Right. In the post the Norman had quoted, I had been referring to schutzhund tracking (and stated as much). Actually, the rules now read that the indication...
My dog "blew" a TD test because he didn't stop to indicate the article. I didn't see the glove because it was dark brown and partially covered in deep leaves....
