IOEBA Conformation Titles Requirements & Information

                              A.            Requirements for IOEBA Champion title.
Championship points are awarded in accordance with the Point Schedule.

To earn a IOEBA Champion title, a dog must:

                                                      1.            Earn a minimum of 100 championship points,

                                                      2.            Earn points under at least two different IOEBA-licensed Judges, 

                                                      3.            Win one Best Male/Female (or higher) class with competition.

 

                              B.            Competition for the Champion title. Competition is defined as more than one male/female entered and shown in any one of the regular classes (Puppy, Junior, Senior or Veteran classes).
If a judge withholds a first-place ribbon and awards a dog a second, third or fourth place ribbon in a class of one, this dog will count as having competed and shall count as competition. If a judge withholds all awards from the dog, then it shall not count as competition. Dogs that are excused or disqualified do not count as competition. A dog that is judged in a class, but whose entry is subsequently determined to be invalid, shall count as competition.

                                                      1.            Earning a competition win by going Best Male/Female. If only one male/female dog is entered in the regular classes, that dog may earn championship points, but such wins do not count as wins with competition. However, if a class winner is selected as Best Male/Female, that counts as a win with competition.

                                                      2.            Earning a competition win by going Best of Breed. A Best Male/Best Female who has no competition of the same or opposite sex in the regular classes may still earn a win with competition by defeating a Champion or Grand Champion of either sex for Best of Breed.

                                                      3.            Earning a competition win by winning Best in Multi-Breed Show or Best in Show. At shows where Best in Multi-Breed Show or Best in Show competition is offered, a Best Male/Best Female with no competition in its breed may still earn a win with competition by winning Best in Multi-breed Show or Best in Show.

                              C.            Requirements for Grand Champion title. To earn a IOEBA Grand Champion title, a dog must:

                                                      1.            Win the Champion class at least three times with competition, and

                                                      2.            Win the Champion class under at least two different IOEBA-licensed Judges.

                              D.            Competition for the Grand Champion title. Competition is defined as at least three dogs correctly entered and shown in the Champion class.
