The owner goes with the dog in a long leash around among the audience, as during the entire test, function as a gathered group/flock, who's walking in front of the dog's owner and the testmanager, between the moments. When all has passed, so the dog has had a chance to snoop and count all, the owner goes out and stand close to the scriber, which are about 15m. away. It is the person who is the testmanager on that specific dog, that's now in the field. The testmanager will be the same, following the dog around at all moments, until the test is over. If the dog takes physical contact to the testmanager, he'll starts talking to the owner. If the dog does not take contact, the testmanager waits for 15 seconds. This is to give the dog a chance to seek attention on its own. The owner is asked, shortly to tell the group, about the dog and what it is used for. Then the testmanager walk away with the dog and tries to get some kind of contact with it, when it is away from the owner. The testmanager looks after ear tattoos and whether he/she can examine it, without making the dog making any opposition.

 

There will be described, whether the dog independently takes contact, excessively or
                                                 snoop/touch the testmanager, or if it will withdraw and maybe try to bite. There will also be described whether the dog want’s to follow the testmanager, and how it can be handled.
