UKC SHOW GUIDE
A WALKTHROUGH TO UKC AND AKC CONFORMATION SHOWS
A BREAKDOWN
At SKA, you'll find the the United Kennel Club (UKC) and American Kennel Club (AKC) have been both implemented into one major club. The majority of it is based off of UKC, however we have supplemented certain elements, events, and titles from AKC in order to bring a more fully realized, varietal amount of participation options.
You will notice the U-AKC is both Qualification (Qs) and Point based. This means that earning your titles will be most heavily based on participating often enough, with the ability to climb the title ladder if your dog scores well. For our higher tiered titles, placements will at times be required.
GENERAL PROCEDURES
• Dog must clearly be from the Sims 4, although moderate and occasionally heavy edits are allowed for breeds that require it.• Dogs entered must either have a "Discord ✓" or SKA ID#.
• Judges will not score dogs they have made or currently own.
• All dogs entered must have an UKC or AKC standard to participate. Some exceptions may apply.
• Dogs will be scored and compete for the following awards: Best of Breed, Best of Opposite, Select Dog, Select Bitch, Winners Dog, Winners Bitch, Best in Group, and Best in Show.
• It should be noted that not all awards will net additional points toward their Championship. It is simply a way to annotate they've received a placement for other titling purposes and to otherwise celebrate them.
CLASS OPTIONS
Classes listed here are available at every U-AKC show offered and should be used as a guideline when determining what to enter your dog in. Some dogs may be eligible for more than one class; it is then your choice which to enter them in.• Puppy: Open to dogs 6-15 months.
