Ring Dismissal

Dogs that are not "fit" for the ring in accounts over one month old will be removed from the ring before judging.

The following sessioning levels are considered grounds for dismissal:

Obedience, Muscle Tone and Coat Condition all under 10

Obedience at or less than 5

Muscle Tone less than 5

Coat Condition less than 5

Dogs removed from the ring won't contribute to championship points or dogs defeated.

Entry fees will still be charged for dogs dismissed from the ring.

Did you know?
The two largest American dog shows after Westminster are the National Dog Show (which is televised on Thanksgiving Day by NBC, usually after the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade) and the AKC/Eukanuba National Championship.
