A Young Dog Keeps Hold as the Decoy Moves
A fawn young dog trailing a long line leaps onto a decoy in a grey bite suit and keeps hold of him while he turns and walks, a stick held down across its back.
The first hit is over in a second. What this clip is better for is the fourteen seconds after it, when the decoy keeps moving and the dog is still on him.
Count what changes around the dog. The decoy walks toward the camera with one arm thrown wide, the dog hits him at 0:04, and at 0:07 all four of its feet are off the ground. He then turns and walks for about ten seconds with the dog still on him and a stick held down across its back. The owners’ file name calls this a young dog; nothing in the footage settles its age. We never see the start of the send, a handler, or the dog letting go, and those three are worth asking a seller to show you.

Video Is Not Evidence
Every company in this business posts footage, ours included, and footage is the one thing a seller has complete control over. Watch it, then ask to see something you did not see on camera — here is how to ask.
