The four classes are divided by age, and are further broken down into the experience of the Junior handler. They are, in order: Novice Junior, Novice Senior, Novice Intermediate and Open Intermediate Open Junior, and Open Senior.

2. How many wins, with competition present, must a Junior handler get in order to progress to the Open class?

Once a Novice Junior handler gets his or her three first places with competition present, he or she can now move into his or her respective Open class!

Answer: The Jr doesn't own or co-own the dog, and isn't related to the owners

Junior handlers must own or co-own the day they wish to show in Juniors, or it must be owned by an immediate family or household member.

Answer: BJH

BJH, or Best Junior Handler, is the award that all 4 class winners compete for at the end of all the classes.

Answer: 10

If a Junior handler wins 10 Open classes in a year with competition present each time they win, they can go to Westminster the following year!

6. Which of the following is NOT a dog show class at the AKC?

Answer: Foreign

The dog show classes are: Puppy (6-9 months) (9-12 months), 12 to 18 Months, Novice, American-Bred, Bred-By Exhibitor, and Open.

7. Are dog show classes broken down into male and female divisions on the Breed Level for dogs still gaining points?

Answer: Yes

Male and female dogs compete for points within their own gender, but once they are champions, they are entered together.

8. What do you call shows designated for an individual breed or a group?

Answer: Specialty

Specialties are held for dogs of a specific breed or group, and for the people who own, breed, and show them to get together and compare experiences and knowledge.

9. What color is the Best Of Breed or Variety Ribbon?

Answer: Gold and Purple

Breed winners continue on to compete in their respective Group for higher honors.

10. What is the most recent AKC Group?

Answer: Herding

I believe it was 1983 when the AKC decided that the Working Group was too large, so they made a separate group, the Herding Group.
