VETERINARIAN ON CALL: Quail Corners Animal Hospital and Emergency Care Center 1613 E. Millbrook Road, Raleigh, NC MEASURING and HEIGHT CARD INFORMATION Effective January 1, 2010, exhibitors are no longer required to provide proof to Trial Secretaries that their dog has a valid jump height card as part of the check-in process. Furthermore, this change eliminates the need for a copy of the jump height card to be submitted with an entry form. Dogs without a valid Jump Height Card/Form may still compete; but they must be measured/wicketed by the Judge of Record PRIOR to running in their class and this measurement will be valid for that weekend of trials only. The exception to this requirement is a dog entered in the 24 or 26 height division. However, if a Volunteer Measuring Official (VMO) or an Agility Field Rep is present; ALL dogs without a valid Jump Height Card/Form must be measured at some time during the trial or cluster of trials. This does not preclude having the dog wicketed by the Judge of Record if the VMO or Rep is not available to measure the dog before its first run of the trial or cluster of trials. It is the exhibitor s responsibility to have their dog measured prior to running and failure to do so will result in the cancellation of any qualifying scores. Height Card Process: Copies of height cards no longer need to be sent with your entry. Please check the appropriate box on the entry form regarding your dog s measurement status so the trial secretary knows whether to include you on the Dogs to Be Measured List. Regular Preferred Information 8 4 For dogs 11 & under at withers 12 8 For dogs 14 & under at withers For dogs 18 & under at withers For dogs 22 & under at withers For dogs over 22 at withers 24 C --- Dogs may be entered at this height at their owner s discretion
