Championships

What is a Championship?
This is a determination by  3 approved judges to state the dog in question is a superior example of its breed.
To receive one of our Championships you must submit your one time $25 fee, a Championship Application, and 4 photographs of your dog:
1)standing showing a full side view of dog with a 12" ruler or measuring standard next to dog perpendicular to foreleg running from ground to withers. and the head facing straight forward. You can also have this done at a veterinary clinic (signed application from veterinarian with a way to reach them to ensure they are a valid clinic and did in fact measure said dog), you need another photo of the dogs other full side as well. Not all dogs will receive a championshp for this fee! The will enter your dogs photo's into the show, then your dog will be judged against the written standard by the 3 judges, you will receive a witten declaration from the judges. With the results contained therein.

(example of photo of dog next to standard 12" ruler)
2) a full rear view showing both rear legs and tail
3) a full front view showing both forelegs chest and head
4) a full face on head view
We then will forward along to 3 different judges the photo's of your dog, the judges will award them points based on your dog against the written standard.
The judge will not know the owner, or breeder of said dog just a call name is all that will be given.
The owner of the dog will not know what judge has viewed their dog just a judges number will be given, this we feel allows anonymity for all and precludes any unconscious political views. And creates a fair venue. There is no guarantee of championship. A dog MUST receive a minimum score from 3 different judges before it can attain a championship.
