What are the different titling activities available through the MBDCA?
The MBDCA provides a set of regulations for competition that meet the unique needs of mixed breeds while still fitting in at fun matches and workshops. Titles can be earned in: • Competition Obedience: Demonstrates the dog’s ability to follow specified routines in the obedience ring. The regulations are similar to the AKC’s. • Rally: Demonstrates the dog’s ability to work as a team with the handler to complete a course of 10 to 20 designated stations designed by a rally judge. The regulations are similar to the AKC’s. • Conformation: Demonstrates the dog’s general soundness and balance as well as excellent temperment and manners. Before they can become a Mixed Breed Champion, dogs must have achieved a certain level of titling in either Competition Obedience or Rally. • Tracking: Tests the dog’s ability to follow a track laid by a person under a variety of conditions on moderate terrain and to find articles dropped by that person along the track. The regulations are similar to the AKC’s
