January 2010 -
AKC has a lot of
rule updates and changes this year:
Changes to Rules Applying to Dog Shows
Chapter 3, Section 3
Effective: January 1, 2010
Bred-by-Exhibitor class entrants must be
registered by the date of the event.
Chapter 3, Section 5
Effective: July 1, 2010
The Twelve-to-Eighteen Month class can be
further divided into two age groups consisting of twelve month
of age and under fifteen month, and fifteen months of age but
under eighteen month of age.
Chapter 3, Section 14
Effective: With the implementation of the May 12, 2010 Point
Schedule
Grand
Champion points may be awarded to the Best of Breed or Best of
Variety of Breed, Best of Opposite Sex to Best of Breed or Best
of Variety of Breed, Select Dog and Select Bitch.
Chapter 3, Section 15
Effective: With the implementation of the May 12, 2010 Point
Schedule
Grand
Champion points will not be awarded beyond variety competition.
Chapter 3, Section 23
Effective: January 1, 2010
Winners of the Best of Breed and Best of
Opposite Sex in each of the individual miscellaneous breeds will
be awarded points towards the Certificate of Merit (CM) title
based on the number of dogs defeated. Upon completion of the CM
title a dog may continue to compete in the Miscellaneous class
so long as they are of an eligible breed. The CM suffix title is
an introductory title to AKC conformation events and will be
superseded by the CH title when earned. A detailed explanation
of the CM point structure may be found in the May 2009 Board of
Directors Meeting Minutes.
Chapter 5, Section 1
Effective: With the implementation of the May 12, 2010 Point
Schedule
Ribbon
color for the Select award is light blue and white.
Chapter 11, Section 1
Effective: January 1, 2010
All dogs must be individually registered
by the day of the event to be eligible to exhibit at an AKC
event. No dog shall be exhibited in a licensed or member dog
show, except for dogs entered in the Miscellaneous Class unless
it is either individually registered in the AKC Stud Book, or
individually registered with a foreign registry organization
whose pedigrees are acceptable for AKC registration. Only dogs
that are individually registered with a foreign registry
organization and whose registration with the AKC has been
delayed will be eligible for an extension.
Chapter 11, Section 4
Effective: January 1, 2010
An AKC litter number will no longer be
accepted on an entry form. In addition, a Purebred Alternative
Listing (PAL) or Indefinite Listing Privilege (ILP) number will
be acceptable for participation in appropriate classes.
Chapter 12, Section 4
Effective: January 1, 2010
Because an AKC litter number will no
longer be accepted on entries, it will not be necessary to
provide this information in the printed catalog.
Chapter 16, Section 6 Effective: With the implementation of the
May 12, 2010 Point Schedule
Grand Champion points cannot be earned
until a dog has completed the requirements for a championship.
The Grand Champion points will be recorded according to the
number of eligible dogs competing in the regular classes of each
breed or variety, as well as dogs competing in Best of Breed
competition according to the Schedule of Points established by
the Board of Directors.
Best of Breed or Best
of Variety of Breed will count all eligible dogs of both sexes
competing in Best of Breed or Best of Variety of Breed in
addition to the dogs that competed in the regular classes for
both sexes in calculating Grand Champion points.
Best of Opposite Sex
to Best of Breed or Best of Variety of Breed shall count all
eligible dogs of their sex competing in Best of Breed or Best of
Variety of Breed competition in addition to the dogs that
competed in the regular classes for their sex in calculating
Grand Championship points.
Select Dog or Select
Bitch shall count all eligible dogs of their sex defeated in
Best of Breed or Best of Variety of Breed competition in
addition to the dogs that competed in the regular classes for
their sex in calculating Grand Championship points.
Chapter 16, Section 7
Effective: With the implementation of the May 12, 2010 Point
Schedule
To
become a Grand Champion a dog that is a Champion of Record must
have twenty-five Grand Champion points. Nine or more of those
points must have been won at three shows with a rating of three
or more Grand Champion points each and under three different
judges. Additional, some one or more of the balance of said
points must have been won under some other judge or judges than
the three judge referred to above and at least on Champion of
Record was defeated at three shows.

The Boy in the picture got his
Master Courser Title for AKC Lure Coursing on Saturday October
10th of this year at the IWAGS Lure Coursing Trial. Over the
last 5 years, every run he successfully completed (with A LOT OF
DRIVE AND STRENGTH as some of you witnessed personally) was done
at North Branch Park at the IWAGS events in New Jersey; under
the careful guidance, help and watch of the Flanagans at
Carrickaneena.
Thank you ever so much Mrs. and Og for all
you’ve done for our McGuire, for the IWs and the club.
McGuire continues
to be a true blessing in my life, my first IW, a Dual Champion.
I am so thankful for having him and I am proud of his
accomplishments. Thank you all for your continued love and
support.

A Tribute to Jonathan Jordan
 |
It is with great sadness that I tell
you Jonathan Jordan passed away last
week after a long illness. We
have lost a great judge, a dedicated
animal lover and a dear friend.
Jonathan was a kind and gentle man –
always willing to help or explain
anything to a newcomer or to the
rest of us who have been around
forever. I learned a lot from
Jonathan and I appreciated the time
he spent to teach us. He was
patient, deliberate and totally
honest in his quest to find the
winner when he was judging.
He loved lure coursing and the
dogs. Jonathan always did his
best when he was judging and I only
hope that we will see more judges
who will emulate his love and
dedication to this wonderful sport.
I for one will miss him greatly as
I know so many of you will. So
Jonathan “Tally
Ho”.
