13 Moving Up Subject to the provisions stated in these rules, no dog may be entered in any class for which it is not eligible at the time entries for the trial close. The entry of a dog that is improperly entered in a class for which it is not eligible cannot be altered to another class after entries close except as provided in section Moving Up A dog that is registered in the records of the CKC with an eligible number according to these rules and has fulfilled the requirements for a title in accordance with these rules may be moved to the next level of competition if the schedule permits. The transfer must be on the appropriate move-up form and submitted to the Trial Secretary by the owner or handler at least 15 minutes before the start of the class When move ups are permitted, clubs are exempt from the requirements of Section and The Trial Secretary shall amend the judge s book and the marked catalogue, which is to be sent to the CKC with the requests attached to the appropriate entry forms If it is established by the CKC that a dog moved up to the next level has not completed the requirements for the lower level before moving up, then all qualifying ribbons and/or awards earned by the dog incorrectly entered shall be forfeited and cancelled by the CKC and the owner may be subject to disciplinary action In order for a dog to be eligible to move up, the dog must be individually registered with the CKC, have a Performance Event Number (PEN), or an Event Registration Number (ERN) before entries close. The addition of a CKC number after close of entries does not make the dog eligible and will result in referral to the Discipline Committee Exhibitors incorrectly entered in the A class are permitted to move the dog to the corresponding B or C class up to one hour before the start of the trial. Exhibitors incorrectly entered in the Novice B class are permitted to move the dog to the Novice C class up to one hour before the start of the trial.
