Hi Martha: Implemented on May 12, outside of AOM judges select dogs & bitches they feel are worthy of Grand Champion points. This title is in addition to the Champion award on your dog (when completed). Only Champions are eligible to compete for these points and must obtain 25 points with majors to get the title. This is not an additional class but an additional award available to exhibitors at the discretion of the judge.

Not sure on all the rules yet but Dixee received two this past weekend toward her Grand Championship. Both she and the other bitch Special received one. Robin said they have to win 3 majors and 25 points......number of class bitches and Special bitches beaten. I thought I read 15 points. Hopefully someone can clarify. Is it number of bitch Specials beaten or total number of bitches? Or is it whatever the points are in the bitch classes? It is only for Champions and you just enter as a Special.

I think you only get the points for how many bitch specials you beat not the class ones?? The judges this weekend were confused. LOL Julie M. Lahr www.vonlahrheim.com Check out my show leads!

Brand new class for finished dogs, so that you can keep competing and not necessarily as a special.

only champions compete for these points in every show or just select shows?

Everything you ever wanted to know about this new class. The whether or not the class dogs are counted depends on the circumstance if I remember right, but if you follow the links it gives good examples. I actually like this class as it gives me a reason to continue to show my girl even though I do not want to special her. May 6, 2010 To All Conformation Judges: In accordance with the Rules Applying to Dog Shows the first Grand Championship points will be awarded beginning on May 12, 2010. This program comes at an opportune time as entries year to date have declined by over 30,000. For many owners there is little incentive to continue to exhibit dogs that have completed their championship title. All exhibitors do not have the financial means or desire to extensively campaign a dog in pursuit of top rankings. In addition many exhibitors are restricted in the number of dogs they can keep and this will allow them to show their dogs and continue to compete in AKC events. This title permits up to four quality dogs to be recognized without extensive travel as the Grand Champion title can be earned at all shows with Best of Breed competition. Grand Championships was enthusiastically endorsed by the Board of Directors and then presented to and voted on favorably by the delegate body. Upon the delegates approval Grand Champion became a part of the Rules Applying to Dog Shows. Since all AKC judges are expected to judge in accordance with the Rules Applying to Dog Shows the entire judging community will be an integral part of this program's success and how well exhibitors receive this exciting new title opportunity. Should you have any questions or concerns regarding this program do not hesitate to talk with a member of the Executive Field Staff or contact me. The documents listed below should provide clarity and understanding of the Grand Championship program that is being implemented on May 12, 2010. AKC Grand Championship Program provides an example of judging procedure. Explanation for Exhibitor & Judges has more detail and is exhibitor friendly. Grand Champion Judging Sequence is available and formatted to print on index type card. John P.

Bev, Thanks for the attachments. The only thing that is confusing to me is that if you are select dog, as an example, and you beat six other dogs, does that count at the major, even though that is not a point schedule major?
