Alert |
| |
| An alert is a visual cue as perceived by the
handler that her dog has detected the scent of
its target. The dog's body language is the
"alert". Some dogs have very subtle alerts
requiring the handler to be in-tune to her every
mannerism and each degree of her movement, while
others telegraph their alerts so greatly that
even a novice would be able to tell that the dog
has located a scent. The term "alert" is
often used interchangeably with the term
"indication", such as in the term "passive
alert" or "bark alert". |
