1) Yes, A dog can knock a bar and earn a Q5 during a bonus attempt, knocking a bar will negate the sequence it is within.
2) A bar that is taken twice and is knocked down, will negate the first sequence when it was faulted. When the dog comes through the jump again during a later sequence it will not effect the success-fullness of the second sequence.
Kyle, to answer your observations. A bobble is described with many examples right after the bobble sentence. I will add bullet points to the sentences to emphasize the descriptions of the bobbles in the handbook. Also the path work sentence has already been addressed. It will be corrected when the updated version is released soon.
A ‘bobble’, as defined below, which in the past took 5 points off your score, will now count as failing that section.
• The dog shall not stop, spin or turn in a direction that is not in the flow of the correct direction of the course, doing so will count as failing that section.
• The dog cannot be out of flow in going towards correct obstacles, nor can directional turns be excessively wide, doing so will count as failing that section.
• The handler should never have to redirect or resend their dog while performing the course, doing so will count as failing that section.
• Stopping above the contact will count as failing that section.
