Can Your Dog Fetch?

Come out and earn one or more AKC Fetch titles at the Maryland Sporting Dog Association Spring event. The 2 judges will be offering four concurrent tests each day, Saturday and Sunday. You can earn a Fetch title by passing each level once under each of the two judges. Titles must be earned in order, but if you enter all 8 tests, you could earn all four AKC Fetch titles in one weekend! We are very flexible as to when you run so we can work around your entries in other events.

Learn about AKC Fetch at https://www.akc.org/fetch/.

Pre-entries will close on Saturday, Feb. 21 at 8pm (save money by pre-entering). Day of entries will be taken starting Feb. 21 at 8:01pm and throughout the event if space remains. Premium and online entries can be found at https://eagerdog.com/e/2lf29b.
