Seminar with Ketschker turn



Lots of examples to think about.

Basically, a Ketschker turn is defined as front cross followed by a blind. It is a stationery turn, so no motion is indicated at the point of the turn.

Here is some video taken at a European seminars of various teams and assorted breeds of dog executing the turn on a course that appears to have been designed to include lots of opportunities for Ketschkers.

What do you think? Is this something we should be teaching more of in the U.S? Are you seeing more opportunities for European style turns showing up in your local trials?

If you have video of yourself or others teaching these turns, I would love to see them. Email me or post the link in the comments section below. Thanks!
