In this video it shows video shows the main changes to the new igp 1,2 & 3 tracking. Formally IPO schutzhund FCI rules for 2019 hope this helps you. Enjoy.
General changes at this time from IPO to IGP in tracking
dog may be lead up to 2 meters of the scent pad on a short leash, any harness is ok as long as it is not past the rib cage or has a connection near the genitals.
All 1-2-3 level tracks have three articles each worth seven points. In the 1 & 2 an article is placed on the first and second leg at the judges’ decision but may not be within twenty paces of a corner. In the past the first article had to be atleast one hundred paces from start THIS has CHANGED, the first article for the 1-2 track must be on the first leg no closer than twenty paces from the corner or the scent pad (start). So it may be placed somewhere near the middle of the first leg. On the IGP 3 track the article location remains the same, first article must be at least one hundred paces from start ideally on the first leg but can be on the second (2nd leg if required due to shape of track).All articles placed at judge’s decision.
Tracking evaluation starts at the scent flag, dog may not have any strong compulsion leading to track, must maintain 2 meters from scent pad to prepare for track, may sit or stand.
Must always start all exercises with a command.
Occasional praise is now (again) allowed in IGP 1 -2 level tracks, if the praise is used to help the dog out of a problem is still “help” and is considered faulty.
More than mild influence from the handler on the dog and the leg / corner can only be rated at highest a satisfactory (B). Examples are a tight lead helping the dog stay on track, excessive commands or praise.
Article indication, for IGP, the dog may indicate the article by down, sit or stand and/or any combination of those methods without deduction on the same track (may down the
first article, stand the second and sit on the last article or any combination of indication). What is important is the speed, confidence, intensity and correctness of the indication.
Corners are now “closed” corners and no longer should have the wider arc (5 step corners). A corner is considered to be the point where the legs of the track connect.
Minimal checking on the corners is allowed as long as the dog does not leave the track (at least 1 foot is on the track).
The dog should not show signs of stress in its work (just as in the past) it is more important now that stress vs intensity in the dogs work is being evaluated.
If a dog misses a single article and the tracklayer cannot find it the dog receives the points for the article, if a dog does not indicate more than one article and the tracklayer cannot find the article then a re-track should be offered and if refused by the handler than all
points for the article(s) are deducted.
All IGP levels may use 3 commands to start (first command and two additional). Only in FH can the handler 1 time recall the dog before he steps onto the track to do a restart.
The final sit after the last article should be evaluated in the performance of the last leg.
The evaluation of the track begins at the scent pad and ends at the final sit after last article.
Handler may swing out from the track to keep line clear after the dog has committed to the corner.
Tracking is terminated if the dog refuses to track, stops and does not start after 3 commands to track at any specific point or if there are many commands to keep the dog working.
A dog may pass the track if it has earned enough points before it loses the track (leaves the track), but it may not pass if it stops working on the track even if it has gotten to a point of enough points.
The dog is disqualified (DQ) in tracking if the dog eats an article or refuses to release the article to handler.
The FH-1 and FH- 2 track are basically the same as previous FH track however the cross track is made 30 mins after the track is layed instead of 30 mins before it is worked.
