More Gundog Info
I was part of the 'Retrievers and Water Spaniels' class. I had to be steady by my handler whilst being shot over until commanded to search for dead or wounded game from land or water and retriever gently to hand.
As always we dogs are unpredictable! The faults for this class are:

Major
Failing to find dead or wounded game
Unsteadiness to heel
Eye wipe
Disturbing ground
Slack work
Noisy handling
whilst retrieving

Elimination
Hard mouth
Whining or barking
Running in or chasing
Out of control
Failing to enter water
Changing game whilst retrieving
Poor control
