The Agenda for the Kennel Club Agility Liaison Council meeting on the 14th January 2010

 

Who looks at the Agenda for the Kennel Club Agility Liaison Council Meeting!
Trouble is it does effect us all so I thought I would let you have some information about what they are going to discuss.
Don't forget to look at the item on 'Control of Dogs'!

By the way, these are my thoughts, not necessarily the clubs and will not include everything so if you want to read the agenda, have a look. More

The first thing they are going to do is elect the Chairman and Vice Chairman for the term of the Council. Not sure who is on the Committee as new members have been elected from January 2010. Mike Hallam and Pauline Baltes remain or representative. So, we shall see.

The Judges Working Party is proposing that the following should mean a elimination -
Carrying an item in had once a dog is under test
Dogs wearing incorrect style of collar
Double handling (someone helping from the side of the ring etc)
Handler or dog disturbing and obstacle in shuch a way that it can no longer be negotiated correctly

The also suggest that should a re-run be required - andy results and/or faults gained in previous round must be discounted.
Interesting, most of thejudges at our shows have run the new round should be for time only.
What do you think?
