I always answer emails within 24 hours. If you haven’t received a reply, please re-send and add my address to your address book. This keeps your spam software from blocking my emails.
IMPORTANT. Please check your dog’s NADAC registration number on your trial confirmation as soon as you receive it; also, please check the copy of the results posted at the trial. You should report any errors to the Trial Secretary immediately.
NADAC no longer hand checks for discrepancies the records we send them at the end of the trial. Instead, they post the trial results to the files section of the list within two weeks after receiving them from us. The trial results will remain on the list for at least thirty (30) days. Please accept the responsibility to review those results, and check that your registration number and qualifying points, as reported by the club, are correct. You can join the NADAC Agility list and set your settings to “no mail”. You’ll be able to view trial results and find discrepancies (if any) without receiving list mail. Contact NADAC only if your registration number or qualifying results are shown incorrectly on the list. Otherwise, you do not need to do anything.
Levels. Points earned at a higher level of a class, prior to the completion of the lower level title, will no longer be banked by NADAC for future use. As of June 1, 2006 if a dog earns points in a level of a class that they are not eligible to title in, those points will not be added to the dog's records.
