Event Questions
Can Neuters compete in other classes in Conformation?
As per DQ rules, Neuter Dogs and Bitches may also enter:
- any sweepstakes classes
- any property classes
- Sire/Dam and Progeny classes (either as the sire/dam or the progeny)
- The Judy Voss Memorial Breeders Team Challenge
How to enter Sire/Dam and Progeny and Breeders Team?
1) When you enter Sire and Progeny or Dam and Progeny, you ONLY need to enter:
- the Sire/Dam's name (if you enter all of the progeny then Show Manager defaults to charging you for all of them)
2) When you enter the Judy Vos Memorial Breeders' Team Challenge, you ONLY need to enter one dog/bitch from your Prefix. This will register as the Breeders' Team name. (if you enter all of the dogs/bitches then Show Manager defaults to charging you for all of them)
The dog/bitch with your prefix that you enter DOES NOT have to be one of the dogs/bitches in your Breeders' Team. You can change the composition of your 4 exhibits right up until you enter the ring, this allows you the flexibility to work around coat drops etc.
