Pretty precise heeling but not as anal as AKC. They will take points off every time the dog gets out of position.
IPO will comment at the evaluation that the dog was forging a bit, lagging a bit, crowding, etc but you'll still get a passing grade IF the dog stays under control.
You can see lots of both on Youtube.

In Protection, you're not looking for the same heeling as in OB. The rules describe controllability, heeling close in while being attentive to the helper.
As a general idea Brent, when you report in you need decent attention to you and when you heel to the middle of the field for the blind search too. When you heel away from the helper in the blind after the hold & bark, from the front guarding to the side transport, and up the field for the courage test, you want enough attention on you that he's not turning and looking at the helper and leaving the heel position.
Practice putting your leash back on after you check out at the end. You'll be surprised how easy it can be to lose him there at the very end.

Hey Brent, here's a real good 1 routine with a nice Rott. He does a call out instead of picking his dog up out of the blind and I typed the side transport out of order on a 1, but this will give you the idea:

A big DITTO!
The two points I lost when my dog nipped at the helper during the final check out kept me from a V rating in the protection phase.
That was for my SchI. I never made that mistake again. LOL!
