OESCA agility trial '07 - jump height cards
You need two measurements at age two or above by an AKC agility rep OR a VMO, unless you dog measures over 22" at the withers - which many OES do. In the latter case, your dog's regular jump height will be 24" (20" in Preferred) and you only need to one measurement. I've excerpted info on jump height cards from the AKC Regulations for Agility Trials (which can be found at www.akc.org) She will also measure unentered dogs as time allows. That means non-entered agility dogs; not just because we want to know how tall Fluffy is 
Section 4. Jump Height Card. All dogs competing in agility must present a valid official Jump Height Card. For dogs two years and older, owners/handlers must present a permanent height card at check-in or be measured prior to competing. At 2 years of age two measurements are required and a 3rd measurement will be used as a jump height tie breaker if necessary. The handler will retain the yellow form until the 2nd measurement is taken. No permanent height card will be issued until the 2nd measurement is officially recorded, with the exception of dogs measuring over 22 inches whose owner may request the issuance of a permanent height card with one measurement. For dogs under two years of age, the owner/handler must present a temporary height card form at check-in or be measured prior to competing. A card will not be issued until the dog’s permanent measurement is recorded. Dogs with a single measurement above 22 inches before 2 years of age may be issued a permanent height card at the owner’s request. Dogs that do not have a Jump Height Card, will be measured by a judge of record for that trial and will only be effective for that set of trials, excluding the dogs jumping in the 24-inch or 26-inch height division. If an AKC Field Representative or a Volunteer Measuring Official (VMO) is present, all dogs must be measured for a Jump Height Card regardless of the jump height entered. |

Oh for heaven's sake, Voluntary Measuring Official I meant to say. Off to stock up on caffeine... KB  |
