If time permits, and at the discretion of the judge, for competitors who have earned their “A” level at this trial, we may be able to offer “B” level testing. We would ask that competitors not sign up for this at their initial registration. 

Competitors may trial in more than one test (such as tracking AND rubble), however you must complete separate obedience / agility portions for each test and we will be scheduling the different disciplines on different days.
