Versatility Award

Please direct all applications and questions to our Program Coordinator.

 

Versatility Award Requirements

Dogs must accumulate 5 points, with at least one point from each of the 3 categories (conformation, obedience (including rally, obedience and agility), TT/CGN.  Note that points are counted for the highest level achieved in a category.  Under the Obedience Category points may be earned in obedience, rally and agility, since they each require totally different types of training.  Maximum points available are Conformation (4); Obedience (6); Obedience/Tracking (6); Obedience/Rally (4); Obedience/Agility (6); CGN/TT (2).  Note that in Agility, titles can be earned in both the Standard Classes and Jumpers with Weaves (JWW) Classes, either regular or preferred level.  However, versatility points are awarded only for the highest title earned, regardless of course or level.

No additional points will be awarded for Rally Advanced Excellent (RAE) title

EXAMPLE:  A dog with the following accomplishments would earn the following points.

              CH                       3 Points in Conformation

              CDX                    3 Points in Obedience

              CGN                    1 Point  (Canine Good Neighbour)

Versatility Excellent Award Requirements

Dogs must accumulate 10 points, with at least one point from each of the three categories.

Note – TT and CGN have been grouped together due to the fact both are a basic test of the dog’s temperament and ability to interact with other dogs and humans in a social manner.

Applying for a Versatility Award

It is the responsibility of the owner of an eligible dog to apply for either the versatility award or the versatility excellent award.  The application should include copies of the dog’s CKC registration certificate, and the latest CKC certificate reflecting all the necessary titles.  In the case of a dog that has conformation points but not a Championship, a copy of the record of the 1-point or better win as it appears in the CKC publication must be provided. 

The application information should be sent to the PCOC Versatility Cordinator at least 6 weeks prior to the PCOC National Specialty Show to provide adequate time to prepare the awards for presentation.  If it is likely that the dog will complete the requirements for the award at the national specialty, the application information should still be sent at least 6 weeks in advance, with an explanatory note about the missing title(s).  This will allow for the award to be available for presentation if the requirements are completed before the PCOC versatility awards presentation.

Application information should be sent to the National Specialty Show Committee. But the application itself should be sent to our VA Program Coordinator, as indicated below.
