That's how CSVs help their owners stay in good physical condition.

Wow

By the way: What is the criteria for the new svp3 test compared to the old one?

The old one was not a test but a race. There were less stringent conditions for the shape of the track (so for couple of years the race was run on a 10-km long circle - quite annoing for the wolfdogs - they could not understand why they should run so many times the same track).

In the new test criteria the start and the end must be the same point or that have change too?

The same. But it makes sense because wolfodogs know/feel that they go somewhere and then must return "home". With several rounds they lacked motivation.... CSVs are rational animals (unlike some humans )
