ELIGIBILITY FOR CLASSES

In the following definitions of classes First Prizes or other prize wins are those gained in standard classes at any Kennel Club licensed Championship Agility, Premier Agility, Open Agility or Limited Shows (i.e. special classes and invitational events excepted). Only a first place with a clear round completed within the course time set by the judge will count towards grade progression.

Standard classes may be scheduled for Agility Shows, as Agility classes or Jumping classes. All standard classes must contain the Weaving Poles obstacle. Standard Agility classes must contain the following elements: “A Ramp”, Dog Walk and See-Saw. With this proviso classes are defined as follows:-

Class Structure. A Class may either be held as a Graded Class or a Combined Class. A Graded Class may be scheduled for one or more consecutive Grades with separate results and awards issued for each grade. A Combined Class may be scheduled for more than one consecutive grade with one overall set of results.

Progression. Progression. Progression from each Grade will require one Agility win or three Jumping wins in standard classes at that grade, at either Full Height or the Lower Height Option, except that progression from Grade 5 will require 3 wins at Grade 5, one of which must be an agility class. Progression from Grade 6 will require 4 wins at Grade 6, two of which must be agility classes. Results from Combined Classes will only count towards progression from the dog’s current grade. Lower Height Option. Societies may offer the Lower Height Option to all dogs in that height category and may be offered at all grades. It is to be run as part of any Standard class as defined in the regulations and must be clearly identified in the schedule. Each relevant class will have two height with a change part way through to higher/lower the jump heights and competitors must run at their entered height. The order in which the heights will run must be detailed on the ring cards/ring plan. There will be only one course walking at the start of the class. In a class where the Lower Height Option is available show organisers may offer one set of awards by combining the results of each height or may offer separate awards for each height category. When the Lower Height Option is scheduled a dog may only be entered at either the Full Height or at the Lower Height and it cannot compete at a different height in any other class at that competition, including special classes. For these purposes a competition shall be defined as all classes covered within the same schedule. Points Progression. At the handler’s discretion a dog may progress up to Grade 4 by winning 100 points at each grade, using the Agility Warrant points scheme (Regulation K3.c refers), except that there is no requirement for a minimum number of agility points. If this method of progression is selected, the handler must ensure the Show Secretary signs the dog’s Agility Record Book at the first show entered at the higher grade. There is no time limit on this progression, however once a dog has progressed, it cannot return to a previous grade. Progression on points must be done prior to the closing date of entries. It is not possible to change a grade on points once the entries have closed.

TAG Team Dash sponsored by TAG & Norton Rosettes

The TAG Team Dash is a competition for teams of four dogs and handlers, run as a relay over a simple jumping course. It is designed as a flowing sprint event with spectator appeal; accessible to all grades of handlers and all heights of dogs plus LHO for Large. Teams of four large, four LHO Large, four medium or four small dogs run over the same course at their own height, under identical conditions. There are ten qualifying heats. The top two teams from each heat, regardless of height, qualify for a final comprising of twenty teams at the TAG July Summer show. It is a requirement of this competition that the course contains few (if any) traps, and is of 'fast and flowing style'. A simple course such as a figure of eight, or a largely circular or helter-skelter style course is most appropriate.

1. The competition is classified under Kennel Club Regulations as Combined Grades 1 to 7 and Special, and will be held under KC Rules and Show Regulations H & H1 as in force at the date of the competition. Additional rules apply as described below. Competitors entering this competition are deemed to have agreed to abide by these rules.

2. All dogs entered in the team (including reserves) MUST be entered in the show in at least 1 normal height class (i.e. not veterans or anysize).

3. All teams must consist of four dogs of the same height classification, handled by four separate handlers. All teams will compete over the same course at the appropriate height of the team of dogs competing. The heights are Large, LH Large Medium And Small.

4. Substitute dogs for teams are permitted, provided that (i) the dog(s) is/are already entered in the show, (ii) the dog(s) is/are not already entered in another team in this heat and (iii) alterations are made before the run and recorded on the scribe sheet.

5. Dogs may only compete in one team in any given heat. Should one dog be entered in more than one qualifying team across the heats then the first team to have qualified will go through to the final and any subsequent teams will not be eligible (this DOES NOT apply to handlers).

6. The course must contain two changeover lines, clearly marked with start/finish poles, each with a minimum gate width of 4m. Dogs 1 & 3 start behind line A and finish behind line B. Dogs 2 & 4 start behind line B and finish behind line A. (Handler 1 may use a recall start). The inward and outward courses can be different, but both dogs from behind the same line must run the same course.

7. The course each dog is required to negotiate shall contain no less than 14 and no more than 20 obstacles. 8. This is a relay event and two suitable batons must be provided. All baton changes must be completed with the handlers and

dogs behind the appropriate changeover line. Failure to comply with this, or an incorrect baton change (i.e. throwing or dropping the baton at changeover) will incur a penalty of 50 points on each occasion. Stewards may be appointed by the judge to adjudicate changeovers if required.

9. For each dog an elimination on the course incurs a single penalty of 100 points, however the judge will continue to mark any further faults on the remainder of the course and the faults of any remaining dogs.

10. The team with the fastest time and the least faults, wins. The top two teams from each heat qualify for the final (unless the heat is split – see rule 11).

11. If the entry for a heat exceeds the KC limit for a judge in a day then the class will be equally and randomly split. The winning team from each part will be regarded as the two qualifying teams from that heat.

12. Only the members of an original qualifying team (as specified on the scribe sheet at the time of the run) or the two original named reserves, will be allowed to compete in the final.

13. In the event of a team being unavailable for the final, a reserve team will be called from the heat in which the qualifying team qualified.

Individiual trophies and rosettes will be provided for 1st and 2nd placed teams and individual rosettes will be provided for 3rd to 6th placed teams (in the event of a split heat, trophies will go to 1st and rosettes to 3rd for each part).

The Jewlnick ‘Laser’ Knockout Pairs Rules

The ‘Laser’ knockout pairs is a fun competition, sponsored by Jewlnick and TAG.

1) The class will be open to all grades and sizes of dogs. Pairs can be large (2 large dogs), medium (2 medium dogs) or small (2

small dogs). Pairs cannot be a mixture of small, medium or large. Large pairs will compete over 650mm jumps. Medium pairs will

compete over 450mm jumps. Small pairs will compete over 350mm jumps. Running orders will be a random draw and a pair may be

drawn against a pair of a different height.

2) There will be eight qualifying heats. The top four pairs from each heat will qualify for the Final, which will take place at TAG

Summer show in 2018. Once a pair has qualified for the final, they may not run in further heats for the final which they have

qualified for.

3) Handlers may enter more than one pair. Dogs may only compete in one pair in any heat. If a handler has entered more than one

pair and is drawn to run against themselves, they may nominate another handler to run one of the dogs, that handler must then

continue to run the dog for the rest of the heat and if they qualify for the final, they must run the dog in the final. Alternatively, the

handler can nominate which pair should continue in the heat.

4) The pairs will compete against each other over two similar courses. There will be a judge for each course. There will be a baton

change between the first and second handler which must take place behind a line, failure to do so will incur 100 faults. Time and

faults will be added together and the winning pair will be the one with the lowest time. The judges’ decision will be final.

5) The course will consist of 10 obstacles, made up of jumps, tunnels and weaves (6 poles) only. Normal marking will apply. If a

dog is eliminated, it will incur 100 faults. Should both pairs be eliminated, the pair which was eliminated first will lose.

6) The winning pairs from each round will go through to the next round until there is only one pair remaining.

7) Pairs will be issued with a running order which must be strictly adhered to. Pairs failing to run when due will be knocked out and

the other pair will go through to the next round.

8) Only handlers and dogs originally entered may compete at the final (except in the case of rule 3). Any changes are at the

organisers’ discretion.

The winners and runners up for each heat will receive a trophy and rosettes will be presented to the first 8 pairs.

Dogs in Vehicles on Hot Days Your dog is vulnerable and at risk during hot weather. The Kennel Club offers the following guidance to help guide you through the do’s and don’ts travelling to, and whilst at, KC licensed events. When travelling to a show please take a moment to consider whether the route to the show is on a busy holiday route and leave earlier to avoid increased time in traffic jams. • If your vehicle is not air-conditioned seriously consider whether travelling to the show is a good idea at all. • The vehicle should be as fully ventilated as possible, and plenty of stops should be taken, with lots of water available to drink. • Ensure your dog is not sitting in full sunlight. There should be plenty of free flowing air around the dog. • When at the show, never leave your dog in an enclosed vehicle. • Keep the dog in the shade – take your own shade. For example a large umbrella and sheets, and always have plenty of water

available to drink so your dog stays well hydrated. Avoid your dog taking part in unnecessary exertion, or from standing in exposed sunlight for extended lengths of time. Remember, if you feel hot your dog is very likely to feel much hotter and dehydrated, and this could lead to dire results. Please look after your dog’s welfare.
