Who controls the classification of open, closed or semi-closed?
The parent club designates which tests will be required for a CHIC number, the owner decides if the information is to be made public. If the owner refuses, that dog does not get a number. CHIC requires that information on every dog entered in the database for that breed has completed all tests and that the results are made public, but it is not required that they have cleared all tests. This is an Open Registration.
