NADAC records trial results as they are submitted by the host clubs/groups. The individual trial results submitted by the club are uploaded to the within two weeks after the NADAC office receives them from the club. Please accept the responsibility to review those results, and check that your registration number and qualifying points, as reported by the club, are correct. You can join the Forum by going to and submitting your request. If you find an error in the reporting of your dog’s qualifying points or registration number, please contact the host club. The host club is responsible for correcting any errors and informing NADAC.

Levels: Points earned at a higher level of a class, prior to the completion of the lower level title, will not be recorded by NADAC for future use. If a dog earns points in a level of a class that they are not eligible to title in, those points will not be added to the dog's records.

ENTRY FORMS: Our Word entry form allows you to type in your information. Please use this option as it makes it so much easier to read entry information.

NON-JUMPING CLASSES – VETERAN OR DISABLED HANDLER: Handlers who are 60 years or older, or who have a disability that restricts mobility, may choose to enter the non-jumping classes as a Veteran Handler and receive 10% more standard course time. This option is for Veteran/Disabled handlers in the non-jumping classes only. The Veteran/Disabled Handler division is designed for handlers who, due to age or impairment, are mobility limited and need extra time to guide their canine partners through an agility course.

When entering as a Veteran/Disabled Handler, you must enter all dogs in all classes for the entire trial in this Division and must jump 4” lower than your Proficient, Standard Division jump height require you to. In the non-jumping classes, dogs will be scored and placed with their Standard Division jump height.

The management will not be responsible for the loss or damage to any dog exhibited, or for the possessions of any exhibitor whether the result was by accident or any other cause. It is distinctly understood that every dog at this event is in the care and custody and control of his owner or handler during the entire time the dog is on the show premises. Any exhibitor whose dogs and/or children create unnecessary disturbances or repeatedly engage in unsafe or disruptive behavior may, at the discretion of the Trial Committee, be asked to leave the show site. In such case, no refund of fees paid will be made.

The safety of the dogs is our primary concern. Exhibitors, through submission of entry, acknowledge that they are knowledgeable of NADAC rules and regulations, and agree to abide by all rules in effect at the time of this trial, and that their dogs are familiar with and able to perform the obstacles safely.

This trial is open to all healthy, trained dogs over 18 months of age, including purebred and mixed breed dogs. Bitches in heat, lame or blind dogs are ineligible for entry, as is any dog with a deformity that may cause a judge to not be able to reasonably assess the dog’s ability to function and perform agility obstacles safely, and in a manner that is in the best interest, health and welfare of the dog. Any dog that demonstrates aggression towards any person or any dog, whether inside the ring or outside the ring, must be excused from the agility trial. Any dog that the judge feels is not in enough control to perform all obstacles in a safe manner will be excused from the agility trial. Entry fees will not be refunded in the event that a dog is absent, disqualified, excused, or barred from completion by action of the Judge or Trial Committee.
