RULES PERTAINING TO NON-REGULAR CLASSES OBEDIENCE WILD CARD NOVICE: The Wild Card Novice class is for any dog that is capable of performing the Novice exercises and that is eligible under the Obedience Regulations to compete in AKC events. No title is required to enter, and handlers may enter more than one dog. Dogs in this class may be handled by the owner or any other person, and may be entered in another class or classes. The Novice exercises will be performed and judged as in the regular Novice class, except that verbal praise during the exercises is to be encouraged and not penalized! Each handler may choose to select one exercise as a wild card. The exhibitor will have the option of performing the selected wild card exercise, but will receive the full point value regardless of how the dog performs. When checking in, the handler must inform the steward or judge which exercise will be used as the wild card. The exercises will be performed in the same order as the regular Novice class. The point values for the exercises, scoring and maximum total points are the same as the regular Novice class. OBEDIENCE BRACE CLASS: The Brace class will be for two dogs of the same breed that are eligible under these regulations and capable of performing the Novice exercises. The dogs need not be owned by the same person but will be handled by one handler. Dogs may be shown unattached or coupled (the coupling device will not be less than 6 inches in overall length). Whichever method is used will be continued throughout all exercises. A separate official entry form will be completed in full for each dog entered along with clear indication of the BRACE partner. Exercises, performances and judging will be as in the Novice class. The brace should work in unison at all times. Either or both dogs in a brace may be entered in another class or classes. VETERANS OBEDIENCE CLASS: We re excited to be offering The Veterans Obedience Class this year! The class is for for dogs that have an obedience title and are at least 7 years old on the date of the trial. The exercises will be performed and judged as in the Novice class. Dogs may be entered in another class or classes. This is a great chance to get your older dogs off-the-couch and recall the fun days of competition! Remember, regardless of the obedience title your dog has earned, here in the Veterans Class, exercises, performances and judging will be as in the Novice class! REDUCED ENTRY FEE TOO!

RULES PERTAINING TO NON-REGULAR CLASSES <CONTINUED> RALLY PAIRS NOVICE CLASS: The Rally Pairs Novice Class consists of competition by one handler working two dogs at one time through a rally course at the Novice Level. Dogs need not be owned by the same person, nor do they need to be the same breed. However, they must be handled by one handler. Scores will be based on a possible 200 points, with ties being broken by time. Scoring. All stations will be counted with a point value. The maximum point value that can be deducted at any one station will be 10 points per dog (20 total points). There will not be any NQs awarded for a performance. It is possible for a team to receive a negative score. All other rally rules and regulations will apply for each class level offered as a non-regular class. A separate official entry form will be completed in full for each dog entered along with clear indication of the PAIRS partner. Either or both dogs entered in Pairs may be entered in another class or classes. RALLY TEAM COMPETITION CLASS: For the non-regular Rally Team Competition, teams will consist of four dogs with a total possible score of 400 points for each team. The dogs need not be of the same breed. The NOVICE CLASS level will be used. All team members will run the course individually, with the team time running continuously. Time will start when the judge gives the first member of the team the forward command from the Start sign. The subsequent dog for each team starts when the previous handler for the team passes the Finish sign without an additional command of Forward by the judge. Timing for each team will begin when the judge commands the first handler in the team to begin with the command Forward and will stop when the fourth handler from the team passes the finish line. If jumps are required, they will be based on the height of the smallest dog on each competing team. Scoring. All stations will be counted with a point value. The maximum point value, which can be deducted at any one station, will be 10 points. There will not be any NQs awarded for a performance. It is possible for a team to receive a negative score. A separate official entry form will be completed in full for each dog entered along with clear indication of the TEAM partners. Dogs entered in TEAM COMPETITION may be entered in another class or classes.
