Entries & Acceptance
General Rule on Eligibility

This event is sanctioned by the United States Dog Agility Association, Inc. ("USDAA").

This test is open to all persons with dogs being at least 18 months of age, regardless of pedigree or absence thereof, who have a current registration with USDAA and whose owners and the dog's handler are currently in good standing with USDAA.

This event will be held under USDAA® Official Rules and Regulations, a copy of which may be viewed and printed online at www.usdaa.com.


No Entry For Exhibition Only

Entries For Exhibition Only will not be accepted. Should a dog be required to jump a higher height by virtue of the judge's measure-in, it will be placed first in the running order at the higher height for all classes entered.


Policy on Refusal of Entry

The Organizing Committee of an event may refuse the entry of any competitor or dog for just cause should the Committee view that participation by the competitor or dog could be prejudicial to the sport. However, in such case, the Committee must notify the competitor in writing upon receipt of entry, but in no case, more than three days following the event closing date for acceptance of entries. The burden of responsibility for the appropriateness of such action rests solely with the host group and its Organizing Committee.


Refund Policy

There shall be NO REFUNDS for entries withdrawn after the closing date for acceptance of entries, for absentee, dismissal from the event as a result of disciplinary action, dismissal from a class, or for any other reason. Also, no entry fees will be refunded if the event cannot open or be completed by reason of riots, civil disturbances, acts of terrorism, fire, "act of God", public emergency, strike, or any other cause beyond the control of the host organization.


NSF Check/Credit Card

Any check or credit card that is charged back by the bank or other financial institution may be assessed a service charge of up to $40 per incident at the discretion of the host group.

Returned checks or credit card returns do not constitute a valid entry. Amounts shall be paid within 30 day of postmarked notice of the returned payment if such date follows the event date. Any fees not received within 30 days of notice will result in cancellation of event results for all classes related to the entry for which payment was made. No reinstatement of results is possible, and all awards must be returned within 10 days of notification or the dog's registration may be suspended pending restitution.

Any unpaid fees or shortfalls must be paid prior to the start of the event, or entry is canceled without recourse.


Submission of Entries with Secondary Move-Up Date

All entries or cancellations must be received at the Secretary's address no later than the closing date, after which time no entries will be accepted or cancelled. For entries received by the closing date, the level of entry into a given class may be advanced by notifying the Secretary in writing via email by the "Secondary Closing Date". No other changes, cancellations or additions may be made after the initial closing date.

To be accepted, entries must be complete, signed (by parent or legal guardian if handler is a minor), received by the closing date and accompanied by the correct fees and include a valid USDAA registration number on a completed registration form.

General Entry Conditions
Statement of Responsibility

A competitor whose dogs, children or guests create unnecessary disturbances or repeatedly engage in unsafe or disruptive behavior may, at the discretion of the Event Organizing Committee, be asked to leave the test site.


Policy on Fault Limits

In the event of a larger entry, fault limits may be set at the discretion of the Organizing Committee and/or Judge without pre-event notice.


Prohibitions on Aids & Devices

No leads, collars, food, toys or other aids or devices shall be permitted on the course at any time.

Show/Hide Check-In & Measuring
Check-in & Measuring
Dog Measurements & Certification

All dogs not jumping 26" in the Championship Program or 22" in the Performance Program must be measured unless they have a permanent USDAA or World Cynosport Dog Registration card or a temporary card with 3 signatures as required by the regulations, making the dog eligible for their jump height (prior to 3 years of age). When not enrolling electronically, please send a copy of one the following items to facilitate the check-in process:

  • photocopy of permanent dog registration card,
  • printout of the dog-information page from your USDAA® competitor web account, or
  • copy of your check-in letter from USDAA indicating your temporary card has been accepted by the USDAA office and your permanent registration card is in process.

 


Measuring

Change of jump heights will be made only when the dog is required to move into a higher category by the judge’s measure-in. The handler can decide to run for exhibition in the lower height, however no awards or qualifying scores may be earned and no change in program is allowed. 

 

The handler of a dog entered in Team or Versatility Pairs that is required to jump a higher height by virtue of the judge's measurement must notify the secretary immediately.   Should the higher jump height make the dog ineligible for their team (three jump heights), the secretary will make every effort to form complete teams from available dogs.  The dog may not be moved to Versatility Pairs.

In the event the competitor is unprepared to run their dog at the higher jump height, they may run in the tournament For Exhibition Only. No member of the Team or Pair may earn a tournament qualification, but Team or Pairs partners are eligible for individual placements, tournament top ten points and Lifetime Achievement Qs in the individual tournament classes.
