Millbrook Road, Raleigh, NC 27609 919-876-0739 Change of Excellent B To Master To help resolve the confusion that has been occurred over the years with Excellent A and Excellent B classes, which are two distinctly different classes, we are renaming them to match the names of the titles that are earned from those two, different classes. The requirements to qualify are different in each of these classes as is the title earned when they complete the title requirements. In an effort to eliminate this confusion, as of January 1, 2013 the name of the Excellent A class will change to "Excellent" and the name of the Excellent B class will change to "Master". Please note, only the name is changing. The class themselves and the titles earned remain the same. The new entry form reflects the change. The changes will be as follows: Excellent A will change to Excellent Excellent A Preferred will change to Excellent Preferred Excellent B will change to Master Excellent B Preferred will change to Master Preferred 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.
