The Sporthund protection blind is a full-size, 2.20 m blue IGP blind in truck tarpaulin on a plug-together metal frame, made for Schutzhund / IGP / IPO protection training. K9 Store is the exclusive UK distributor of Sporthund.
Two built-in spy holes let the helper watch the dog without being seen, and the hide splits in two at half height, so one person can move it and set it up quickly.

How trainers use it
In IGP, the blind search and the hold and bark are usually trained in stages. Trainers often start with the dog close to the blind and the helper in plain view, then build distance and the search pattern over time. A stable, full-height blind gives the dog a clear picture of where the helper will be. Clubs usually set several blinds around the field, so the dog learns to check each one in turn. Because this blind splits in two, it is easier to move between field layouts.
