1) Proof of certification shall include:
• The name and signature of the Race Secretary who qualified the dog,
• The name of the club that the Race Secretary represents,
• The date of certification,
• A statement that the dog ran the entire track cleanly with another dog of the same breed or one
with a similar racing style. We will be using starting boxes, so starting boxes must be used for
the qualifying runs.
2) Proof of certification can be presented either
• With the entry form or at check in,
• By email attachment to the Race Secretary (Audrey Hsia audrey.hsia@gmail.com).
3) If you are unable to find a meet for certification prior to BOOFEST, the SWC will attempt to
certify any remaining dogs before the meet begins.
In order to be eligible to certify the day of the meet
• Your dog MUST already be entered. We will refund your fee if the dog fails to pass
certification.
• You must provide another qualified dog of similar speed to run with the dog being certified.
• Only one FTE may run for certification at a time.
4) If your dog has successfully run in oval racing (has a complete meet recorded in the GG), that
will be considered a certification for straight racing. A lure coursing certification is not
sufficient for racing.
If you have any questions, please e-mail Audrey Hsia audrey.hsia@gmail.com
