Another dog show

Recently we visited another type of dog show.

In opposite to previous one it was not about dogs exterior but about their work.

There were a lot of participants, because it was not only for police and army dogs.

There were courts for other dogs sports like pitch-and-go, dancing and others.

Thus dogs of all sizes and their owners had a chance to show their skills.

The show was started by army dogs, who show us how they fast they can find a blast (mine) hidden in the car, poison in the luggage, and other they skills.

After that it was the time for civilian dogs.

It was a good event to see, but almost nothing to write about ;)

I like the court with pitch&go.
The rules are simple:

 - The place is divided onto different zones.
 - Each zone has own amount of scores.

 - Owner and his dog has 90 seconds to collect max amount of scores.

The scores counts, if owner throw the ball in some zone and dog bring the ball back.

So, there is some strategy too, depend of time, and your dog speed you can decide what to do, several short throws for small scores, or made a few long ones.

For children there was a contest for best drawing on any related topic, and my boy made the painting.
I am sure you can easily find it on this photo:

During this show as on any Russian event there was a special truck:

It's an army kitchen truck, this stove attached to it produce food.

Traditionally we have it on every mass holiday.

I don't know why we need that, it's not a problem to visit a cafe, but looks like it's a tradition.

It's a free food for everyone. It's not what you can get in the restaurant, just simple army's food, but many people like it.

Usually this truck serves  hundred people at least, but during massive holidays it would be several food trucks in the row.

We like it too, and we always taste it when we can.

This time I forgot to take a photo of that food, but I'll do next time.
