Categories: In the Proficient Category, dogs must jump their measured jump height per the current jump height table. With the exception of Regular Agility, runs in Proficient must be clean, with no course faults or time faults, in order to qualify. In the Regular Agility class the run may receive a 5-point qualifier if the total number of faults (time or course faults) are 5 or fewer. There are five Standard Division-Proficient jump heights: 8, 12, 16, 20, 20+. In the Skilled Category, exhibitors MUST jump their dog one jump height lower than they are required to jump in the Standard Division in the Proficient Category. There are four Standard Division-Skilled jump heights: 4, 8, 12, and 16. For example, a dog who measures to jump 20 or 20+ in the Standard division, Proficient category, must jump 16 in the Standard division, Skilled category and will receive the benefit of the additional time allotted to the 16 dogs. If this same dog is also a Veteran, or is handled by a Veteran/Disabled Handler or Junior Handler, he may enter the Veteran or JH Division and jump another 4 lower. This dog would receive the time allotted to the 16 Vets jumping 12. As of January-2014: Dogs must enter the Veterans Division in all jumping classes after their 9th birthday. After their 12th birthday, dogs must enter the Skilled Category, Veterans Division for jumping classes and Skilled Category for non-jumping classes. With the exception of Regular Agility, runs in Skilled must be clean, with no course faults or time faults, in order to qualify. In the Regular Agility class the run may receive a 5-point qualifier if the total number of faults (time- or course-faults) are 5 or fewer. Non-Jumping Classes Handlers who are 60 years or older, or who have a disability that restricts mobility, may choose to enter the non-jumping classes as a Veteran Handler and receive 10% more standard course time. This option is for Veteran/Disabled handlers in the non-jumping classes only. The Veteran/Disabled Handler division is designed for handlers who, due to age or impairment, are mobility limited and need extra time to guide their canine partners through an agility course. When entering as a Veteran/Disabled Handler, you must enter all dogs in all classes for the entire trial in this Division and must jump 4 lower than your Proficient, Standard Division jump height requires. In the non-jumping classes, dogs will be scored and placed with their Standard Division jump height. ARE YOU WILLING TO HELP??? If so, please return this form with your entry.
