In the Dogtrials Agility Competitions, you can only be in the Height Class which equals the official (real) height of your dog, not which height class you enter at an Agility Trial. If your dog has to be remeasured during the year, we will then add your dog to the new Height Class in the Dogtrial's Competition, manually. This must be notified to judy@showdogs.com.au.

           authority/agreement with the co-owner/s to enter the dog in this competition.
