General Notices for Exhibitors

The safety of the dogs is our primary concern. By entering this trial, exhibitors

acknowledge that they are familiar with the rules and regulations of the sport, and that

their dogs are familiar with and able to perform all obstacles safely.

Puppies under 4 months are prohibited at AKC Agility Trials.

Entry fees will not be refunded in the event that a dog is absent, disqualified, excused,

becomes ill or injured, or is barred from competition by the action of the Event

Committee. No entry fee will be refunded if the trial cannot open or be completed by

reason of riots, civil disturbances, fire, and act of God, public emergency, act of a public

enemy, or any other cause beyond the control of the organizing committee.

It is expressly understood that exhibitors alone are responsible for the behavior of their

dogs and/or children. Any exhibitor whose dogs and/or children create unnecessary

disturbances or repeatedly engage in unsafe or disruptive behavior may, at the discretion

of the Event Committee, be asked to leave the trial site. In such case, no refund of any

fees paid will be made.

All dogs must be on a leash at all times except when in the ring or when in the

designated agility warm-up area.

Bitches in season are not permitted to compete in Agility Trials. Therefore, total entry

fees less $7 for each day entered will be refunded for bitches coming into season after

the closing date provided written request for refund, accompanied by a veterinarian’s

statement, is received by the Trial Secretary via mail or email by the Tuesday prior to the

trial, or presented in person no less than 30 minutes prior to the start of judging on the

first day in which the dog is entered.

Returned checks do not constitute a valid entry fee. A $30 collection fee will be added

to the amount of each returned check. Subsequent returned checks from the same

exhibitor may result in their being put on a CASH ONLY basis.

Judges are not required to wait for dogs. Exhibitors are responsible for being at the ring

gate when it is their turn to run.

Exhibitors are responsible for cleaning up after their dogs. Please help keep the

trial site and hotels clean.

forms; illegible or incomplete entries cannot be entered into the trial. All entries must be

IMPORTANT CHANGES EFFECTING ENTRIES: Class Changes Effective January 1, 2020:

Entering a Mixture of Regular and Preferred Classes Within the Same Trial Weekend – Multiple Jump Heights Within the Same Trial Day

Effective January 1, 2020, exhibitors may enter a mixture of both Regular and Preferred classes on the same trial day and/or during a trial weekend. For example, the same dog may now be entered in Regular FAST and/or T2B to finish up those titles while also entered in Preferred Master STD/JWW to start working towards their PACH at the lower height. Any mixture of Regular and Preferred classes is allowed.

Please note that if a dog qualifies in Regular Master Standard and Preferred Master JWW (or vice versa) on the same trial day, then NO Double Q shall be earned toward either the MACH or PACH title. The Double Q still requires that Standard Agility and Jumpers With Weaves be either both Regular OR both Preferred on the same trial day.

Additionally, within the same Regular or Preferred classes, a dog may now be entered in multiple jump heights within the same trial day. For example, the same dog may now be entered in 20-inch Master STD/JWW while also entered in 24C-inch Premier STD/JWW on the same trial day.

A separate entry form must be submitted when the same dog is being entered in a mixture of Regular and Preferred and/or different jump heights within the same trial weekend thereby clearly indicating which class(es) and/or jump heights belong together for each trial day of the weekend.

When calculating entry fees, treat multiple entry forms for the same dog as if only one form had been filled out. In other words, the 1st run entry fee is only paid once per day, per dog, even if that dog’s runs have been submitted on multiple entry forms. Fix and Go On (FNG)

As of January 1, 2020, Fix and Go On will be offered on a one-year pilot basis in order to give AKC time to evaluate its impact. FNG allows exhibitors to immediately reattempt an obstacle at any time while on course when the dog’s performance of an obstacle is not to their expectation. This allows the dog to successfully complete the obstacle then finish the course or leave the ring on a positive note. Using FNG will result in a non-qualifying score. Fix and Go On is not pre-entered; rather, it occurs during the course of the run.

Entering For Exhibition Only (FEO) - ACCEPTED AT THIS TRIAL As of January 1, 2020, For Exhibition Only may be offered at the option of the host club. FEO will be offered on a one-year pilot basis in order to give AKC time to evaluate its impact. FEO will allow exhibitors to work with their dogs in a trial environment. FEO is only allowed in the Time 2 Beat and FAST classes. FEO will be of value to new exhibitors or exhibitors that are having difficulty with a specific obstacle and/or ring environment. Competitors must enter in T2B and/or FAST. Participation in FEO is non-qualifying.

• FEO runs are treated as trial entries. The exhibitor must enter the class(es) (T2B and/or FAST) prior to the closing date, pay class entry fee(s) and the Trial Secretary must record the entry in the Trial Catalog as part of the results for that class. FEO does not need to be noted on the entry form; the handler will declare the day of the show.

• Dogs may be entered in any jump height for FEO runs. If entered in an ineligible jump height, the team is committed to FEO for that run and must declare FEO on the start line. Day of show jump height changes are not allowed.

• Dogs may be entered in any level of FAST (Novice, Open, Excellent, Master). If the dog is not eligible for the level entered, the team is committed to FEO for that run and must declare FEO on the start line. Day of show level changes are not allowed.

• The exhibitor must declare FEO in the ring prior to leading out. FEO may be declared earlier (ex. when checking in at the gate board).

• Toys are allowed in the ring o Toys must be non-audible o Toys may not leave the handler’s hand o Toys that roll freely cannot be used

• Food/treats are not allowed in the ring

• FEO should be utilized for the benefit of the dog and not as a punitive correction. Harsh verbal and /or physical corrections shall not be tolerated. Any determination of harshness by the judge shall be immediately whistled and the handler will be dismissed from the ring.

• A judge must monitor the entire run. Judges can stop a run at any time
