In sweden it isn't the national kennel council that makes rules for tracking trials (and the like), they only have obedience trials.

Tracking and trailing

[edit]

Search and rescue dog trainers make a distinction between tracking and trailing; is that the case also in tracking trials? --Una Smith (talk) 05:01, 1 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merging?

[edit]

This article lacks inline citation and in my opinion could be easily trasformed into a section in Tracking article? There was a suggestion for merging in 2011 but it never took place? Should I try? @Cavalryman (talk · contribs)? @William Harris (talk · contribs)? --LoraxJr 17:47, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello LoraxJr, this article is only 3.5k in size, whereas Tracking (hunting) is 20k in size and is equally missing inline citations. I think that a merge would be a good idea. William Harris (talk) 21:23, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I am not sure this is a good idea, the Tracking (hunting) article is about humans interpreting animal spoor, something that predominantly non-western indigenous hunters do across the world, whilst this article is about a dog sport pretty much confined to the western world.

I meant the article Tracking(dog) --LoraxJr 14:48, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Both of them are pretty small and lack sources and generally need improvement and cleaning. I just thought merging would be a good start for that... @Cavalryman (talk · contribs)? @William Harris (talk · contribs) LoraxJr 18:22, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I can see no reason why Tracking trial could not be merged into Tracking dog. William Harris (talk) 02:30, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Great! I thought the same. Will do it now, thanks! --LoraxJr 22:39, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
