The new TAN (Natural Aptitude Test) imposes a course of 500 meters that the dog must do in less than 10 minutes without difficulty; without lameness and above all without showing excessive shortness of breath or respiratory failure.

As Mel passed his TAN before this new protocol, I wanted to test him in order to check his abilities above all for me because health will always be my priority.

The result is very important for my small breeding because these respiratory problems are most of the time hereditary.

Mel therefore traveled 500 meters (550 meters precisely)  in one go without worry, then we took a short break of a few minutes before heading back the other way to repeat the 550 meters without any difficulties.
