Every Border Collie owner has the right to choose to train his/her dog in some venue. We are offering a Fun Match for dogs with a performance title to be judged on conformation using the BCSA Breed Standard. To compete in the regular classes, you must not have completed their breed championship (* see below).  There will be a Best in Match and a Best of Opposite Sex chosen.

There are no age divisions, just dog and bitch classes in each of the following categories:
Agility TitledHerding Titled (HT or higher)Obedience Titled Tracking Titled Multi Performance Titled

The dog and bitch winner of each class will return to the ring to compete for "Best Performance Titled Border Collie" and "Best Performance Opposite Sex Border Collie".

* If you have completed their breed championship and also have Performance title(s), you may compete in the "Best of Performance Titled Champions" class. Lowest herding title for entering is HT. There will be no direct competition between regular Performance Titled classes and this class. A "Best Performance Titled Champion" will be chosen but no Opposite Sex. This class will be judged after the Performance Best of Breed.
