Prefer the diamond test pattern if you have it (FEMA standards). Please PM me if you prefer. Thanks Sandy

Konnie Hein Webboard User Reg: 03-24-2006 Posts: 413 Loc: Connecticut Offline	Sandra: Here's a video I found on youtube. This is what it generally should look like (without the command to sit at the end before the dog returns to the handler). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSJP3n5Y1mE I am VERY particular about the method in which the dogs on my state USAR team are trained for this. It is an exercise that should be trained and performed in drive. The method I use is quick and it produces a dog that performs the pattern in drive and is easily transferrable to directing a dog while searching (which is the point, after all). If you want information on the method I use, just PM me and I'll write it up for you. http://www.laforgemalinois.com

Wow, I didn't know training for FEMA-style directionals would be so popular! I'll take some time today to write up my method and send it to y'all as soon as I can. http://www.laforgemalinois.com
