yellowlabsrule Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 This is going to be LONG :o Well, for starters we have 3 different big "clubs". There is USDAA (website: [url]http://www.usdaa.com/[/url] ), NADAC ( [url]http://www.nadac.com/[/url] ), and AKC ( [url]www.akc.org[/url] ). Within each of those are different titles. Here are the titles for USDAA: CHAMPIONSHIP PROGRAM The Championship Program is designed to measure a dog and handler's progress in the sport as measured against international performance standards, resulting in the award of the Agility Dog Champion title. Certification is tested on three levels through four standard agility classes and four nonstandard classes. Classes are offered at the Novice (or Starters), Advanced and Masters levels, with the Masters level the representative of international performance. A dog that has completed the Masters level will have demonstrated successful performance in competition on par with top level competitors from other countries throughout the world. The Champioship Program offers eight separate titles and awards upon fulfillment of the minimum requirements, as follows: Agility Dog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yellowlabsrule Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 Ok, one more :o :o AKC agility is very different from NADAC and USDAA in that they don't allow any dog that isn't AKC registered (purebred) to compete. (I believe.) I can't find their titles, but I believe that they are similar to NADAC and USDAA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellieangel Posted September 1, 2003 Share Posted September 1, 2003 The AKC registration could be like it is here in that you can register x breeds or any unregistered dog for "working and obedience". Without knowing the dogs history even. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
