Obedience Trial Champions

The Obedience Trial Champion

The Obedience Trial Championship is probably one of the most difficult Titles to achieve in the world of Dog Showing. To achieve an OTCH, the dog and handler must first complete his UD degree. Then he must earn 100 points to become and Obedience Trial Champion. These points are earned by placing first or second in Utility B or Open B, with three first places required in the different classes. When competing for an OTCH, you must also compete against the current champions – in other words, to become an OTCH, you have to beat the champions to win.

In 1996, there were 103,776 obedience trial entries, and of these, only eight one hundredths (.08) percent, or one out of 1300 entries, received the OTCH. It’s a pretty exclusive club! In breed there was one champion for every 75 entries.
