And
Tracking is?
The purpose of a
tracking test is to demonstrate the dog's ability to recognize and
follow human scent, a skill that is useful in the service of
mankind.
Tracking, by nature, is a vigorous, noncompetitive outdoor sport.
Tracking tests demonstrate the willingness and enjoyment of the dog
in its work, and should always represent the best in sportsmanship
and camaraderie by the people involved.
