Versatility
Dachshunds Can Do It All!
The DCA Versatility Program was created to recognize Dachshunds who prove their abilities across various AKC sanctioned events:
Conformation
Field Trials
Earthdog
Obedience/Rally Obedience
Tracking
Agility
Scentwork
Requirements Effective January 2020
A total of 18 VC points.
VC points must be obtained from Bench Group and at least three (3) of the other six (6) groups.
Points may not be accumulated in any one group (i.e. a U.D. entitles a dog to points; his CDX and CD cannot be added).
A Triple Champion (Bench Champion, plus Field Champion, plus either Obedience Champion or Tracking Champion or Agility Champion MACH/PACH) qualifies a dog for the Versatility Certificate.
NOTE: Except for AWTA Certificate of Gameness earned prior to October 1995, only American Kennel Club events/titles can earn VC points.
Application Process
When the requisite number of VC points have been accumulated, please email the last AKC certificate showing all the titles earned to the committee chair: DCAVersatility@yahoo.com
