·       In order to compete in any ASDR Performance event, dogs must be registered with ASDR and must be at least 6 months or older to compete.

·       Depending on show size one or two trials may be offered at each show, this will be determined at least a week before the show.

·       If more than one trial is offered the highest of the two scores will count towards top ten standings for that show. Competitors must declare if they are entering both trials before the first trail starts. Once the first trial has started, no late entries will be accepted.

·       All dog set ups must be at least 15 feet from any course. All dogs must be crated or out of eyesight during all runs, except for the dog running and the dog that is up next. Show official will determine where “out of eyesight” is.
