How to enter your dog and earn AKC Titles Your dog must have an AKC QC form, or an ASFA certification form to enter it s first trial. Next, if your dog has practiced successfully with other dogs (not interfering either aggressively OR playfully), you should enter him in Open and work towards the Senior Courser (SC) title. If your dog also wins a placement he will earn points towards his Field Championship (see point scale below). CHECK OPEN ON THE ENTRY FORM, AND PAY THE ENTRY FEE FOR OPEN. There is no additional fee for the SC leg. To earn the SC title, the hound must run with at least one other hound, and must receive qualifying scores at FOUR (4) AKC trials under two different judges or judging panels. When your dog has earned the SC title, he most likely will still be competing for Field Championship points. If he receives qualifying scores in 25 trials, he will earn the Master Courser (MC) title. The title of Field Champion (FC) is a prefix to a hound s name. It is earned by obtaining 15 points from the Open or Veteran stakes. Dog must win 2 first placements worth 3 or more points under two different judges or judging panels (majors). A dog who has earned his Field Championship title must be entered in the Specials Stake..
