1)
The class will be "open only to all dogs of all UKA levels and
heights".
2) Dogs of different heights can be mixed
within the pair as follows: Toy/ Toy, Toy/ Midi, Midi/ Midi
dogs can be paired; these dogs will run over Toy height.
Standard/ Standard, Standard/ Maxi, Maxi/ Maxi dogs can
be paired; these dogs will run over Standard height. All
pairs/ heights/ levels will be competing against each other.
3) There will be four qualifying heats. The
top four pairs from each heat will qualify for the Final. Once a
pair has qualified for the final, they may run for competition
in further heats. If they again are placed top four then the
next placed pair from that heat will be invited to the final.
4) Handlers may enter more than one pair.
Dogs may only compete in one pair in any heat
5) The course will consist of two separate
sections, one agility, and one jumping. One dog will complete
the Jumping section and the other dog will complete the Agility
section. The handlers must elect which dog is to do which before
commencing the run. 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.
6) The course will consist of no more than
15 obstacles per section. The Jumping will be made up of jumps
and tunnels. The Agility section should contain jumps, tunnels,
Dogwalk, Seesaw & Aframe. The weaves MUST be in either one or
both sections. Sections should not intertwine excessively. The
courses should be fast and flowing.
7) The changeover box, and jumps leading
into it, should be set, as to allow for a smooth, fast
changeover without much deviation from the handlers path.
8) If a dog is eliminated, it will incur 100
faults. The dog running the agility course must always run
first.
9) Only handlers and dogs originally entered
may compete at the final. Any changes are at the
organisers’
discretion.
