Heights/Height Cards Information MEASURING and HEIGHT CARD INFORMATION All exhibitors should obtain a copy of the Regulations for Agility Trials by contacting the American Kennel Club by at info@akc.org, or on their website at 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 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. Preferred Class Any dog (at least 15 months old see Eligibility requirements above) may enter Preferred Classes. A dog entered in Preferred will jump 4 lower than it s regular jump height and have 5 seconds in time added to the regular Standard Course Time. Dogs in the Preferred Class must jump their Preferred jump height.. Dogs are allowed to switch back and forth between the Preferred classes and the Regular classes, but not at the same set of trials. This change may not be made after the close of entry for a trial.
