one.eyed.dog Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 What type of shows does a dog need to enter and what type of wins does it need to get to qualify for Crufts. Ellie x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisam13 Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 In the Uk you need a 1st 2nd or 3rd placing at a Championship show. Its certain Crufts qualifying classes, such as Open dog/bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzeanna Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 (edited) First second and third in all classes at a Champ show, from minor puppy onward. Any dogs who won at Crufts the previous year, and dogs with a stud book number. Edited March 13, 2008 by suzeanna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudi Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Think you can also enter the Good Citizens classes just by having passed one of the stages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one.eyed.dog Posted March 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 How many do you need to win? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanrossscot Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 How many do you need to win? How do you mean? I think it's just the one win necessary at the qualifying classes. For Obedience - Championship Bitch & Dog you have to win one Ticket C class at a show (if you win either 2 or 3 Ticket C's under different judges in a year the dog adds Ob Ch to their kennel name). In obedience we also have regional competitions and entries to tht are decided by the team managers from each region (usually based on performance through the year) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

one.eyed.dog Posted March 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 As far as I know we won a3rd at a qualifier last year but, it was open gundog. Would I have to win in GWP only classes? I am thinking of doing it just to see if she can qualify. I would not actually take her to Crufts if she qualified. A/ because she would hate it and B/ she is spayed so they would not let her enter. She is rescue so it's a bit of devilment on my part. TBH I don't think she stands a chance but, you never know. Here she is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucyandmeg Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Do you have her pedigree papers then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingrid Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Also as she is a rescue has she been spayed ? You would need to inform the KC if so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzycharm Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 A friend of mine took her young belgian shepherd dog to crufts. Lovely Bay got a 2nd and two 3rd's, and he has automatically qualified for Crufts next year. Don't know how it works, but obviously you don't need to win?????

Happylittlegreensquirrel Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 sorry to be really dim but why would the KC need to know if a bitch was spayed ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzycharm Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 All dogs entered to show at Crufts must be entire (stupid if you ask me). A castrated male can only enter if you have word from the vet that the dog needed them removed because it was absolutely necessary, and then you have to get a certificate from the KC. Not too sure that they would know if a bitch was spayed if you didn't tell them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one.eyed.dog Posted March 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Yes I have all the papers and yes she is spayed. I did not change the KC papers in to my name, only the important stuff like the micro chip and the rescue. I keep in touch with Lottie's last owner so would not be bothered if I had to say she was owned by her. She would be pleased as punch if she qualified. She comes on the forum to keep tabs on what Lottie is up to as she still misses her and is happy I send her photo's and keep her up to date with training etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
