While one dog may be content to lounge on their bed most of the day, another of the same breed may be eager to play, walk, and run around as much as possible, even past puppyhood. ![Does Breed Really Affect Your Dog’s Temperament and Behavior?](https://b2729410.assetcdn.net/2729410/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/246461-2.jpg?lossy=1&strip=0&webp=1) Since dogs of the same and similar breeds can be so different, it may seem like dog breed does not play a huge role in temperament and behavior. However, through selective breeding over many, if not hundreds of generations, the traits and qualities certain dog breeds possess have continually been selected and refined, becoming more heavily ingrained. As dogs were domesticated over the past few hundred years, purebreds have continuously been bred and developed for a certain purpose. For example, some breeds were refined for tasks like pulling sleds, herding livestock, hunting birds, or even providing simple companionship. These traits are reflected in common dog breeds today and should be a factor you consider when you bring a new dog home. Before bringing a new puppy into your life, do your research on the breed you want and learn about the dog’s needs for mental stimulation, exercise, space, and grooming. This will help you find a dog that fits your lifestyle, whether you have young kids, are a big hiker or jogger, or like to spend your weekends relaxing on the couch. At the same time, there is never a guarantee that your dog will behave a certain way based on their breed. But understanding breed characteristics can provide a baseline to determine if a certain type of dog will thrive in your home environment. **Categories:** Blog --- ### [Understanding the Importance of a Purebred Registry](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/understanding-the-importance-of-a-purebred-registry/) **Published:** February 9, 2024 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** At National Kennel Club,[ we offer a purebred registry](/dog-registry/purebred-registry/) to maintain accurate records and preserve sporting events and breeding for purebred dogs. ![Understanding the Importance of a Purebred Registry](/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/iStock-865700700-res.jpg) Our purebred registry helps protect pedigree in many ways, including the following: **• Preservation of Records.** A purebred registry’s main job is to keep complete and correct records of each animal’s bloodline.

They are gentle and patient, forging a close bond that can last for years. As with any breed, though, it’s important to teach kids and dogs how to be safe around each other. **• Low Grooming Needs.** Because American bulldogs have short hair, they don’t need much grooming.

At National Kennel Club, we have [valuable coon & squirrel information](/coon-squirrel-information/) to help you and your dog get the most out of the season. ![Get Your Dog Ready to Hunt With Coon & Squirrel Information](/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/iStock-1078148820-res.jpg) **• Pick the Right Breed.** Choosing a breed that is good at hunting is the first step. Because they naturally hunt, breeds like treeing walker coonhounds, redbone coonhounds, and feists are popular picks. **• Basic Training For Obedience.** Your dog will need to know basic obedience instructions like sit, stay, come, and heel before you start training them for hunting. This will help you stay in charge during the hunt. **• Work on Socialization.** From a young age, get your dog used to people, other dogs, and different places. A dog that has been trained well is less likely to act out or get scared while hunting. In addition to our coon & squirrel information, we host an annual sanctioned hunt that you might be interested in once you and your dog are ready. **• Scent Training.** In addition to basic training, your dog will need scent training. Smell drags or training tools with scents can help you do this. As your dog learns how to follow smell trails better, increasing the difficulty will help them be the best they can be. Check out our [coon & squirrel information](/coon-squirrel-information/) for more on this topic. **• Spend Time Outside.** Take your dog into the woods to get them used to the sounds, sights, and smells of hunting. You’ll also need to teach them treeing skills, including getting them to bark and circle the tree when they smell something they want to catch. ![Get Your Dog Ready to Hunt With Coon & Squirrel Information](/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/249701-National-Kennel-Club_Approved.jpg) These are just a few tips to work on to get your dog ready for hunting.

While this phrase may be familiar, have you ever wondered what it actually means? ![What Does it Mean to be a Champion Bloodline Dog?](/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/246461-1.jpg) As the wording suggests, a champion bloodline dog is one that has champions in its bloodline. Keep in mind that this does not necessarily mean that both the puppy’s dad and mom are winners in the show ring. Instead, a champion bloodline means that at least one of the puppy’s grandparents or parents has earned a championship title in a dog show. So, if a breeder advertises that a puppy comes from champion bloodlines, this could mean that the puppy’s grandmother from its father’s side or one of its parents was a champion in the show ring at least once. As you choose a puppy, remember that, while finding a champion bloodline dog can be important, it should not necessarily be the be-all and end-all of your decision. When a breeder tells you a puppy comes from a champion bloodline, ask which titles the puppy’s ancestors earned and request the official pedigree. While seeking a puppy from a champion bloodline may guide your decision, there are many other factors you should consider. Do your research on different breeds and make sure you a choose a puppy with the right exercise needs, training requirements, personality, and temperament to complement your lifestyle. **Categories:** Blog --- ### [Key Differences Between English and American Bulldogs](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/key-differences-between-english-and-american-bulldogs/) **Published:** July 10, 2024 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** Our team at the National Kennel Club has extensive experience in working with dogs and their owners, and we have the right knowledge to identify various dog breeds. Correctly identifying a dog’s breed can be tricky because many breeds have similar names. For example, in our experience, many people get English and [American bulldogs](/american-bulldogs/) confused with one another. ![Key Differences Between English and American Bulldogs](/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/iStock-508027096-res.jpg) To help correct this confusion, we have put together this article to explain a few of the key differences between these two types of bulldogs. 1. **Size –** One factor which sets American bulldogs apart from their English counterparts is their size. American bulldogs are larger than English ones. American bulldogs can weigh anywhere from 60 to 130 pounds, and their height ranges between 20 to 28 inches at the shoulder. In contrast, English bulldogs are much lighter at just 40 to 50 pounds, and their shoulder height caps out at just 15 inches. 2. **Head and Jaws –** Another area where you will find differences between English and American bulldogs is the shapes of their heads and jaws. English bulldogs are known for having wide, rounded heads, short (almost flat) muzzles, and signature wrinkles and folds around the face. American bulldogs, on the other hand, have longer muzzles and powerful jaws, and they lack the abundant wrinkles of their English counterparts. 3. **Temperament –** English and American bulldogs also have significant differences in temperament and personality (although individual dogs can vary quite a bit within breeds). [American bulldogs tend to be more energetic than English ones](/american-bulldogs/), requiring more active exercise and play. In addition, they are generally more territorial, while English bulldogs tend to be more relaxed around people and other dogs. ### Related posts: [## The History of American Bulldogs](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/the-history-of-american-bulldogs/)[## American Bulldogs Make Great Family Members](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/american-bulldogs-make-great-family-members/)[## 5 Fun Facts About American Bulldogs](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/5-fun-facts-about-american-bulldogs/) **Categories:** Blog **Tags:** American Bulldogs --- ### [Working Dog Breeds That Might Surprise You](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/working-dog-breeds-that-might-surprise-you/) **Published:** August 10, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** At the National Kennel Club, our goal is to help people learn about dogs—both how to take care of their dogs, as well as about various dog breeds and their history. While most people know that some dogs were originally bred to do specific jobs, not everyone realizes just how many dog breeds were meant to work, as many dog breeds that started out as workers are now used primarily for companionship. In this article, we will go over a few dog breeds who were originally bred for work that might surprise you. ![Working Dog Breeds That Might Surprise You](/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/iStock-1345088147-res.jpg) **• Dachshund.** Due to their small size and comical proportions, dachshunds are a breed that many people have trouble imagining doing any kind of work. However, these dogs’ long bodies and short legs make them ideal for hunting rabbits, foxes, and even badgers—they can go into these animals’ dens or tunnels and drag them out to the waiting hunters. **• Doberman Pinscher.** While most people can imagine a Doberman working more easily than they can a dachshund, what the breed’s original job was is likely to come as a surprise. The creator of the breed, Louis Doberman, worked as both a dog breeder and a tax collector in 19th century Germany, and he bred the first of these dogs to protect him as he made his rounds collecting tax money. ![Working Dog Breeds That Might Surprise You](/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/237612-National-Kennel-Club_Approved-res.jpg) **• Pekingese.** Another dog breed that most people think of as too small to do useful work is the Pekingese, and in some ways, they are correct, as these dogs didn’t perform tasks the way that other working breeds do. However, Pekingese dogs did perform an important role in the courts of the ancient Chinese ruling class, as they kept fleas off their human owners. **Categories:** Blog --- ### [Resolving Conflict with a Breeder Prior to the Dog Registration Process](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/resolving-conflict-with-a-breeder-prior-to-the-dog-registration-process/) **Published:** December 1, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** The [dog registration process](/dog-registration/) allows you to track your dog’s breed and preserve its place in breed history. If you are having issues with a breeder prior to the [dog registration](/dog-registration/) process, here are some frequently asked questions we received about resolving conflict with a breeder and protecting the health and happiness of your new dog. ![Resolving Conflict with a Breeder Prior to the Dog Registration Process](/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/235280-1.jpg) **What happens if I purchased a new puppy and it gets sick?** We always have concerns when we learn that a dog is sick after a sale or a puppy has a congenital defect. However, we do not have any control of the business practices of breeders and the results of these transactions. We do promote sound breeding practices at the National Kennel Club through ongoing education and research. Although many breeders will provide guarantees relating to the health of the dogs they breed, our jurisdiction does not extend to making sure breeders follow best practices. **Can I submit a complaint to you about a breeder?** If you are having issues with a breeder, please send us a letter that details the situation and any copies of supporting documents you have. If possible, please give us the full names, addresses, and phone numbers of anyone involved in the situation. We will assess the situation, get in contact with the breeder, and then contact you. **What should buyers and sellers agree on before the sale of a puppy?** We view the purchase of a puppy as a private transaction that occurs between the buyer and the breeder. We believe that breeders should stand behind their product and act responsibly. Ask your breeder before purchasing what kind of opinions they have regarding the rights of the seller and buyer, as well as their return and buyback policies. In many cases, developing a contract for the sale can help eliminate issues later on. ### Related posts: [## 3 Reasons Dog Registration is Essential \[infographic\]](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/3-reasons-dog-registration-is-essential/)[## Four Benefits of Dog Registration](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/four-benefits-of-dog-registration/)[## Top Four Benefits of Dog Registration \[infographic\]](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/top-four-benefits-of-dog-registration/) **Categories:** Blog **Tags:** Dog Registration --- ### [Caring for a Senior Dog: Common Health Concerns to be Aware Of](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/caring-for-a-senior-dog-common-health-concerns-to-be-aware-of/) **Published:** December 9, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** Aging is a natural part of life for dogs and humans alike. As your dog starts to get older, they may take more naps, their coat may start to go gray, and their pace may slow. When you start to notice changes to your senior dog’s appearance and behavior, it is important to help your dog feel their best while watching out for indicators of serious health concerns. ![Caring for a Senior Dog: Common Health Concerns to be Aware Of](/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/235280-2.jpg) **Obesity** If your dog is overweight, it can exacerbate health problems like arthritis and increase your dog’s risk of developing other complications, like heart disease. Talk to your veterinarian about your dog’s calorie requirements and adjust their diet based on these recommendations. **Arthritis** While your dog may just move slower as they get older, if they start to limp or seem stiff, arthritis could be the cause. Your dog could have arthritis if they have a hard time getting up or down, show a decreased interest in playing, jumping, or running, have a difficult time squatting to use the bathroom, or seem sensitive to petting. **Cognitive Decline** Your dog may become more anxious or forgetful as they age. While cognitive decline is a normal part of getting older for dogs, it can also be related to other health conditions, like Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome (CDS), which is like Alzheimer’s for dogs. **Vision and Hearing Loss** Your dog may start to experience gradual changes to their hearing and vision, so you may not even notice vision and hearing loss becoming a problem. While dogs will adjust to using their other senses, your dog could have major hearing and vision loss if they ignore your cues, no longer make eye contact, bump into furniture or walls, or ignore sounds that used to be exciting. **Categories:** Blog --- ### [Five Care Tips For Beagles](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/five-care-tips-for-beagles/) **Published:** December 11, 2023 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** [Beagles](/beagles/) are known for being friendly and active, which makes them great pets for both families and individuals.

Playful Energy.** As a breed, beagles are very busy and have a lot of energy to burn. To stay fit and mentally sharp, they need to exercise often. You should plan to be active with your pup for at least 30 to 60 minutes each day. Brisk walks, runs, or playing in a safe, fenced yard are all good options. **2. Training and Socialization.** [Beagles are intelligent](/beagles/). It’s a good idea to start obedience training them early to teach them good manners and get them used to people and other dogs. This preparation also helps get them ready for sanctioned events. **3. Grooming Necessities.** Beagles’ short, dense hair is relatively easy to take care of. Brushing them once a week keeps their coat healthy and gets rid of loose hair. Something to be mindful of is that beagles often get ear infections, so make sure you check their ears regularly. **4. Nutrition.** Your beagle needs a healthy, well-balanced diet that fits their age, size, and amount of activity. When in doubt, ask your vet for advice on what to feed them and how often. **5. Health and Dental Care:** To keep an eye on your beagle’s general health, you need to take them to the vet for regular check-ups. Talk to your vet about any health issues that are unique to your dog’s breed. Also, tooth toys and dental chews can keep plaque from building up and reduce the risk of gum disease. Following these tips will help your furry friend have a long, happy, and healthy life as a beloved part of your family. Always remember that every dog is different, so pay attention to what your beagle wants and needs. ### Related posts: [## Five Things You Should Know About Beagles in Competition](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/five-things-you-should-know-about-beagles-in-competition/)[## Four Fun Facts About Beagles](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/four-fun-fact-about-beagles/)[## Four Fun Facts About Beagles](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/four-fun-facts-about-beagles/) **Categories:** Blog **Tags:** Beagles --- ### [Fast Facts About the American Bulldog](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/fast-facts-about-the-american-bulldog-infographic/) **Published:** September 12, 2023 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** The American bulldog is a strong, energetic breed that was originally bred to assist with various farming tasks.

Over time, the need for working dogs has declined, and most dogs are now used purely for companionship. However, there are still many dogs at work today, and in this article, we will go over a few types of working dogs and the jobs they do. This article will not focus on particular breeds, but rather on the variety of work that dogs are used for. ![Types of Modern Working Dogs](/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/iStock-1335562886-res.jpg) **• Service Dogs.** In today’s world, the type of working dog that most people encounter first is the service dog. These dogs are trained to assist people with disabilities by performing specific tasks that their handler could not do on their own—for example, guiding a person with visual impairments around obstacles, alerting someone with epilepsy when they are about to have a seizure or finding someone to help, or fetching or carrying items for someone with limited mobility. **• Therapy Dogs.** Another type of working dog you may have encountered is the therapy dog. Unlike service dogs, therapy dogs are not trained to do specific tasks for one handler, but rather to provide emotional support to people who are sick, injured, or suffering from trauma. There are no restrictions on what breeds of dogs can become therapy dogs, but they must be even-tempered and non-fearful and must also be well-trained and well-socialized. **• Herding Dogs.** While they are perhaps less widely used than they used to be, there are still plenty of herding dogs in the world. Many modern farmers of sheep, cattle, and other livestock still rely on herding dogs to manage their animals and corral them safely and efficiently from one part of the farm to another. **Categories:** Blog --- ### [How to Care for Your Beagle](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/how-to-care-for-your-beagle/) **Published:** June 10, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** At the National Kennel Club, we want to help you take good care of your dog, and we know that different breeds have different care requirements. In this article, we will focus on beagles, and go over the essentials of how to care for these dogs. ![How to Care for Your Beagle](/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/iStock-168324827-res.jpg) **• Take Your Beagle for Regular Vet Checkups.** A key part of caring for any dog is to take them for regular checkups at the veterinarian’s office, and this is especially important for beagles. These dogs are genetically predisposed to a variety of health conditions, including intervertebral disk disease, hip dysplasia, epilepsy, and hypothyroidism, as well as several eye diseases. By taking your beagle to the vet regularly, you should be able to identify signs of these conditions early on, and the vet may be able to treat them before they progress. **• Feed Your Beagle a Healthy Diet.** Another key part of caring for your beagle is to feed them a healthy diet. We recommend that you follow your local veterinarian’s guidance on the amount of food to feed your beagle as the amount varies due to the age and activity level of your dog. We recommend you choose high-quality food that is made with whole ingredients. Don’t simply leave food out in a bowl for your dog to eat as they like, as this can lead them to become overweight. **• Make Sure Your Beagle Gets Plenty of Exercise.** Beagles require at least an hour of exercise per day to remain healthy and content, so we recommend taking your dog on several walks per day or letting them get their exercise in with training or with hunting rabbits. **Categories:** Blog --- ### [Distinguishing the Many Types of Bulldogs](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/distinguishing-the-many-types-of-bulldogs/) **Published:** May 13, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** One of the things that we specialize in here at the National Kennel Club is, unsurprisingly, identifying different dog breeds. Dogs come in many shapes and sizes, and there are a seemingly endless variety of breeds in the world, many of which are hard to tell apart from one another. For example, many people struggle to tell the difference between the various types of bulldogs, such as the English, American, and French bulldogs. In this article, we will provide a brief overview on the key differences between these breeds, so you can more easily identify them. ![Distinguishing the Many Types of Bulldogs](/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/iStock-1349887615-res.jpg) **English Bulldogs** - Medium-sized, weighing between 40 and 50 pounds - Smooth coats - Wide shoulders and sturdy, short limbs - Short-faced (brachycephalic) heads, with overshot lower jaws - Flews (upper lips) that hang down over the mouth and teeth - Backs arch near the tail (called a wheel back or roach back) **American Bulldogs** There are two main lines of American bulldogs, the Scott type and the Johnson type. Scott-type bulldogs: - Are sleeker and more athletic than English bulldogs - Have lighter bones - Have longer muzzles with less pronounced underbite While Johnson-type bulldogs (or bully dogs): - Are bulkier, with more muscle mass - Have heavier bones - Have shorter muzzles with even more pronounced undershot bites **French Bulldogs** - Are smaller than English or American bulldogs, and should weigh no more than 28 pounds - Have large, square heads with round, dark eyes - Have “bat ears” – large, upright ears set high on the head with a broad base and rounded top - Have roach backs - Have heavily wrinkled faces, as well as loose skin by the throat **Categories:** Blog --- ### [Can Dogs Really Be Hypoallergenic?](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/can-dogs-really-be-hypoallergenic/) **Published:** September 9, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** Here at the National Kennel Club, we know there are many people who would love to have a dog but sadly can’t due to allergies. Countless people with dog allergies, or who have family members with dog allergies, share this conflict between what they want and what they know is best for their health, and this has led many to seek out so-called hypoallergenic dogs. Of course, some have their doubts about whether a dog can really be hypoallergenic, and that is the question we will be examining in this article. ![Can Dogs Really Be Hypoallergenic?](/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/iStock-1251278734-res.jpg) **No Dog is Completely Hypoallergenic** Dog allergies are caused by a sensitivity to the dogs’ dander (shed skin flakes). Unfortunately, there are no dog breeds that are 100% dander-free, as all mammals need to shed dead skin cells in order to remain healthy. However… **Some Dogs are Less Allergenic Than Others** While no dog is 100% hypoallergenic in the way that, say, a lotion can be hypoallergenic, there are certain dog breeds that are better suited to allergy sufferers than others. Dog breeds with non-shedding coats tend to produce less dander, which makes it easier for people with allergies to enjoy their companionship. While a complete list of allergy-friendly dog breeds is beyond the scope of this article, here are a few examples to get you started: - Poodles - Afghan Hounds - American Hairless Terriers - Bedlington Terriers - Yorkshire Terriers - Coton de Tulears - Malteses - Giant Schnauzers - Irish Water Spaniels **Categories:** Blog --- ### [Our New Website is Live!](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/our-new-website-is-live/) **Published:** May 5, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** ![blog](/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/blog.jpg) We’ve been working on a new site for the last month, and we’re pleased to say it’s finally live! **Categories:** Blog --- ### [3 Reasons Dog Registration is Essential](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/3-reasons-dog-registration-is-essential/) **Published:** July 10, 2026 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** Understanding [dog registration is a key part of responsible ownership](/dog-registration/) and breeding practices.

It can be overwhelming for first-time owners to choose a dog that best suits their home. [Dog breed education helps with understanding a breed’s temperament](/dog-breed-education/), grooming needs, and exercise demands to provide the best environment for their new companion. ![The Importance of Dog Breed Education for First-Time Owners](/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/iStock-83356884-res.jpg) Dog breed education is more than reading about size or color; it’s about understanding the unique traits that make each breed special. High-energy breeds like Border Collies or Australian Shepherds need mental stimulation and exercise, without which they can develop behavioral issues that frustrate inexperienced owners. On the other hand, more independent breeds need patient and consistent training to form strong bonds. Using dog breed education can also help to guide you towards the right dog for your lifestyle, home environment, and activity level. A young family might choose a friendly, loyal breed, while a single active person may prefer a dog that thrives on adventure. Understanding breed characteristics helps to prevent a mismatch that causes frustration or unmet needs for the dog. Another key benefit to educating yourself about dog breeds is understanding different socialization needs. Different dogs have varying comfort levels around strangers, children, or other pets.

[Dog breed standards shape how judges make decisions](/dog-breed-education/), and how breeders and owners approach training and care. If you have ever wondered why certain dogs excel in the ring, the answer starts with the standard. ![How Dog Breed Standards Influence Shows and Competitions](/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/iStock-1537010301-res.jpg) Dog breed standards are a way for judges to compare each dog against an “ideal” described in the standard for its breed. This includes physical traits, like size, coat, movement, and structure, as well as their temperament and overall condition. In a conformation show, the dog that most closely matches this written picture is the one that earns accolades. Since standards were originally rooted in a breed’s historical purpose, like herding or guarding, they still often reflect these functional traits. Judges will look at how a dog moves to see whether it has the structural soundness it was bred for. For example, a well-built working breed dog will typically move with a confident and efficient gait in the ring. Competitions help to educate spectators and new owners about the characteristics, history, and needs of different breeds. This turns what might look like a beauty pageant into a showcase of heritage and purpose.

At the National Kennel Club, we strive to make the process as easy and convenient as possible. ![Our Steps to Purebred Registration](/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/iStock-171155760-res.jpg) Here are our steps to purebred registration: 1. **Download our application form.** It’s a one-page form that gives us all the information we need to register your purebred. We have streamlined our processes to make them as quick as possible and we are always here to help if you have any questions. 2. **Verify other registries.** If your dog has been registered elsewhere, no problem. We only ask that you include a copy of the pedigree too, so we can verify the breed. We accept other registries as proof of pedigree in our registration process. 3. **Get a pedigree inspection.** If your dog has not been previously registered, you will need to have an inspection performed by a veterinarian or one of our licensed inspectors. We also require two photos of your dog (front and side view) to verify the breed. 4. **Include your dog’s lineage and other information.** Our form includes a lineage section to fill out going back up to three generations. If you have any questions or concerns about this, don’t hesitate to contact us. We also ask that you provide your dog’s DNA number and microchip number, if applicable. 5. **Send in your application form and payment.** We have several payment options to suit your needs. Processing times can take a few weeks depending on our backlog, and rushed service is available for an additional fee. ![Our Steps to Purebred Registration [infographic]](/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/280649-National-Kennel-Club_Approved.jpg) We’ve been providing exemplary [purebred registration](/dog-registration/purebred-registration/) for 60 years and are dedicated to supporting purebred breeds and their owners.

For example, most people can recognize a chihuahua on sight, but many people misidentify the Alaskan Malamute as the more well-known husky. In this article, we will focus on one of the best-known breeds: the beagle. ![3 Defining Traits of Beagles](/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/278424-2.jpg) While [beagles](/beagles/) are highly recognizable, they do have some look-alikes, so we will be going over three of this breed’s most defining characteristics to help you spot the real deal. 1. **Ears –** One of the most recognizable features of a beagle is its ears. Beagles’ ears are long, soft, and floppy. According to the official breed standards, a beagle’s ears should be long enough to almost—but not quite—reach the end of their nose when drawn out. Believe it or not, a beagle’s long ears help it to track scents: as their ears flop around, they stir up air near the ground, which blows scent molecules into their nostrils. 2. **Coat –** Beagles have short, smooth coats, and they require relatively little grooming. A beagle’s coat is actually a double coat, which means it has a longer layer of hair with a shorter, softer layer underneath for temperature regulation. In addition, [beagles typically have a tri-colored coat of black](/beagles/), white, and brown. 3. **Tails and Paws –** The last defining feature we’ll go over is the characteristic coloring of beagles’ tails and paws. All purebred beagles have white paws and white-tipped tails. If you want to learn more about the breed characteristics of these dogs, we encourage you to check out the rest of our site. ### Related posts: [## Four Fun Facts About Beagles](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/four-fun-fact-about-beagles/)[## Four Fun Facts About Beagles](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/four-fun-facts-about-beagles/)[## Five Things You Should Know About Beagles in Competition](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/five-things-you-should-know-about-beagles-in-competition/) **Categories:** Blog **Tags:** Beagles --- ### [What You Need to Know About the Puppy Registration Process](https://nationalkennelclub.com/blog/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-puppy-registration-process/) **Published:** April 10, 2024 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** Bringing a new puppy into your home is an exciting and challenging process.

The origin of **beagles** is difficult to pinpoint exactly, but many sources say that these dogs were originally bred back in 16th-century England for hunting purposes. In a sport known as “beagling,” these dogs were meant to hunt specifically for hares. Beagles as we know them today have changed significantly since the original breed in 1830s Great Britain, and around the 1870s, several beagles came to the U.S. for breeding. The beagles that came to the U.S. for this purpose are believed to be the original models for the American standard. ![Beagles in Blaine, Tennessee](/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/iStock-184102750res.jpg) Beagles look similar to small foxhounds thanks to their strong, sturdy bodies and their dome-like heads. These dogs have medium-length muzzles that are square-like, and they are known for their large, floppy ears and big eyes. Most beagles have tricolored, short coats in shades of white, brown, and black. Beagles do not get very big – they typically weigh about 20 pounds and stand about 13 inches tall. **Beagles** are your classic family dog because they are friendly, affectionate, cheerful, and highly engaging for kids. Most of these dogs get along with people in general, even strangers. They are also friendly with other dogs because they are usually bred in packs. Do you own a purebred beagle? We want you to register your dog with us at the National Kennel Club. By registering your beagle, you can protect its pedigree while simultaneously protecting good breeding practices. Registration also allows your dog to participate in several of the events and shows we sanction here in the **Blaine, Tennessee** area.

These **beagles** are believed to be the models for the first American standard. ![Beagles](/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/iStock-184102750res.jpg) Beagles look like small foxhounds with their strong, sturdy bodies and dome-like heads. Their muzzles are medium in length and square-like, and beagles are also known for their large eyes and floppy ears. They have short, typically tricolored coats that are shades of black, white, and brown. They stand somewhere around 13 inches tall at the shoulder and weigh around 20 pounds. **Beagles** are wonderful dogs for families. They are incredibly lively, affectionate, friendly, cheerful, and lots of fun for kids. They get along well with people and strangers, and because they were bred to be in packs, they also get along well with other dogs. If you own a purebred beagle, we encourage you to register your dog with us at the National Kennel Club. Registering with us not only protects your dog’s pedigree and promotes good breeding practices, but it also allows your dog to participate in a variety of fun events and shows we sanction here. If you have any questions for us, [don’t hesitate to give us a call](/contact-the-national-kennel-club/). --- [Beagles in Blaine, TN](/beagles-blaine-tn/) [Beagles in Tennessee](/beagles-tennessee/) --- ### [Beagles, Tennessee](https://nationalkennelclub.com/beagles-tennessee/) **Published:** May 9, 2024 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** ## Beagles are welcome to be part of our registry, and the process to include them is quick and easy. Beagles are canines that fit into the hound group, known for their curious and friendly temperaments. Most are between 13 and 15 inches in size, weighing under 30 pounds. The life expectancy is around 10 to 15 years. Originally, **beagles** were bred as hunting dogs and loving companions, but they are also ideal family dogs because they tend to be more easygoing than other breeds, particularly with younger children. The breed is often split into two main categories: Under 13 inches at the shoulder and between 13 and 15 inches. ![Beagles in Tennessee](/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/iStock-184102750res.jpg) When you look at **beagles**, you may notice their unique colors and markings. Most have large hazel or brown eyes, which can give off a pleading look, with long ears and a broad head. The color patterns often include tri-color, red and white, and lemon. Many beagles are highly energetic, which helps make them good for hunting and other sporting events. At the National Kennel Club, we work with the owners of these and other purebred dogs to maintain a registry and host competitions. If you’re in the state of **Tennessee**, we invite you to contact us to include your purebred beagle on our registry and maintain records. You can also sign your canine companion up to participate in shows, hunts, and other activities that may sound appealing. Beagles are welcome to be part of our registry, and the process to include them is quick and easy.

The 7/8 rule does not apply here, and any breeder who attempts to introduce other blood into the breed will not be eligible to register their American Bulldog. If your American Bulldog was not registered from a litter with us, we do allow single registering of the dog as long as the correct documentation is provided to prove its pedigree. We also accept single registering of American Bulldogs that were previously registered elsewhere. If your dog does not meet our requirements, you have the option to petition our office by filling out an application and providing photos of your dog from the front, sides, and back. We will then submit your application to the American Bulldog Board for review.

The American bulldog is a descendant of the Old English bulldog, a muscular, mastiff-type dog breed. Bulldogs are believed to have arrived in America centuries ago, brought by English immigrants who kept the dogs for various purposes. This particular breed is known for its ability to work as a stock or catch dog, as well as a guardian on a ranch or farm. Their muscular bodies are also good for various sporting and work-related tasks. The presence of feral pigs throughout the American South led to an increase in breeding, as American bulldogs were among the only predators of these vermin. ![American Bulldog Information in Tennessee](/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/iStock-494571264-res.jpg) Today, the breed is popular as a working dog and a family pet, making this animal quite appealing. They are often social, confident, and lively, establishing strong bonds with their owners. But the dogs can also go back to their roots as guard dogs, helping to protect their homes and families from potential intruders. If you have a purebred American bulldog and you’re in **Tennessee**, you may want to consider learning more about this breed. At National Kennel Club, we offer **American bulldog information**, including options for registration and shows held throughout the state. When you review our **American bulldog information**, you’ll see that we only register dogs that are 100% purebred.

February 15, 2016 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** ## We have preserved the sport and breeding of purebred dogs since 1964. Since 1964, at the National Kennel Club, we have strived to preserve dog-related sporting events and breeding of purebred dogs. ![About National Kennel Club](/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/iStock-1204274923_res.jpg) One of the ways we further our mission is by maintaining a registry of [purebred dogs](/dog-registration/purebred-registration/). We register all types of purebred dogs, and you can add your dog to our registry even if it is already registered with another registry. We also recommend registering your dog if it has never been registered before, whether it is a new puppy or an older dog. ### Champion dogs, champion owners, champion service. In addition to our registry, we sanction all-breed dog shows, including events for beagles, squirrel dogs, bird dogs, fox dogs, coon dogs, and more. We want to maintain the sport of purebred dogs, and we sanction these events to bring dog owners together in a family-friendly atmosphere to continue the longstanding sport of showing dogs. We are happy to discuss any questions you have about our upcoming events, [dog registry](/dog-registry/), or our kennel certificates. Please [contact us today](/contact-the-national-kennel-club/). We are known for our Champion Dogs – Champion Owners – and Champion Service, and we are always eager to provide additional information. --- ### [Otterhound](https://nationalkennelclub.com/otterhound/) **Published:** February 23, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** ## Breed Standards for the Otterhound General Appearance: A big, strong hound, built for a long day’s work in water, the breed must also be able to gallop on land.

Following the standards will enable English breeders to develop a more uniform dog in appearance and performance. Dogs will be evaluated on the following; **General Appearance and Coat 10** A true hound appearance of any hound colors but redtick, bluetick, bspotted with ticks is preferred. Coat should be short, glossy and thick enough to offer protection from briars and weather. No scars from accident or hunting to count against dog in shows. **Head and Neck (teeth, jaws, muzzle, eyes, and ears) 15** Head should be broad and slightly domed. Neck should rise stately from shoulders with a slight taper toward the head. Muzzle of good length, nostrils wide apart, Jaws strong and well formed, eyes bright dark brown or black. Yellow or light eyes a fault. Ears are to hang moderately low, fine textured, and nearly to end of nose. **Front Quarters (chest, shoulders, front feet and legs) 15** Chest should be moderately broad and deep to ensure adequate lung space. Shoulders well proportioned, showing good muscles, tapering into well built strong and straight legs. Feet should be catlike and well padded. Dog should stand well on feet. Cow hocked, splay footed appearance is a major fault. **Hind Quarters (hips, back, back feet and legs, and tail) 15** Hips well muscled, tapering into strong straight legs, with strong catlike feet. Feet should be well padded and straight indicating speed and strength. Tail to be carried Gaily and high of medium size and length never cooked or rat tailed. **Special Characteristics of Breed 15** A strong muscular hound slightly higher at shoulder than hips with a broad deep chest. Preferred colors of red tick, blue tick, or spotted with ticks. Solid black, red, and brindle acceptable but not to desired. Voice should be a long hound bawl or chop. Males should be 22-27 inches tall and weighing between 50-75 lbs.; at hunting weight. Females should be 21-26 inches tall and weight between 45-65 lbs. A dog a little over or under these heights and weights is not to be penalized, if well proportioned. **Gait and Movement 15** The English Coonhound should appear racy slowing speed, strength, and endurance. An awkward or jerky movement is a serious fault. This hound is designated for long hours of hunting. Any weakness in Gait and Movement should be considered undesirable. **Temperament 15** The English Coonhound should appear happy and loveable. He should show boldness and trust for owner. Fighting or extreme shyness is a major fault. This dog is designed to hunt with other dogs. Any indication of wanting to fight on leash, in box, or on tree, is a serious fault. **—————Total 100** ![](https://nationalkennelclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/iStock-999938852-res.jpg) --- ### [Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever](https://nationalkennelclub.com/nova-scotia-duck-tolling-retriever/) **Published:** June 8, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** # Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever ![Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever](https://b2729410.assetcdn.net/2729410/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/iStock-951204834-res.jpg?lossy=1&strip=0&webp=1) ![Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever](data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==) ![Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever](data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==) --- ### [Norwich Terrier](https://nationalkennelclub.com/norwich-terrier/) **Published:** February 17, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** ## Breed Standards for the Norwich Terrier General Appearance: The Norwich Terrier is a loveable breed with a tremendously active and hardy constitution.

Effective immediately any American Bulldog that is being single registered must have either been previously registered by another registry or it must be inspected. Any dog that does not meet the requirements for registration can petition the NKC office for registration by submitting a completed application along with several pictures front, back and both sides. Those applications will be forwarded to the American Bulldog Board for verification of breed and possible registration. If as as puppy you show your American Bulldog in either the bully or standard class then before the dog is a year old you realize that the dog should have been shown in the other classas a puppy Once an Amercian Bulldog has been shown in either the Standard or Bully Show ring at a show it has to stay in that class.

A winner is picked from each age category. They have received Best of Class plaque if you are giving them. Then go thru the 6 months to under 1 year old Male pups, 1 to under 2 years old Junior Males, and 2 years and up Males.

One female will have two plaques– Best of Class and Best of Breed-Female. Then you bring back the winning Male from each class to pick the Best Male of Breed and he could have two plaques. This is done for EACH BREED. **Points awarded:** Best of Age – 15 points Best of Breed – 10 points for a total of 25 points Best of Show – 10 points for a total of 35 points To become a Bench Champion a dog must earn 100 points and 1 Best Male or Female of Show.

Our purebred dog conformation program welcomes breeders, owners, and handlers who are passionate about promoting responsible breeding and maintaining breed standards.

They also provide an excellent opportunity to connect with fellow enthusiasts, learn from experienced exhibitors, and become part of a community dedicated to the future of purebred dogs. Preparing for the show ring involves more than good grooming. Successful exhibitors invest time in training, socialization, and proper conditioning so their dogs can confidently demonstrate the qualities judges are evaluating. Every event is an opportunity to strengthen the bond between you and your dog while gaining experience and recognition. If your dog is eligible, now is the perfect time to become involved in purebred dog conformation.

If you own a purebred dog, registering them is an important part of ownership that helps open doors for both you and your dog. At the National Kennel Club, we’re proud to be a well-recognized **purebred dog registry** that supports dogs and their owners, building an extensive community that is dedicated to preserving breed standards and promoting the wellness of our beloved canine companions. ![Purebred Dog Registry](/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/iStock-104489865-res.jpg) As a **purebred dog registry**, we document important information such as the dog’s breed, date of birth, lineage, breeder, registration number, and ownership history. By preserving accurate records, we help maintain breed standards and provide owners with verified documentation of their dog’s heritage. For many owners, registration is far more than just paperwork – it’s a permanent record of your dog’s identity and lineage. Purebred dog registries make it easier to verify pedigree information, transfer ownership when necessary, and maintain accurate breeding records for future generations. Registering a purebred dog also opens the door to additional opportunities such as conformation shows, obedience, agility, rally, and scent work, as well as other popular canine sports. Registration also gives you access to educational resources, training programs, breed information, and communities of fellow dog enthusiasts. Whether you’re preparing to purchase your first purebred puppy, registering a litter, or transferring ownership of a beloved companion, our purebred dog registry is here to help preserve your dog’s documented history and provide valuable records.

When a registered dog changes owners, whether through a sale, adoption, or other circumstances, one of the important steps to ensure that the new ownership is recognized by kennel clubs, breed registries, and other organizations is transferring the registration. At the National Kennel Club, we love supporting the purebred community and offer dog registration owner transfer assistance for both dogs registered with us and those registered with other organizations. ![Dog Registration Owner Transfer](/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/iStock-1019254586res.jpg) ### Why Is Proper Registration Transfer Important? A **dog registration owner transfer** updates the official owner on the registration records. This is a key step when a dog changes owners because it: - Allows the new owner to register litters (if applicable) - Enables participation in certain events or competitions that require registered ownership - Ensures registration certificates and future correspondence or relevant documents go to the correct person One thing that we stress is that registration is not the same as legal ownership – the registration reflects who the registry recognizes as the owner. Legal ownership can only be established through a bill of sale, adoption contract, veterinary records, microchip registration, and other such documentation. Dog registration ownership transfer is merely a step in the overall change of ownership process, not the entire process. The typical **dog registration owner transfer** process requires: - The dog’s registration number - The signature of the current owner who is authorizing the transfer - The new owner’s information - Payment of a transfer fee - Submission of paperwork either online or by mail Our team would be happy to assist you with a dog owner registration transfer if you are planning on buying or selling, adopting, or otherwise taking over ownership of a registered dog. [Reach out to us today](/contact-the-national-kennel-club/) to learn more about how we can help you with this process. --- ### [Dog Breed Standards](https://nationalkennelclub.com/dog-breed-education/dog-breed-standards/) **Published:** July 20, 2026 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** ## By registering your dogs and staying informed about breed standards, you’re helping protect the future of the breeds you know and love. Dog breed standards serve as the foundation for preserving the unique characteristics that define every recognized breed. Developed by breed organizations and maintained by registries like ours at the National Kennel Club, these standards provide a detailed description of the ideal appearance, structure, movement, temperament, and overall qualities of a purebred dog. They help ensure each breed retains the traits that have made it distinctive throughout its history. ![Dog Breed Standards](/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/iStock-1338954116res.jpg) Understanding **dog breed standards** is valuable for breeders, exhibitors, and pet owners alike. For breeders, these standards provide guidance for making responsible breeding decisions that promote the health, soundness, and consistency of future generations. For owners, they offer insight into what to expect from a particular breed, including physical characteristics, personality traits, and breed-specific qualities that can influence training, care, and daily life. **Dog breed standards** also play an important role in conformation events, where judges evaluate how closely each dog matches the official standard for its breed. Rather than comparing dogs to one another, judges assess each entry against the established breed standard, recognizing dogs that best represent the qualities the breed was developed to exhibit. This process supports the preservation of breed integrity and encourages responsible breeding practices. Maintaining accurate registration records is an essential part of supporting dog breed standards. A registered pedigree helps document a dog’s lineage, provides verification of ancestry, and contributes to preserving the history of the breed. These records also help establish eligibility for conformation events, breeding programs, and other registry activities that celebrate purebred dogs. Whether you’re researching your first purebred puppy, developing a responsible breeding program, or preparing to enter the show ring, understanding dog breed standards is an important step. Our registry is committed to preserving the heritage of purebred dogs through accurate recordkeeping, responsible registration services, and resources that help breeders and owners make informed decisions.

If you breed purebred dogs, ensuring the litter is registered is a critical part of officially establishing lineage, as well as maintaining your authenticity and credibility as a breeder. **Dog litter registration** creates an official record of the puppies born from a registered sire and dam, and it’s something we offer here at the National Kennel Club. Whether you’re welcoming your first litter or you’re an experienced breeder, our registration process helps maintain accurate records that benefit both you as a breeder and the puppy owners for years to come. ![Dog Litter Registration](/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/iStock-2219624832res.jpg) To register a litter, we typically require information about the sire and dam, the date the litter was born, the number of puppies, and your contact information, as well as a few other supporting documents. Once the litter has been approved, each puppy is then eligible for individual registration, so new owners can transfer their ownership and maintain an official record of their dog’s pedigree. **Dog litter registration** also offers several advantages beyond documentation. It’s a key part of establishing buyer confidence, since buyers will know their puppy’s ancestry has been recorded. It also helps simplify ownership transfers and works to help preserve the integrity of established bloodlines. For breeders, maintaining accurate litter records also supports responsible breeding practices by creating a clear history for each breeding and the puppies it produces. If you’re ready to take the next step, complete your dog litter registration today and give your puppies a strong foundation for the future. It’s an easy investment to preserve their pedigree, support your future breeding program, and provide lasting value to every new owner. --- ### [Dog Breed Education](https://nationalkennelclub.com/dog-breed-education/) **Published:** July 2, 2025 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** ## We’re proud to offer thorough dog breed education for all types of purebreds.

The origin of the unusual slate blue coat and nose is a genetic rarity. All Lacy’s have minimal to full white markings on their brisket and most of the time on paw or paws. The light gun-metal gray to almost black Lacy’s are classified in color as blue. The red, yellow to cream Lacy’s are classified in color as red. The tri-colored Lacy’s are blue with red markings over their eyes, on muzzle, under tail, and down the legs. They are classified in color as tri. Both the red and tri-colored Lacy’s hold the name Blue Lacy due to the blue-color gene they possess. All Blue Lacy’s eyes are very bright and distinctive orange to yellow in color. Which adds a unique touch to their appearance.** **Temperament** **Lacy’s are easy to handle, spectacular workers and pets that are great with children. This breed is very sensitive to yelling. It responds better to stern or soft commands. They are energetic and dedicated dogs, capable of handling the meanest longhorn cattle or most jittery of hens, taking the job instinctively, requiring no training. They are known to replace the work of a cowboy by five times. This breed is also used for hog hunting, finding wounded deer, and treeing game. Suitable for a watch dog and both herding and droving tasks.** **Height, Weight** **Height: 18-25 inches (46-64 cm.) Weight: 25-50 pounds (11-23 kg.)** **Health Problems** **None reported at this time. No hip problems and etc…** **Living Conditions** **They adapt well to any type of living conditions. They make good house dogs, but also love being out door dogs as well. Easy to train for house or outside.** **Exercise** **The Lacy needs lots of attention and exercise, as most of your working breeds do. They do not get hyper if they are not worked, but we suggest it because they were breed to be a working dog and we would like to see the dogs remain in the ranch and hunting industries to save the breed for the future.** **Life Expectancy** **About 16 years. There are 16 year old Lacy still working cattle and hunting.** **Grooming** **Short hair. Low maintenance.** **Origin** **Having nothing to do with the characteristics the dogs have, the name is that of the Lacy Family. Arriving from Kentucky by covered wagon in 1858 the “Lacy Brothers” (Frank, George, Ewin, and Harry Lacy) settled in the granite hills near Marble Falls, Texas. As true a pioneer as the men you see in history books, the Blue Lacy Game Dog has filled the needs of Colonial Americans for well over a century on ranches in the Southwestern US. When the three-wheeled horse hit the trail it brought this unique breed unsuccessfully close to extinction. While the need for its instinctive herding abilities were diminishing the need for its abilities to bay the fiercest of hog, pick up the trail of any game animal or find a wounded animal on the slightest of blood trails was on the rise in the commercial hunting industry. They are now the most common breed used by the United States Trappers. Blue Lacy owner’s claim they are the perfect all-around dog, knowing where to be at just the right time. The Lacy family history notes the breed to be the result of Greyhound/ scent hound/ coyote cross with the emphasis on the herding/ droving characteristics. Many people have their theory on the scent hound used. Some believe it was a Red Bone Hound, or Italian Gray Hound, others believe it was a July Hound. What ever the Hound in the combination is the cross worked. The Lacy brothers established this breed under the guidelines it takes to develop a recognized breed.** **Group** **Herding** **Development** **The Lacy family history notes the breed to be the result of Greyhound/Scent hound/coyote cross with the emphasis on the herding/droving characteristics.

Blue Lacy’s know where to be at just the right time, driving into task with out the hesitation of fear. That was very important to the needs of Colonial Americans in the 1800’s. Especially for my great great, grandfather Frank Lacy and his brothers George, Edwin and Harry who raised several hundred head of cattle and hogs, with no help from modern age farm equipment. The four brothers didn’t just need help with rounding and driving livestock, but also with hunting food and hides for their families. Their dogs were said to replace the work of a cowboy by five times during the day, and the rest of the time they would tree coon’s, hunt wild hogs and find wounded deer on the slightest of blood trail. The “Lacy Brothers” arrived by covered wagon in 1858 to the granite hills near Marble Falls, Texas from Christian Count, Kentucky. They originated the breed shortly after they settled in Texas. The brothers made sure that every dog they bred were quality working Lacy’s. They took the same pride in breeding their dogs as they did with breeding their livestock. Frank, George, Edwin and Harry were not just occupied with livestock and dogs. These men were soldiers in the Confederate Army and had many other accomplishments in their country and community. There is a write up at the capital of Texas, in Austin about George Lacy. It states how he both granite hill, known to be Granite Mountain now, and donated all the needed granite to build the capita. The capital has been built out of wood in previous times and there had been problems with it burning down. The state gave him and apartment in the capital for the generous donation. He later donated it to the Daughters of the Republic and now is the home of the Lieutenant Governor, according to Granville Lacy (George Lacy’s grandson). Granville shared with my husband and I what made these dogs different from other herding dogs. He talked about other dogs and how they work the back end of the animal, but a Lacy works the nose. They lead the animals not push it. We had an opportunity to witness this for ourselves. We use our Blue Lacy’s for finding wounded deer and treeing coons and had not witnessed these dogs on cattle. It was extremely fascinating to see the Blue Lacy dogs keep the cattle in such control. The Trappers I have talked to say they do the same with wild hogs. It is truly a sight to see! Clyde Lacy (cousin to Granville) passed down a story about his grandpa Lacy and his Blue Lacy dogs. He recalled that they would have approximately 300 hogs held up on Granite Mountain. When it was time for the hogs to be penned, Grandpa Lacy would open the gates and give the dogs the signal to round them up and put them in the pens. With out aid of the cowboys the Blue Lacy’s would bring back the herd in roughly 3 hours and have them in the pen. These incredible instincts are what made them known back in the time of the Lacy brothers and spread them through out the counties. They are as true a Texas pioneer as the men you see in history books. When the three-wheeled horse hit the trail, it brought this unique breed unsuccessfully close to extinction. While the need for its instinctive herding abilities were diminishing the need for its abilities to bay the fiercest of hog, pick up the trial of any game animal or find wounded animals was on the rise in the commercial hunting industry. They are now the most common breeds used by the United States Trappers. The Lacy Game Dog Registry is working to increase the number of Blue Lacy’s back to what it once was. My family history suggested that Blue Lacy’s are the result of Greyhound/ sent hound/ coyote cross with the emphasis on the herding/ droving characteristics. They have been categorized with the Cur breeds and listed in the herding group. Like in every breed of dogs, the different combination of dogs used to develop one breed is theory, and may people have their opinions. The only proven fact is, all dogs are descendants of the coyote, dingo, fox, jackal or wolf. Looking up dogs in any encyclopedia can support this fact. If you are wondering, what do these dogs look like? I was just getting to that! A pure Blue Lacy is 25-50 lbs. And approximately 18-25 inches in height. Their coats are smooth, short, and tight and exceptionally clean in appearance. The light gun-metal gray to almost black Lacy’s are classified as blue in color. Red, yellow to cream Lacy’s are classified as red in color. Finally, yet importantly you have Tri-colored Lacy’s. They have a combination of Blue and red markings. All pure Blue Lacy’s have minimal to full white markings on their brisket. White is also common on a paw or paws. All three of the different classified colored dogs are still called Blue Lacy’s. Both the red and tri-colored Lacy’s hold the name due to the blue-color gene they possess and produce. Their eyes are very bright and distinctive orange to amber in color. Which adds an unique touch to their appearance. The Lacy Game Dog Registry is in the process of tracking down all pure blood Lacy’s in the United States. We have found that the numbers of Blue Lacy’s are greatly declining. In an effort to save the breed, we are trying to reach all owners of such dogs. Current owners provide up-dated information, background and other vital clues to save the breed. Any names or contacts you might have would be greatly appreciated.

There is a rule in question that is being abused. The rule is under III. Scoring of Plus Points: G) Handler can tree their own dog at their owner discretion. This does not mean you do not have to call your dog tree or you can hold your dog back to keep it from becoming a champion. Once you determine your dog is on a tree, it is the responsibility of the hunter to call the dog treed; not wait until other dogs get there so your dog will not have a 1st tree or be a cast winner. The Squirrel Dog of the Year Program is not a contest you have to pay extra to be involved in. The National Kennel Club awards these points based on how your dog places in a hunt. We reserve the right to disqualify any dog from the Squirrel Dog of the Year race if we deem cheating has occurred.

questionable practice at some of our hunts. There is a rule in question that is being abused. The rule is under III. Scoring of Plus Points: G) Handler can tree their own dog at their owner discretion. This does not mean you do not have to call your dog tree or you can hold your dog back to keep it from becoming a champion. Once you determine your dog is on a tree, it is the responsibility of the hunter to call the dog treed; not wait until other dogs get there so your dog will not have a 1st tree or be a cast winner. The Squirrel Dog of the Year Program is not a contest you have to pay extra to be involved in. The National Kennel Club awards these points based on how your dog places in a hunt. We reserve the right to disqualify any dog from the Squirrel Dog of the Year race if we deem cheating has occurred.

The Boykin Spaniel is medium in size, with emphasis placed on his hunting abilities, characterized by flushing and retrieving, with moderate speed and agility. With his pendulous ears, soft gentle expression, sturdily build and friendly wagging tail proclaim him unmistakably part of the ancient family of spaniels. Characteristics: The typical Boykin is friendly and eager to please, intelligent and easy to train. The Boykin Spaniel thriv3es on human companionship and gets along well with other dogs and children. He shows great eagerness and energy for hunt yet controllable in the field. Faults: Hostility towards other dogs or people in normal situations or excessive timidity or hyperactivity is not in keeping with the Boykin’s character. Size, Proportion, Substance: The Boykin Spaniel is built to cover rough ground in all conditions with agility and reasonable speed. His appearance should be a sturdy dog with good but not too heavy bone. He should be kept to a medium size – neither too small or too large and heavy to do the work for which he is intended. Solidly built, with moderate bone, smooth firm muscles. A well balanced dog somewhat longer than tall. The ration of length to height is approximately 7.6 (Length is measured on a level, from the foremost part of the shoulders to the rearmost point of the buttocks). The ideal height for dogs is 15 ½ – 18 inches at the withers; bitches 14 – 16 ½ inches at the withers. The ideal weight dogs 30 – 40 lbs. bitches 25 – 35 lbs. Faults: Over heavy, large boned specimens. Leggy individuals too tall for their length and substance. Head: The head must be in proportion with the size of the dog. Expression is alert, self-confident, attractive and intelligent. Eyes are yellow to brown to harmonize with the coat, set well apart, alert expression, intelligent and trusting. Should not be protruding or bulging. Darker shades of yellow preferred over lighter shades. Ears set slightly above or even with the eye line. The leather of the ear must reach the tip of the nose when pulled forward. They lie flat and close to the head. Skull is medium length fairly broad, flat on top, slightly rounded at the sides and back. The occiput bone is inconspicuous. Moderate stop. When viewed from the side the nasal bone and the top of the skull form two parallel lines. Muzzle to be approximately the same length as the skull, viewed from the top the width of the muzzle is approximately ½ the width of the skull. The distance from the tip of the nose to the base of the skull is about the same length as the neck. The jaws are sufficient length to allow the dog to easily carry game. Nose is to be dark liver in color with well opened nostrils. Lips are close fitting and clean, sufficiently to cover the lower jaw, not snippy or exaggerated. Bite scissors or level but scissors is preferred. Faults: Over or undershot. Neck, Topline, Body: Neck is moderately long, muscular, slightly arched at the crest and gradually blends into sloping shoulders without being abruptly angled or excessively throaty. Topline is straight, strong and well muscled, with no tendency to dip or each. Loin is short, strong and deep with slight tuck up. Body is sturdily constructed but not to compact. Sloping shoulders, chest well developed but not barreled, back is strong, straight, and level. Tail is docked so at maturity it is 2 ½ – 3 inches long. It is set on the body level or slightly below the croup to follow the natural line. Carriage should be nearly or slightly raised when dog is in movement. Faults: Gay tail or carried in a downward direction when in movement. Forequarters: Shoulders sloping, clean and muscular. Legs medium in length, straight and well boned but not too short as to handicap for field work or so heavy as to appear clumsy. Pasterns strong with no suggestions of weakness. Toes closely grouped, webbed and well padded. Size of feet harmonizes with dog. Dewclaws should be removed. Hindquarters: Well developed hips and thighs with the whole rear assembly showing strength and drive. The hock joint slightly rounded, should not be small or sharp in contour, moderately angulated. Legs from hock joint to foot pad moderate in length, strong and straight with good bone structure. Hocks Parallel. Faults: Cow hocked, pasterns close, paddle or fiddle feet. Coat: Coat is flat to moderately wavy with medium length, fine hair with light feathering acceptable on legs, chest, ears, buttocks and belly. Coat may be trimmed to have well groomed appearance.

Allowing for a small white spot on chest. No other white markings are allowed. Gait: The Boykin Spaniel moves freely with good reach from well laid back shoulders at an angle that permits a long stride and the rear quarters are just as essential to provide the driving power. It should move smooth and effortlessly. Viewed from the rear the hocks should drive well under the body following on a line with the forelegs neither too widely nor too closely spaced. As speed increases it is natural for the legs to fall to a center line of travel. Seen from the side should exhibit a good, long forward stride, without high stepping or wasted motion. To be penalized: Short choppy stride. Moving with forefeet wide giving roll or swinging to body. Weaving or crossing feet. ![Boykin Spaniel](https://b2729410.assetcdn.net/2729410/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/iStock-514726067r.jpg?lossy=1&strip=0&webp=1) --- ### [Boxer](https://nationalkennelclub.com/boxer/) **Published:** February 16, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** # Boxer ## Breed Standards for the Boxer General Appearance: It is square-proportioned with good substance and musculature Head: Broad, blunt muzzle; Undershot bite; Shallow wrinkles on forehead when alert; Slightly arched skull; Ears cropped long and tapering Tail: Set high, docked and carried upward Color: Fawn and brindle, both with or without white flashing and black mask Size: Weight: male: 65-80 lb; female: 50 – 65 lb Height: male: 22.5 – 25”; female: 21 – 23.5” Gait: Free and ground covering, with proud carriage Temperament: Playful, exuberant, inquisitive, attentive, demonstrative, devoted and outgoing ![Boxer](https://b2729410.assetcdn.net/2729410/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/iStock-1257560195r.jpg?lossy=1&strip=0&webp=1) --- ### [Bouvier des Flandres](https://nationalkennelclub.com/bouvier-des-flandres/) **Published:** February 20, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** # Bouvier des Flandres ## Breed Standards for the Bouvier des Flandres General Appearance: A compact, short-coupled dog, of square proportion and rugged appearance Head: Thick beard, mustache, and eyebrows; Oval eyes; Flat skull; High-set, rough-coated ears; if cropped, triangular Tail: Tail docked to two or three vertebrae, carried upright when in motion Color: From fawn to black, including salt and pepper, gray and brindle Gait: Free, bold and proud Coat: Tousled and double, with a fine undercoat and a harsh, dry outer coat Size: Weight: 69-90 lb; Height: male: 24.5 – 27.5”; female: 23.5-26.” Temperance: Steady, stalwart companion that is loyal, devoted fearless and protective ![Bouvier des Flandres](https://b2729410.assetcdn.net/2729410/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/iStock-160051479r.jpg?lossy=1&strip=0&webp=1) --- ### [Boston Terrier](https://nationalkennelclub.com/boston-terrier/) **Published:** February 17, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** # Boston Terrier ## Breed Standards for the Boston Terrier General Appearance: A compactly built, square-proportioned, short-backed, clean-cut dog.

It’s most important that the smalls retain their hunting instinct and that the larger sizes be easily spannable by average sized hands in fitting with the breed description. General Appearance The Hunt Terrier is a bold, friendly, active and alert. The length of back from withers to tail is slightly longer than the dog’s height at the withers. The depth of brisket at the point of the elbow should be one half the total height of the dog. The body is capable of being spanned by an average man’s hands when placed behind the front legs. The head is moderately broad, with a flat skull, a defined stop, and a powerful jaw. Ears are button or drop, and very mobile. The tail is set high and to be docked to equal the height of the head or be natural. The skin is thick and the coat is dense. The Hunt Terrier should be evaluated as a working terrier, and exaggerations or faults should be penalized in proportion to how much they interfere with the dog’s ability to work. Scars should not be penalized. Characteristics The Hunt Terrier is a small, agile, active hunting terrier, ready to defend your farm from invasion of rodents and varmints. This breed is fearless and requires little encouragement to go to ground. Faults: Cowardice should be avoided and aggression should be used only on quarry. Head The head is proportionate to the size of the body. The skull should be flat, of moderate width at the ears, narrowing to the eyes. There should be a defined stop but not over pronounced. The length of the muzzle from the nose to the stop may be slightly shorter than from the stop to the rear of the skull. Serious Faults: Apple or domed skull.

Body A properly proportioned Hunt Terrier is slightly longer than tall. The length of back from withers to tail is slightly longer than the height at the withers. The Hunt Terrier is perfectly designed to go to ground. The depth of brisket at the point of the elbow, is exactly half the height of the dog at the withers.

Viewed from any position, legs turn neither in nor out, nor do feet cross or interfere with each other. As speed increases, feet tend to converge toward centerline.

It is large and broad, giving the impression of great power, but it is not disproportionate to the size of the body. Viewed from the front, the head is shaped like a broad, blunt wedge. When viewed from the side, the skull and muzzle are parallel to one another and joined by a well defined, moderately deep stop. Arches over the eyes are well defined but not pronounced. The head is well chiseled, blending strength, elegance, and character. SKULL – The skull is large, flat or slightly rounded, deep, and broad between the ears. Viewed from the top, the skull tapers just slightly toward the stop. There is a deep median furrow that diminishes in depth from the stop to the occiput. Cheek muscles are prominent but free of wrinkles. When the dog is concentrating, wrinkles form on the forehead, which give the APBT his unique expression. MUZZLE – The muzzle is broad and deep with a very slight taper from the stop to the nose, and a slight falling away under the eyes. The length of muzzle is shorter than the length of skull, with a ratio of approximately 2:3. The topline of the muzzle is straight. The lower jaw is well developed, wide and deep. Lips are clean and tight. Faults: Snipey muzzle; flews; weak lower jaw. TEETH – The American Pit Bull Terrier has a complete set of evenly spaced, white tee. meeting in a scissors bite. Fault: Level bite. Serious Faults: Overshot bite; wry mouth; missing teeth (this does not apply to teeth that have been lost or removed by a veterinarian). NOSE – The nose is large with wide, open nostrils. The nose may be any color. EYES – Eyes are medium size, round to almond-shaped, and set well apart and low on the skull. All colors are equally acceptable except blue, which is a serious fault. Haw should. not be visible. Serious Faults: Bulging eyes; both eyes not matched in color; blue eyes. EARS – Ears are high set and may be natural or cropped without preference. If natural, semi-prick or rose are preferred. Prick or flat, wide ears are not desired. Neck The neck is of moderate length and muscular. There is a slight arch at the crest. The neck widens gradually from where it joins the skull to where it blends into well laid-back shoulders. The skin on the neck is tight and without dewlap. Faults: Neck too short and thick, thin or weak neck, ewe neck, or dewlap. Forequarters The shoulder blades are long, wide, muscular, and well laid back. The upper arm is roughly equal in length to the shoulder blade and joins it at an apparent right angle. The forelegs are strong and muscular. The elbows are set close to the body. Viewed from the front, the forelegs are set moderately wide apart and perpendicular to the ground. The pasterns are short, powerful, straight, and flexible. When viewed in profile, the pasterns are nearly erect. Faults: Upright or loaded shoulders; elbows turned outward or tied-in; down at the pasterns; front legs bowed; wrists knuckled over; toeing in or out. The chest is deep, well filled in, and moderately wide with ample room for heart and lungs, but the chest should never be wider than it is deep. The forechest does not extend much beyond the point of shoulder. The ribs extend well back and are well sprung from the spine, then flattening to form a deep body extending to the elbows. The back is strong and firm. The topline inclines very slightly downward from the withers to a broad, muscular, level back. The loin is short, muscular and slightly arched to the top of the croup, but narrower than the rib cage and with a moderate tuck-up. The croup is slightly sloping downward. Hindquarters The hindquarters are strong, muscular, and moderately broad. The rump is well filled in on each side of the tail and deep from the pelvis to the crotch. The bone, angulation, and musculature of the hindquarters are in balance with the forequarters. The thighs are well developed with thick, easily discerned muscles. Viewed from the side, the hock joint is well bent and the rear pasterns are well let down and perpendicular to the ground. Viewed from the rear, the rear pasterns are straight and parallel to one another. Faults: Narrow hindquarters; hindquarters shallow from pelvis to crotch; lack of muscle; straight or over angulated stifle joint; cow hocks; sickle hocks; bowed legs. Feet The feet are round, proportionate to the size of the dog, well arched, and tight. Pads are hard, tough, and well cushioned. Dewclaws may be removed. Fault: Splayed feet. Tail The tail is set on as a natural extension of the topline, and tapers to a point. When the dog is relaxed, the tail is carried low and extends approximately to the hock. When the dog is excited, the tail may be carried in a raised, upright position (challenge tail), but never curled over the back (gay tail). Fault: Long tail (tail tip passes beyond point of hock). Serious faults: Gay tail (not to be confused with challenge tail); kinked tail. Disqualification: Bobbed tail Coat The coat is glossy and smooth, close, and moderately stiff to the touch. Faults: Curly, wavy, or sparse coat. Disqualification: Long coat. Color Most color, color pattern, or combination of colors are acceptable. Disqualifications: gray, merle or any shade blue. Height and Weight The American Pit Bull Terrier must be both powerful and agile so actual weight and height are less important than the correct proportion of weight to height. Desirable weight for a mature male in good condition is between 30 and 60 pounds. Desirable weight for a mature female in good condition is between 25 and 50 pounds. Lets not forget, these are Terriers. Gait The American Pit Bull Terrier moves with a jaunty, confident attitude, conveying the impression that he expects any minute to see something new and exciting. When trotting, the gait is effortless, smooth, powerful, and well coordinated, showing good reach in front and drive behind. When moving, the backline remains level with only a slight flexing to indicate suppleness. Viewed from any position, legs turn neither in nor out, nor do feet cross or interfere with each other. As speed increases, feet tend to converge toward center line of balance. Faults: Legs not moving on the same plane; legs over reaching; legs crossing over in front or rear; rear legs moving too close or touching; rolling; pacing; paddling; sidewinding; hackney action; pounding. Disqualifications Unilateral or bilateral cryptorchid. Viciousness or extreme shyness. Unilateral or bilateral deafness. Bobbed tail. Albinism.

It is large and broad, giving the impression of great power, but it is not disproportionate to the size of the body. Viewed from the front, the head is shaped like a broad, blunt wedge. When viewed from the side, the skull and muzzle are parallel to one another and joined by a well defined, moderately deep stop. Arches over the eyes are well defined but not pronounced. The head is well chiseled, blending strength, elegance, and character. SKULL The skull is large, flat or slightly rounded, deep, and broad between the ears. Viewed from the top, the skull tapers just slightly toward the stop. There is a deep median furrow that diminishes in depth from the stop to the occiput. Cheek muscles are prominent but free of wrinkles. When the dog is concentrating, wrinkles form on the forehead, which give the APBT his unique expression. MUZZLE The muzzle is broad and deep with a very slight taper from the stop to the nose, and a slight falling away under the eyes. The length of muzzle is shorter than the length of skull, with a ratio of approximately 2:3. The topline of the muzzle is straight. The lower jaw is well developed, wide and deep. Lips are clean and tight. Faults: Snipey muzzle; flews; weak lower jaw. TEETH The American Pit Bull Terrier has a complete set of evenly spaced, white tee. meeting in a scissors bite. Fault: Level bite. Serious Faults: Overshot bite; wry mouth; missing teeth (this does not apply to teeth that have been lost or removed by a veterinarian). NOSE The nose is large with wide, open nostrils. The nose may be any color. EYES Eyes are medium size, round to almond-shaped, and set well apart and low on the skull. All colors are equally acceptable except blue, which is a serious fault. Haw should. not be visible. Serious Faults: Bulging eyes; both eyes not matched in color; blue eyes. EARS Ears are high set and may be natural or cropped without preference. If natural, semi-prick or rose are preferred. Prick or flat, wide ears are not desired. Neck The neck is of moderate length and muscular. There is a slight arch at the crest. The neck widens gradually from where it joins the skull to where it blends into well laid-back shoulders. The skin on the neck is tight and without dewlap. Faults: Neck too short and thick, thin or weak neck, ewe neck, or dewlap. Forequarters The shoulder blades are long, wide, muscular, and well laid back. The upper arm is roughly equal in length to the shoulder blade and joins it at an apparent right angle. The forelegs are strong and muscular. The elbows are set close to the body. Viewed from the front, the forelegs are set moderately wide apart and perpendicular to the ground. The pasterns are short, powerful, straight, and flexible. When viewed in profile, the pasterns are nearly erect. Faults: Upright or loaded shoulders; elbows turned outward or tied-in; down at the pasterns; front legs bowed; wrists knuckled over; toeing in or out. Chest The chest is deep, well filled in, and moderately wide with ample room for heart and lungs, but the chest should never be wider than it is deep. The forechest does not extend much beyond the point of shoulder. The ribs extend well back and are well sprung from the spine, then flattening to form a deep body extending to the elbows. The back is strong and firm. The topline inclines very slightly downward from the withers to a broad, muscular, level back. The loin is short, muscular and slightly arched to the top of the croup, but narrower than the rib cage and with a moderate tuck-up. The croup is slightly sloping downward. Hindquarters The hindquarters are strong, muscular, and moderately broad. The rump is well filled in on each side of the tail and deep from the pelvis to the crotch. The bone, angulation, and musculature of the hindquarters are in balance with the forequarters. The thighs are well developed with thick, easily discerned muscles. Viewed from the side, the hock joint is well bent and the rear pasterns are well let down and perpendicular to the ground. Viewed from the rear, the rear pasterns are straight and parallel to one another. Faults: Narrow hindquarters; hindquarters shallow from pelvis to crotch; lack of muscle; straight or over angulated stifle joint; cow hocks; sickle hocks; bowed legs. Feet The feet are round, proportionate to the size of the dog, well arched, and tight. Pads are hard, tough, and well cushioned. Dewclaws may be removed. Fault: Splayed feet. Tail The tail is set on as a natural extension of the topline, and tapers to a point. When the dog is relaxed, the tail is carried low and extends approximately to the hock. When the dog is excited, the tail may be carried in a raised, upright position (challenge tail), but never curled over the back (gay tail). Fault: Long tail (tail tip passes beyond point of hock). Serious faults: Gay tail (not to be confused with challenge tail); kinked tail. Disqualification: Bobbed tail Coat The coat is glossy and smooth, close, and moderately stiff to the touch. Faults: Curly, wavy, or sparse coat. Disqualification: Long coat. Color Most color, color pattern, or combination of colors are acceptable. Disqualifications: gray, merle or any shad blue. Height and Weight The American Pit Bull Terrier must be both powerful and agile so actual weight and height are less important than the correct proportion of weight to height. Desirable weight for a mature male in good condition is between 30 and 60 pounds. Desirable weight for a mature female in good condition is between 25 and 50 pounds. Lets not forget, these are Terriers. Gait The American Pit Bull Terrier moves with a jaunty, confident attitude, conveying the impression that he expects any minute to see something new and exciting. When trotting, the gait is effortless, smooth, powerful, and well coordinated, showing good reach in front and drive behind. When moving, the backline remains level with only a slight flexing to indicate suppleness. Viewed from any position, legs turn neither in nor out, nor do feet cross or interfere with each other. As speed increases, feet tend to converge toward center line of balance. Faults: Legs not moving on the same plane; legs over reaching; legs crossing over in front or rear; rear legs moving too close or touching; rolling; pacing; paddling; sidewinding; hackney action; pounding. Disqualifications: Unilateral or bilateral cryptorchid, Viciousness or extreme shyness, Unilateral or bilateral deafness, Bobbed tail, Albinism. ![](https://b2729410.assetcdn.net/2729410/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/iStock-149861015.jpg?lossy=1&strip=0&webp=1 "American Pit Bull Terrier standing") ![](data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg== "American Pit Bull Terrier") --- ### [American Hairless Terrier](https://nationalkennelclub.com/american-hairless-terrier/) **Published:** February 17, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** # American Hairless Terrier ## Breed Standards for the American Hairless Terrier General Appearance: The American Hairless Terrier is a smoothly muscled, active, small-to-medium terrier.

This does not mean you do not have to call your dog tree or you can hold your dog back to keep it from becoming a champion. Once you determine your dog is on a tree, it is the responsibility of the hunter to call the dog treed; not wait until other dogs get there so your dog will not have a 1st tree or be a cast winner. The Squirrel Dog of the Year Program is not a contest you have to pay extra to be involved in. The National Kennel Club awards these points based on how your dog places in a hunt. We reserve the right to disqualify any dog from the Squirrel Dog of the Year race if we deem cheating has occurred. If an owner has a dog(s) disqualified for cheating, we will also disqualify all dogs owned by this owner.

American Bulldog dog has made Junior Champion it is no longer eligible to compete in NKC sanctioned Shows until it turns 1 year old. You can not continue to show your dog in an attempt to earn more Dog of the Year points. If an owner knowingly enters his/her dog in order to try and earn DOY points, the dog will be disqualified from the American Dog of the year race.

Year](https://nationalkennelclub.com/2019-nkc-squirrel-dog-of-the-year/) **Published:** February 16, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** For the past couple of years there have been questionable practice at some of our hunts. There is a rule in question that is being abused. The rule is under III. Scoring of Plus Points: G) Handler can tree their own dog at their owner discretion. This does not mean you do not have to call your dog tree or you can hold your dog back to keep it from becoming a champion. Once you determine your dog is on a tree, it is the responsibility of the hunter to call the dog treed; not wait until other dogs get there so your dog will not have a 1st tree or be a cast winner. The Squirrel Dog of the Year Program is not a contest you have to pay extra to be involved in. The National Kennel Club awards these points based on how your dog places in a hunt. We reserve the right to disqualify any dog from the Squirrel Dog of the Year race if we deem cheating has occurred. If an owner has a dog(s) disqualified for cheating, we will also disqualify all dogs owned by this owner. We will not tolerate individual(s) trying to abuse the system. 2019 Squirrel Dog of the Year Final Count Dog NameOwnerPointsROCKY TOP RIOO’DELLEDDIE161ROGERS’ CISCOROGERSEDWARD133BAILIFF’S TENNESSEE

Year](https://nationalkennelclub.com/2016-nkc-squirrel-dog-of-the-year/) **Published:** February 16, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** For the past couple of years there have been questionable practice at some of our hunts. There is a rule in question that is being abused. The rule is under III. Scoring of Plus Points: G) Handler can tree their own dog at their owner discretion. This does not mean you do not have to call your dog tree or you can hold your dog back to keep it from becoming a champion. Once you determine your dog is on a tree, it is the responsibility of the hunter to call the dog treed; not wait until other dogs get there so your dog will not have a 1st tree or be a cast winner. The Squirrel Dog of the Year Program is not a contest you have to pay extra to be involved in. The National Kennel Club awards these points based on how your dog places in a hunt. We reserve the right to disqualify any dog from the Squirrel Dog of the Year race if we deem cheating has occurred. If an owner has a dog(s) disqualified for cheating, we will also disqualify all dogs owned by this owner. We will not tolerate individual(s) trying to abuse the system.

For the past couple of years there have been questionable practice at some of our hunts. There is a rule in question that is being abused. The rule is under III. Scoring of Plus Points: G) Handler can tree their own dog at their owner discretion. This does not mean you do not have to call your dog tree or you can hold your dog back to keep it from becoming a champion. Once you determine your dog is on a tree, it is the responsibility of the hunter to call the dog treed; not wait until other dogs get there so your dog will not have a 1st tree or be a cast winner. The Squirrel Dog of the Year Program is not a contest you have to pay extra to be involved in. The National Kennel Club awards these points based on how your dog places in a hunt. We reserve the right to disqualify any dog from the Squirrel Dog of the Year race if we deem cheating has occurred. If an owner has a dog(s) disqualified for cheating, we will also disqualify all dogs owned by this owner. We will not tolerate individual(s) trying to abuse the system. 2015 Squirrel Dog of the Year Dog NameOwnerPointsLUBBER’S ROPERRANDYLUBBERS178MELTON’S 2 TALL BLACKJACKHENRYMELTON161TERRELL’S TREEING GRACELUKETERRELL133D.S.

Year](https://nationalkennelclub.com/2014_nkc_squirrel_dog_of_the_year/) **Published:** February 16, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** For the past couple of years there have been questionable practice at some of our hunts. There is a rule in question that is being abused. The rule is under III. Scoring of Plus Points: G) Handler can tree their own dog at their owner discretion. This does not mean you do not have to call your dog tree or you can hold your dog back to keep it from becoming a champion. Once you determine your dog is on a tree, it is the responsibility of the hunter to call the dog treed; not wait until other dogs get there so your dog will not have a 1st tree or be a cast winner. The Squirrel Dog of the Year Program is not a contest you have to pay extra to be involved in. The National Kennel Club awards these points based on how your dog places in a hunt. We reserve the right to disqualify any dog from the Squirrel Dog of the Year race if we deem cheating has occurred. If an owner has a dog(s) disqualified for cheating, we will also disqualify all dogs owned by this owner. We will not tolerate individual(s) trying to abuse the system. **Congratulations to the** **2014 NKC Squirrel Dog of the Year Winners** 2014 NKC Squirrel Dog of the Year Winner Scout Sniper Jim Barnes

**Published:** April 18, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** For the past couple of years there have been questionable practice at some of our hunts. There is a rule in question that is being abused. The rule is under III. Scoring of Plus Points: G) Handler can tree their own dog at their owner discretion. This does not mean you do not have to call your dog tree or you can hold your dog back to keep it from becoming a champion. Once you determine your dog is on a tree, it is the responsibility of the hunter to call the dog treed; not wait until other dogs get there so your dog will not have a 1st tree or be a cast winner. The Squirrel Dog of the Year Program is not a contest you have to pay extra to be involved in. The National Kennel Club awards these points based on how your dog places in a hunt. We reserve the right to disqualify any dog from the Squirrel Dog of the Year race if we deem cheating has occurred. If an owner has a dog(s) disqualified for cheating, we will also disqualify all dogs owned by this owner. We will not tolerate individual(s) trying to abuse the system. updated 1-8-13 Dog NameOwnerPointsREYNOLDS’ RONDOEARLREYNOLDS147SPORTBRED SUPER SPORTMITCHEALHENDERSON119DUKE’S TOBYJERRYSHAFER91SNIPER’S

**Published:** February 16, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** For the 2011 Dog of the year program there is going to be some changes made in how points are awarded. In the past, 5 points were awarded to the Champion, Grand Champion and Super Grand Champion. Starting effective 1-1-11 7 points will be awarded to the Champion, Grand Champion and Super Grand Champion Classes. All points for these classes have been updated retroactive to any hunts dated 1-11-11 to current. For the past couple of years there have been questionable practice at some of our hunts. There is a rule in question that is being abused. The rule is under III. Scoring of Plus Points: G) Handler can tree their own dog at their owner discretion. This does not mean you do not have to call your dog tree or you can hold your dog back to keep it from becoming a champion. Once you determine your dog is on a tree, it is the responsibility of the hunter to call the dog treed; not wait until other dogs get there so your dog will not have a 1st tree or be a cast winner. The Squirrel Dog of the Year Program is not a contest you have to pay extra to be involved in. The National Kennel Club awards these points based on how your dog places in a hunt. We reserve the right to disqualify any dog from the Squirrel Dog of the Year race if we deem cheating has occurred. If an owner has a dog(s) disqualified for cheating, we will also disqualify all dogs owned by this owner. We will not tolerate individual(s) trying to abuse the system. updated 11-9-11 Dog NameOwnerPointsL & K’S CUT ACROSS SHORTYSTANSCHILLING119BIG MUDDY RUSTY WHEELSDANELLIS111ELLIS’ BIG MUDDY WHO SHOT SAMDAVIDELLIS107HARRIS’ THUNDER BUZZJASONHARRIS100WILLIAMS’ PEANUTGREGWILLIAMS73TEXAS TATER BUGJOHNNYMCNEELY58TREESWITCH CRUNCHTYLERBURTON54ARMSTRONG’S SWIPERCHARLESARMSTRONG49BROWN’S JETJAMESBROWN49GREY’S SPOTTED CADILLACSTEVEGREY49MCANDREWS’ SMARTYSTEVEMCANDREWS49MO TIGERBENNYSCARBERRY45LOST BOTTOM’S CHOMPBOBBYWALKER JR44KEITH’S ROSSIE GIRLTEDKEITH42STUART’S HARDWOOD JILLJOHNSTUART42WOLFE’S FLASHGEORGENEAL40BAKER’S BLACK CREEK JONESYSTEVEBAKER39RIVER RUN LITTLE REDDAVIDYOUNG39BRUMBELOW’S BRUZERTHOMASBRUMBELOW38HENDERSON’S JACKTEDHENDERSON38ACE’S PEPPERACALLOACHRIDGE36POOR FORK SADIEEDWILDER36D & L’S BIG CREEK KATIELANE & DEWAINWELLEN35HAMILTON’S TINYGLENNHAMILTON35KEITH’S BLACKIE BOYTEDKEITH35LOST BOTTOM’S BUCKEYEGARYMITCHELL35POSEY HOLLOW SOXJESSEBASS35STUART’S HARDWOOD HOPEJOHNSTUART35TREE JAMMIN JOEGREGORYFORD35UPHILL JILLTONYMOGAN35WARREN’S OZARK PEPPERBILLWARREN35WELLS’ HICKORY NUT HANKJIMMYWELLS35BOWLING’S BIT OF HONEYKEITHBOWLING34BUSBY’S SPORTCHRISBUSBY34HONEY CREEK LEWEYCRAIGWILLIAMS34INABNITT’S PEGGY SUEJASONINABNITT34BOURBON’S LILLYLARRYBOURBON33DURBIN’S BANDITTYDURBIN33INDIANA SHEBAL BCHAPMAN33BLACKWOOD’S S.O.B.

Ribbons, Trophies or other awards will be awarded. **Titles & Championship Degree Policy** - All Championship point disputes must be reported to NKC no later than six (6) months after the event date. - The title or Championship degree will be sent to the registered owner when the dog fulfills the requirements for a Champion, Grand Champion. You will know once you receive the title or degree that our records will also credit this title or degree on your dog’s records. This means any offspring out of this dog will have this new title or degree on their records. If you as the registered owner want to update your registration papers to include the new titles/awards, you may do so by returning your old papers with a request for updated papers and the proper fee. This is not required, only an option if you want your dogs titles to be displayed on the registration papers. - If a dog earns the need points and major win requirements according to the owners records to be moved up to the next level of competition (Champion, Grand Champion and Super Grand Champion) it may do so a the following show. This is contingent on the condition that the records kept by the dog’s owners are in accordance with those kept by NKC. Neither NKC nor the host clubs are responsible for any mistakes made by the owners of these dogs concerning the dog’s points. If it is found that the owner’s records were in error, and the dog had not fulfilled the requirements for a Championship title, all points attained by that dog in the higher level will be considered void. - Once a dog has been shown at the higher level, it may not move back to the lower level unless the owner is notified by NKC that the dog did not fulfill the requirements for the necessary title to move up. - If the NKC has notified the owner that his dog has completed its Champion title, it may no longer compete in the Puppy, Junior, Senior, or Veteran class. The dog must move up to the Champion of Champions class. If the NKC has notified the owner that his dog has completed its Grand Champion title, it may no longer compete in the Champion of Champions class. The dog must move up to the Grand Champion class. If the NKC has notified the owner that his dog has completed its Super Grand Champion title, it may no longer compete in the Grand Champion of Champions class.

Bring back every best of breed females to be shown against each other for the overall Best of Show female an additional 10 points. Bring back every best of breed males to be shown against each other for the overall Best of Show male and additional 10 points.

One winner is chosen as the over all Best of Show. No points are given for this win, but an award may be given by the club. Please plan to hold your NKC bench show as follows: First take entries for EACH BREED and EACH AGE division Examples: Treeing Curs – You could have 6 entry sheets for Treeing Curs One set of three age divisions for the females And one set of three age divisions for the males Mt Feist – You could have 6 entry sheets for Mt Feist One set of three age division for the females And one set of three age divisions for the males - A dog must be NKC registered to be shown at an NKC sanctioned bench show. - Any dog that has been spayed or neutered can not be shown in the bench show. - Any Female dog in estrous (heat cycle) can not be show in the bench show. Each breed is to show on the bench separately – Let’s do the Mountain Curs as an example: 6 months to under 1 year old Female pups, then 1 to under 2 year old Junior Females, then 2 years and up Senior Females show. A winner is picked from each age category. They have received Best of Class plaque if you are giving them. Then go thru the 6 months to under 1 year old Male pups, 1 to under 2 years old Junior Males, and 2 years and up Males. A winner is picked from each age category and received a Best of Class plaque if you are giving them. Then you bring back the all the Females that won and show for Best Female of Breed. One female will have two plaques– Best of Class and Best of Breed-Female. Then you bring back the winning Male from each class to pick the Best Male of Breed and he could have two plaques. This is done for EACH BREED. Points awarded: Best of Age – 15 points Best of Breed – 10 points for a total of 25 points Best of Show – 10 points for a total of 35 points To become a Bench Champion a dog must earn 100 points and 1 Best Male or Female of Show.

The brother hood and family atmosphere has been strained at best. I have been asked to settle this problem with the treeing curs and try to please everyone, (good luck to me). In doing this, I have talked with several people on both sides of the debate including Melvin Hopper who registered the first treeing cur. The treeing cur standards which are printed in your yearbook are vague, and were left like this on purpose. This organization was founded for hunters who had great dogs but no where to hunt. Other purebred organizations would not allow you to hunt so the NKC helped, and the partnership was formed. Now it seems dogs with characteristics of pure bred dogs have been slowly creeping into our field trials as treeing curs. I am not blaming anyone, with our open ended standard it is easy to see how this could happen. I have had suggestions that a percentage approach might solve this problem. Example a treeing cur could be no more than 50% hound, 35% hound, 25% hound or no hound at all. I see two problems with this approach. First it would be impossible to enforce this, how would you ever be able to ascertain the exact % of hound in the cur. Second today hounds are the problem; in the future it could be a completely different breed of dog. The first treeing cur Melvin Hopper registered was a 50% Hound and 50% Airedale. I have thought about this for several weeks and the solution I have come up with is based upon the dogs over all general appearance. We all know the standard’s for hounds and most other purebred dogs. Therefore if a dog has a dominate appearance of a hound, or any other specific breed it will not be registered with the NKC as a treeing cur. Some breeders have tried to alter a hounds appearance by docking there tails, cropping ears etc. These man made changes will not make them treeing curs, so please don’t try. I will be appointing a three person panel to settle any disputes that will arise; however I reserve the right to make the final call if a consensus can not be reached. This policy will go into effective July 1st 2008 and will not affect any dog that is already registered with the NKC. New registrations for treeing curs after July 1st 2008 must be accompanied with 2 photos front & side view of the dog or a club with a licensed breed inspector will be allowed to inspect the dog and verify the registration. The NKC will reserve the right to nullify any new registration, if we find a dog with the characteristics of a hound or any other purebred dog has been allowed to be registered and hunt in a sanctioned event. This policy will also cover future litter of treeing curs being registered with the NKC, so make sure you are breeding correctly. Once again I am doing the best I can; if this does not stop the problem I will do what is necessary to keep the NCFBA growing and a family oriented organization. I know we are just one company you could field trail with and we do appreciate all of you. But I will not allow anyone to purposely cause problems no matter which side of the debate you fall on. This is an NKC policy, not an NCFBA. Life is to short, lets try to get past this and leave this organization for our children to enjoy.

No test rolling of the cart shall be allowed. 12.In the event of a tangle, at the judges’ discretion the judge will stop the clock and the handler must realign the dog and harness before the pull is resumed.

The clock would be stopped and the cart would then be freed of the barrier at the point of which it was stuck. The dog would be allowed to continue the pull with the remaining time left on the clock. Two tangles on the barrier on the same turn shall constitute the dog’s removal from the competition. 14.Tangles are called at the Chief Judge’s discretion. The judge shall call a tangle only if the dog or any of the equipment in use becomes entangled. 15.If any part of the harness or other equipment breaks, the handler shall have 60 seconds to repeat the pull after repairs.

This marked area shall house only the next dog to pull. 19.Load increments shall be determined by the Chief Judge and a simple majority of the handlers. The Chief Judge shall recommend the load increments to the handlers, considering the pulling conditions and the welfare of the dogs. 20.The dog pulling the most weight in its class is declared the winner. Each successive dog pulling a lower weight is placed second, third, etc. If two or more dogs pull the same weight the required distance and can pull no more weight the full distance, the winner is determined by the fastest time in the previous pull. 21.If the dog is competing for the best percentage pull, after all other dogs in the class have been eliminated from the competition; the dog may continue to pull heavier weights.

Examples of fouls are: - Touching the dog or cart in any way after time has been started. - Pushing or dropping the dog at start of pull. - Human aggression toward the dog - Elapse of time (60 seconds). - Examples of alibis: A. Tangling of traces or harnesses. B. Equipment malfunction. C. Outside interference that prevents the dog from completing his pull. Handler may point out a possible alibi, but the judge’s decision is final. Two alibis equal one foul. In the event of a foul or alibi, dog will be taken back to starting line and pull again. If a dog completes the pull off the track, it is still considered a pull. Weight divisions (males and females): 35 pounds and under 35 to 45 pounds 45 to 55 pounds 55 to 65 pounds 65 to 75 pounds 75 pounds and over Example: If the dog weighs exactly 35 pounds, the handler may choose to enter either the “35 pounds and under” class or the “35 to 45 pounds” class. Separate awards will be given to males and females for first, second, and third places in each weight division. The awards will be decided by most weight pulled per pound of body weight. The judge will certify the cart and weight. Owner of dog must supply his own harness. Harness must be a “standard” weight pull harness. Some clubs may have a harness to loan or information on how to obtain an appropriate harness. Pulling track will be roped off at least ten feet on each side of track to prevent spectators from crowding the track and distracting the dog. Points will be awarded the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners as follows: 1st place = 10 points 2nd place = 7 points 3rd place = 4 points **Trophy awards:** 54lbs & under male most weight pulled per pound of body weight (male) = 15 points 54lbs & under female most weight pulled per pound of body weight (male) = 15 Points 55lbs & over male most weight pulled per pound of body weight (male) = 15 points 55lbs & over female most weight pulled per pound of body weight (female) = 15 points Dog must pull cart 16 feet in 60 seconds. In the event of a tie for most weight pulled award, tie will be broken by body pound. If both dogs weigh the same, tie will be broken by time. The officiating judge shall conduct a handlers’ meeting at the beginning of the pull or before each class. Load increments: The judge shall recommend load increments based on the pulling conditions and the welfare of the dogs. The handlers shall vote on the load increments by which weight shall be increased. The decision shall be made by a simple majority of handlers present at the meeting. The judge shall decide tie votes. The load increment for each class shall remain the same throughout the class. Once your dog has begun the pull, you may pass no more than four times. Dogs will pull in turn, but no dog will be required to pull without a five-minute rest between pulls. Dogs will be called in this order: On the cart On deck Get ready No more than two handlers per dog on pull. No bait is allowed. Titles to be achieved: 100 points = Champion weight puller 200 points = Grand Champion weight puller 300 points = Super Grand Champion weight puller Only NKC-certified judges may judge the pulls.

Since so many people use the Internet for many things I thought we could use the message boards to post lost or stolen dogs and strays that we find to help find their homes. All you have to do is put up a description of the pet, its last whereabouts, city and state where he/she was last seen along with a picture of that pet. Someone or one of our members will be bound to see it if it’s lost or stolen. Even place a lost animal that you find on this message board. We will hopefully find your lost pet through this board. Please tell others about this message board also, in case they ever need us. --- ### [Paws bill](https://nationalkennelclub.com/paws-bill/) **Published:** February 15, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** There is currently a US Senate & House bill being backed by certain organizations claiming they want to better the dog (and other animals) breeding industry. The Senate Bill 1139/House Bill 2669 also known as the PAWS Bill (Pet Animal Welfare Statute), will not better the dog/animal industry instead it will impose USDA regulations on individuals who only breed dogs for the love of the animals and not for the profit. There are already rules in place to regulate the industry of dog breeding for profit. Commercial breeders already have to be licensed by the USDA and follow USDA regulations and guidelines. This bill wants to require breeders of dogs (and other animals) who breed and whelp 7 or more litters in a year or sell 25 or more animals commercially to be licensed by the USDA and follow USDA rules concerning breeding and selling animals for profit. If you own dogs, and then co-own other dogs with a partner, it could be very easy for you to have 7 litters in one year. You would then be required to register with the USDA, follow all USDA rules and regulations regarding breeding of animals and be subject to the USDA inspection at your home. The NKC is asking all of their dog owners to contact their local Senators and Congressmen asking them to vote no to PAWS bill. Below are the links to the home page of the US Senate and US House of Representatives please take the time to visit both sites to find your local representatives and ask them to simply vote no to either Senate Bill 1139 or House Bill 2669 . Thank you, Del Morgan President & CEO National Kennel Club --- ### [Hogdog Letter](https://nationalkennelclub.com/hogdog-letter/) **Published:** February 15, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** To All American Bulldog Members & Clubs, I have received 2 phone calls from 2 different Federal Agencies in Washington DC concerning the American Bulldogs and Hog Catches. The American Bulldogs are in danger of being labeled like the pit bull dogs were or they could be facing Federal regulations. As the owner of the National Kennel Club, we will not be a part of destroying this great breed. We do not force anyone to hold shows likewise we can not stop any club from holding hog catches; however, we can and will bar any person or organization from National Kennel Club events that hold’s, participates or attends these events. There will be no exceptions. The National Kennel Club has worked hard to help the American Bulldog members, but I will not allow this company to be labeled in a negative light for a few shows. The American Bulldog is at a major crossroads we must all do what is necessary to make sure to choose the right path in order to preserve this wonderful dog. Thank you, Del Morgan Del Morgan President & CEO National Kennel Club --- ### [NKC Good Canine Temperament Testing 1 & 2](https://nationalkennelclub.com/nkcgtt1/) **Published:** February 15, 2022 **Author:** National Kennel Club **Content:** NKC Good Canine Temperament Testing 1 & 2 The National Kennel Club has implemented a Canine Good Temperament Testing Program. The purpose of the NKCGTT1 & NKCGTT2 Program is to ensure that our favorite companion, the dog, can be a respected member of the community. To receive the NKCGTT1 certificate, dogs take the 10 section GTT1 Test, and to receive the NKCGTT2 certificate, dogs take the 7 section GTT2 Test. To be awarded either of the NKCGTT Awards, dogs must past every every section of the test, IF they fail any section they will fail the entire test and will have to retake the test at a later date. GTT tests will be given at sanctioned NKC events and the hosts of those events will advertise if testing will be available. To view the guidelines for the NKCGTT1 and for NKCGTT2. National Kennel Club Good Temperament Testing 1 Section 1: Accepting a friendly stranger This test demonstrates that the dog will allow a friendly stranger to approach it and speak to the handler in a natural, everyday situation. The evaluator walks up to the dog and handler and greets the handler in a friendly manner, ignoring the dog. The evaluator and handler shake hands and exchange pleasantries. The dog must show no sign of resentment or shyness, and must not break position or try to go to the evaluator. Section 2: Sitting politely for petting This test demonstrates that the dog will allow a friendly stranger to touch it while it is out with its handler. With the dog sitting at the handler’s side, to begin the exercise, the evaluator pets the dog on the head and body. The handler may talk to his or her dog throughout the exercise. The dog may stand in place as it is petted. The dog must not show shyness or resentment. Section 3: Appearance and grooming This practical test demonstrates that the dog will welcome being groomed and examined and will permit someone, such as a veterinarian, groomed or friend of the owner, to do so. It also demonstrates the owner’s care, concern and sense of responsibility. The evaluator inspects the dog to determine if it is clean and groomed. The dog must appear to be in healthy condition (i.e., proper weight, clean, healthy and alert). The handler should supply the comb or brush commonly used on the dog. The evaluator then softly combs or brushes the dog, and in a natural manner, lightly examines the ears and gently picks up each front foot. It is not necessary for the dog to hold a specific position during the examination, and the handler may talk to the dog, praise it and give encouragement throughout. Section 4: Out for a walk (walking on a loose lead) This test demonstrates that the handler is in control of the dog. The dog may be on either side of the handler. The dog’s position should leave no doubt that the dog is attentive to the handler and is responding to the handler’s movements and changes of direction. The dog need not be perfectly aligned with the handler and need not sit when the handler stops. The evaluator may use a pre-plotted course or may direct the handler/dog team by issuing instructions or commands. In either case, there should be a right turn, left turn, and an about turn with at least one stop in between and another at the end. The handler may talk to the dog along the way, praise the dog, or give commands in a normal tone of voice. The handler may sit the dog at the halts if desired. Section 5: Walking through a crowd This test demonstrates that the dog can move about politely in pedestrian traffic and is under control in public places. The dog and handler walk around and pass close to several people (at least three). The dog may show some interest in the strangers but should continue to walk with the handler, without evidence of over-exuberance, shyness or resentment. The handler may talk to the dog and encourage or praise the dog throughout the test. The dog should not jump on people in the crowd or strain on the leash. Section 6: Sit and down on command – staying in place This test demonstrates that the dog has training, will respond to the handler’s commands to sit and down and will remain in the place commanded by the handler (sit or down position, whichever the handler prefers). Prior to this test, the dog’s leash is replaced with a line 20 feet long. The handler may take a reasonable amount of time and use more than one command to get the dog to sit and then down. The evaluator must determine if the dog has responded to the handler’s commands. The handler may not force the dog into position but may touch the dog to offer gentle guidance. When instructed by the evaluator, the handler tells the dog to stay and walks forward the length of the line, turns and returns to the dog at a natural pace. The dog must remain in the place in which it was left (it may change position) until the evaluator instructs the handler to release the dog. The dog may be released from the front or the side. Section 7: Coming when called This test demonstrates that the dog will come when called by the handler. The handler will walk 10 feet from the dog, turn to face the dog, and call the dog. The handler may use encouragement to get the dog to come. Handlers may choose to tell dogs to “stay” or “wait” or they may simply walk away, giving no instructions to the dog. Section 8: Reaction to another dog This test demonstrates that the dog can behave politely around other dogs. Two handlers and their dogs approach each other from a distance of 20 to 30 feet, stop, shake hands and exchange pleasantries, and continue on for about 10 feet. The dogs should show no more than casual interest in each other. Neither dog should go to the other dog or its handler. Section 9: Reaction to distraction This test demonstrates that the dog is confident at all times when faced with common distracting situations. The evaluator will select and present two distractions. Examples of distractions include dropping a chair, rolling a crate dolly past the dog, having a jogger run in front of the dog, or dropping a crutch or cane. The dog may express natural interest and curiosity and/or may appear slightly startled but should not panic, try to run away, show aggressiveness, or bark. The handler may talk to the dog and encourage or praise it throughout the exercise. Section 10: Supervised separation This test demonstrates that a dog can be left with a trusted person, if necessary, and will maintain training and good manners. Evaluators are encouraged to say something like, “Would you like me to watch your dog?” and then take hold of the dog’s leash. The owner will go out of sight for three minutes. The dog does not have to stay in position but should not continually bark, whine, or pace unnecessarily, or show anything stronger than mild agitation or nervousness. Equipment All tests must be performed on leash. Dogs should wear well-fitting buckle or slip collars made of leather, fabric, or chain. Special training collars such as pinch collars, head halters, etc. are not permitted in the GTT test. We recognize that special training collars may be very useful tools for beginning dog trainers, however, we feel that dogs are ready to take the GTT test at the point at which they are transitioned to regular collars. The evaluator supplies a 20-foot lead for the test. The owner/handler should bring written proof of rabies vaccines and the dog’s brush or comb to the test. Encouragement Owners/handlers may use praise and encouragement throughout the test. The owner may pet the dog between exercises. Food and treats are not permitted during testing, nor is the use of toys, squeaky toys, etc. to get the dog to do something. We recognize that food and toys may provide valuable reinforcement or encouragement during the training process but these items should not be used during the test. Failures – Dismissals Any dog that does not pass any one of the above 10 Sections or eliminates during testing will be marked as failed. The only exception to this rule is that elimination is allowable in Section 10, but only when Section 10 is held outdoors. Any dog that growls, snaps, bites, attacks, or attempts to attack a person or another dog is not a good citizen and must be dismissed from the test. Back to top. National Kennel Club Good Temperament Testing 2 The NKC – GTT 2 is designed to evaluate individual canines in order to determine whether that dog shows the proper characteristics of working canine temperament. Because of breed-specific dog legislation and negative publicity associated with many breeds of dogs, temperament testing has assumed an important role for today’s dog owner. The NKC GTT 2 provides breeders a means for evaluating temperament and gives pet owners insight into their dog’s behavior. It can have an impact on breeding programs and in educating owners about their dog’s behavioral strengths and weaknesses as well as providing a positive influence on dog legislation. The NKC – GTT 2 focuses on and measures different aspects of temperament such as stability, shyness, aggressiveness, and friendliness as well as the dog’s instinct for protectiveness towards its handler and/or self-preservation in the face of a threat. The test is designed for the betterment of all breeds of dogs and takes into consideration each breed’s inherent tendencies. The test simulates a casual walk through the park or neighborhood where everyday life situations are encountered. During this walk, the dog experiences visual, auditory and tactile stimuli. Neutral, friendly and threatening situations are encountered, calling into play the dog’s ability to distinguish between non-threatening situations and those calling for watchful and protective reactions. The decoy/trainer can only determine the temperament of any individual dog on the day the test is given and is not certifying future temperament potential (due to environmental and/or training factors). The dog must be at least 12 months of age to be evaluated. This evaluation is done with the dog on a fur-saver collar. Corrections are not to be given during this evaluation. Corrections will result in the failure of the dog. - This degree is earned on a pass/fail basis and is judged on the following factors: - The ability of the dog to distinguish threatening situations from non-threatening situations - The willingness of the dog to trust their owner’s judgment. - The willingness of the dog to protect himself and his owner. - The confidence level of the dog in unusual situations. - The ability of the dog to interact with the world in a safe and stable manner. - If a dog fails any part of the 7 Section Test, it will fail the entire test.
