to the start of each Stake with a short discussion from
the Judges. The WDX will run at completion of the WD.
**Note--
The WD will run first. Land
and water will run simultaneous. Each dog will
run the Land, if they pass they will take their signed
paper and go immediately to the water area. There are 4
judges for both the WD and WDX. Two judges will be
setup on land and two others at the water as the same
time. There will be a large entry and we need to
complete all three stakes in one day. The WDQ will run
simultaneous with the WD, will have 2 judges and will
start with the land marks. The WDX will run at
completion of the WD.
Please have your dogs aired and ready to go before it's
your turn to be called to the holding blind. All dogs
must be kept on lead when not running and must be kept
back by the vehicles where they cannot see any of the
tests being run.

WD/X/Q Rules:
All ACC
members should have received a copy of the Rules and Guidelines after the
updates of 2008 or with their new membership. You can download additional copies
below or from the
ACC Website. Please read through these
rules before the day of
the test. The judges will go over the basic rules with
everyone quickly before the start of the stake and you can ask a few questions
then if needed. Email or call
Jane Pappler
609-859-3570 ahead of time if you need help
understanding any of the procedures or have questions regarding the
entry form. Please take time
to read through the requirements and procedures in advance of the

fail due to handler error. One important rule to remember is you
cannot send your dog until you hear the Judge call your
number....
