Vetting
There will be no formal vetting. However, the Committee and officials of the Nationals Working Party reserve the right to inspect any dog at any time. As per rule 4.6 Bitches in season are not permitted to compete in trials or be within the trial precincts. Any entrant that is found to be running a bitch in season or has a bitch in season within the trial precincts will be banned from running any dog in any further events. All dogs owned by the entrant will also be banned from running in any further events. Exceptions are any dogs in co-ownership that do not live with the banned entrant. Any finals spots that may have been achieved by the banned entrant (regardless of the dog) will also be deemed ineligible for finals.
Height Cards
As per rule 4.3, all dogs must have a valid signed Height Card prior to competing in any ANKC trial. Please ensure you bring your height card with you as proof of your dog’s height as this will be required at Check-in. If you are unable to locate your height card, you will need to contact the Agility Committee in your State to have a new card issued. The Nationals Working Group and Judges may also request to sight your Height Card and/or ask that your dog be measured.
Presentations
Presentations will be conducted at the end of each day in the Amenities Building, where awards will be presented for 1st to 3rd Place. Photos of handler and dog for each placing will be taken with the judge after each class has been presented. This will be in a dedicated area away from the presentation area to ensure presentations are completed as soon as possible.
Presentations for Teams and Juniors Teams will be after the event on Tuesday 9 July 2024. Presentation for Finals will be on Sunday 14 July 2024. Presentations for Games will be on the day of the event.
