Classes
There are 3 main class types.
​Hoopers (H) – courses designed using hoops only. Points gained in Hoopers (H) classes count for progression in this class only.
​
Parkour (P) – courses designed by using a combination of hoops, barrels, tunnels, and gates. Points gained in Parkour (P) classes count for progression in this class only.
​
Tungo (TG) – courses designed by using mainly barrels and tunnels. Points gained in Tungo (T) classes count for progression in this class only.
​
​The judge will decide whether to use DHBs or CLs for a course in any class.
​
NEW CHC CHALLENGE CLASS (Ch)
A distance handling only class, with one distance challenge.
Running with your dog is not permitted for the CHC Challenge Class
Novice and Intermediate use the same course with the required distance challenge for each level.
Advanced and Proficient use the same course with the required distance challenge for each level.
​
Points: Maximum bonus points (20 for DHB/DHA or 15 for CL) minus deductions for faults = handler’s final score. Note: Handler must remain in the handling area. Stepping out of the handler area results in elimination and no score for the run
​
Competitors attend a briefing and have time to walk the course before each class begins (5 to 7 minutes).
