| Description: | "Obedience!" Dog training at by "the well-known breeder" Mr. Lee, at Chalfont, St. Giles. LS 3 German shepherds (or Alsatians as the Brits like to call them) walk on leashes with man and 2 women toward camera. (One of the dogs - -who turns out to be the star of the show- - is very dark colored and has longer hair; I would have thought it a mixed breed but our resident dog expert says it is probably a long-haired German Shepherd - -via a genetic quirk- -or else a Belgian Shepherd....?. ) MS pan side view of the 3 human/canine pairs walk briskly to left, stop suddenly (dogs sit), then walk on, turn rt. and walk away. MLS people and dogs make U-turns, walk then stop again. LS Mr. Lee walks with the long-haired Shepherd beside him, but now without the leash. LS/MS/LS Mr. L. & dog make more stops and turns. CU Lee blowing whistle. Shot w/ Lee in FG, dog starts to run to him from a distance; he signals to dog (with hand and presumably also with whistle) and dog lies down. He pats his leg, dog starts to approach again. CU Lee w/ whistle. LS same as previous; they repeat the starts and stops several times until dog finally reaches him. MS back view Lee reaches down and pets dog. 01.07.08. 5 dogs (Dalmatian, Collie, Shepherds, Border Collie) lie still while a boy rides a bicycle zig-zagging in and out between the dogs. MLS dog sits beside Lee; woman stands watching as Lee gives signal and dog takes off running; pan w/ dog as it runs and leaps over the backs of 4 people, then turns and jumps back the other way. Shot w/ camera at ground level: dog approaches at a run, leaps over bars forming "long jump". Side view panning on dog doing this jump. MLS pan on dog as it jumps up scaling high wooden wall and jumping over it. Lee, standing beside the jump, pats on top of the wall and the dog appears at the top and jumps on over, runs toward camera. CU dog panting and looking around; Lee petting dog's head. | |
