say other things so then I doubt what the helper in my club says. I get confused because I'm told by so many that I have a very nice schH prospect yet I get told the man with no experience works my dog. That makes no sense to me.

If my dog can do a full BH routine now how is he not ready?

If my dog is running blinds now, how is he not ready?

If my dog is biting HARD as in will bruise you if you are wearing something than an intermediate sleeve, should he still be on a pillow?

If four people with more than 15 years of experience each tell me I should be doing the protection exercises rather than pole work then isn't he ready?

Nobody in the club has actually titled a dog should that be a concern? I know little about schH and tend to want to listen to the guys who have actually been there and done that but I also know the one helper in my club is a guy I have trusted for the time I have known him. BUT he doesn't want the other helper working his dog. Why is that guy ok for my dog but not his? Are these valid concerns or am I being a knucklehead?

We had a nice session this morning with the TD from the Phoenix schH club. And though I have a not so nice cut on my calf from a whip the guy said "Them shorts don't work too good for training but that's good efffing Rottweiler"
