Flyball races match two teams of four dogs each, racing side-by-side over a fifty one foot long course. Each dog must run in relay fashion down the jumps, trigger a flyball box, releasing the ball, retrieve the ball, and return over the jumps. The next dog is released to run the course but can’t cross the start/finish line until the previous dog has returned over all four jumps and reached the start/finish line. The first team to have all four dogs finish the course without error wins the heat.  2, record 3, English, - flyball

Le principe du flyball est simple : le chien effectue seul un parcours rectiligne composé d’une série de quatre haies au bout duquel est positionné une boîte (le lanceur) comportant une pédale sur laquelle il doit appuyer, déclenchant ainsi l’éjection d’une balle qu’il rattrape au vol et rapporte à son maître en sautant les mêmes quatre haies en sens inverse.  2, record 3, French, - flyball

Pit sawing operations have a long and vibrant history. Well before circular saws were used to saw logs lengthwise, they were processed by placing them over a "pit"-hence the reference to "pit saw. "The saw operates vertically up and down. Operated by two men, a man on top, known as the "Top Dog", guided the saw as it was pulled down in a cutting motion by the "Underdog. "The "Top dog" recovered the saw and the "Underdog" then pulled it down in a cutting motion again. Needless to say the "Underdog" copped a fair bit of sawdust. The top of the saw has a fixed "tiller handle" so the topdog can guide it and cut a straight line. The lower part of the saw has a "block" which is easily detachable with a wedge. The block can be taken off to allow the saw to be threaded through the saw cut.  1, record 4, English, - tiller%20handle

Le chevrier grimpait à pieds déchaux sur le tronc. Contre le froid, contre les échardes et pour conserver le plus d'adhérence, il avait enfilé des chaussettes à la semelle renforcée d'une toile de chanvre. Au sol, le renard lui faisait face, jambes écartées. Il était couvert d'un chapeau à larges bords ou tout simplement d'un vieux sac de toile, pour éviter de recevoir trop de sciure dans les yeux. La grande scie de long était formée d'un cadre en bois d'environ 1,50 m de long sur 1 m de large, munie d'une poignée aux deux transversales, et d'une lame fixée en son milieu, raidie par un tendeur ou des coins. Les dents de la lame étaient crochues, elles ne mordaient le bois qu'en descendant. C'était donc le renard qui sciait; le chevrier remontait la scie, en l'écartant légèrement de l'entaille et la guidait en fixant son regard sur le trait de scie. Il progressait en reculant.

Rescue transceivers are an efficient method to locate victims, but two problems have limited the number of survivors who were wearing transceivers. First, few who wear transceivers are well practiced in using them instantly and efficiently to save a life; and second, even with a quick pinpointing of the burial location, extricating the victim from deeper burials may take too long to save a life.  2, record 8, English, - burial%20location

An avalanche dog is trained to track a wide area of snow-covered space in a rapid zig-zag pattern, searching for pools of human scent that rise up above the snow. Once he or she has located the scent of humans, she sounds the alarm, typically a high-pitched, excited bark, and digs down to the victim, letting the ever-needed air in for the victim to breathe, until her handler gets to the burial location to assist with first aid.  3, record 8, English, - burial%20location

A hot dog is classified as a type of sausage or, alternatively, a sandwich on a suitably shaped bun with the sausage and condiments on it. Also called a frankfurter (named after the city of Frankfurt am Main, Germany) or a frank, a wiener (named after the city of Wien, Austria known as Vienna in English), or (with tongue in cheek) a tube steak. Hot dogs are eaten with a wide variety of condiments, most common of which are mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard, sauerkraut, pickle relish, chopped onion, chopped lettuce, tomato (chopped, sliced, or in wedges), pickle spear, and chilli pepper.

La Yukon Quest a lieu chaque année, en février, entre Whitehorse, au Yukon, et Fairbanks, en Alaska, en passant par la vallée de la rivière Yukon. Les départs de cette épreuve sont donnés alternativement de Whitehorse et de Fairbanks. La Yukon Quest se distingue des autres courses en ce qu'elle met l'accent sur l'endurance. Elle reproduit le trajet que parcouraient à l'époque les équipages chargés du transport des marchandises, et l'élément vitesse n'est pas le seul à être pris en compte. Il faut franchir deux grandes chaînes de montagnes. Les températures varient entre moins 50 degrés et plus 10 degrés. Les conditions météorologiques sont toujours imprévisibles, et les concurrents doivent s'attendre à affronter la neige, le vent, des surfaces rocheuses, la crue de la rivière et des chinooks soudains. Chaque équipage doit transporter l'intégralité de ses provisions et de son matériel et n'est autorisé qu'à deux arrêts où les conducteurs d'attelage peuvent disposer de l'aide des maîtres-chiens pour nourrir et soigner les bêtes. Il arrive souvent à ces équipages de courir de 24 à 48 heures sans s'octroyer le moindre repos.

What is "cone of scent"? Odour particles always travel in the shape of a cone. A cone of scent is always concentrated and narrow at the source, and becomes wider and more diluted the further it travels. When a detector dog detects a substance that it has been trained to interdict, it uses the cone of scent to pinpoint the source of the odour. It starts by moving from one side to the other and back again in order to define the search area. Then, by moving up and down the cone, the dog can determine in which direction the odour becomes stronger. The dog can then follow the ever-narrowing cone of scent to its source.  1, record 11, English, - cone%20of%20scent

Qu'est-ce que le «cône de détection olfactive»? Les particules d'odeur se déplacent toujours sous forme de cône. Un cône de détection olfactive est toujours concentré et étroit à la source et il devient plus vaste et plus dilué lorsqu'il se déplace. Lorsqu'un chien détecte une substance qu'il a été dressé à repérer, il utilise le cône de détection olfactive pour trouver la source de l'odeur. Il commence à se déplacer d'un côté à l'autre et il revient afin de définir le secteur de recherche. Ensuite, en se déplaçant de haut en bas du cône, le chien est en mesure de déterminer dans quelle direction l'odeur devient plus prononcée. Il peut alors suivre le cône d'odeur jusqu'à sa source.  1, record 11, French, - c%C3%B4ne%20de%20d%C3%A9tection%20olfactive
