CHAPTER XV COURSING ABILITY TEST REGULATIONS PURPOSE. The purpose of the AKC Coursing Ability Test is to provide all dogs and their owners an enjoyable, healthy activity in which they can participate. Based on the sport of lure coursing, Coursing Ability Tests will serve as an introduction to the sport for all eligible dog owners. Dogs run singularly and are required to complete their course with enthusiasm and without interruption within a maximum amount of time. The Coursing Ability Test is a pass–fail event.All applicable administrative regulations governing Lure Coursing Tests shall apply to Coursing Ability Tests unless specifically addressed in this chapter. ELIGIBILITY TO ENTER. Coursing Ability Tests are open to all dogs at least 12 months of age that are individually registered with the AKC, recorded in the Foundation Stock Service (FSS) program, individually registered with a foreign or domestic registry organization whose pedigrees are acceptable for AKC registration, dogs granted a Purebred Alternative Listing (PAL) number, dogs with AKC Limited or Conditional Registration, or dogs enrolled in the AKC Canine Partners program. Dogs with breed disqualifications and monorchid/cryptorchid dogs are eligible to participate. Females in season may not enter. A dog may enter only once per event. (An event is defined by an event number.) Coursing Ability Test will not possess the agility of a sight hound and this must be a consideration in the design of a course DISTANCE AND MAXIMUM TIME. Dogs run singularly. 300 Yard Course. This distance is for dogs shorter than 12 inches at the withers and/or brachycephalic (“flat-faced”) dogs. A dog must complete this course in less than 1½ minutes. 600 Yard Course. This distance is used for all dogs that do not run the 300 yard course. A dog must complete this course in less than 2 minutes. If there is a question which course a dog should run, the judge will decide. The premium should state the distance for each course and the eligibility of dogs for each course. COLLAR/PARAPHERNALIA. Dogs may wear any collar except a choker collar, a collar with prongs or an electronic training collar. The collar should be snug to minimize the chances of getting hung up on something during the run. Owners should be aware that there is a chance that tags hanging from the collar could become entangled on something during the run. Owners may use clips or rubber bands to hold the dog’s hair. The owner assumes responsibility for the safety of the dog with regard to the dog’s collar and paraphernalia on the dog. PASSING PERFORMANCE. The Coursing Ability Test is a pass–fail event.
