I notice there are female gsd with a V rating, but no sch title.
A couple of questions:
1. which is more important, a schutzhund title or a V-rating
2. how does a dog aquire a V rating at a show if it is not titled?
My own opinion is that a schuthund title is more important to me.
thank you

In order to compete in working class and get a V-rating, you need a title.

Apparantly you can also obtain a 'V' in show,
without any working titles from this organization

I'm still a little perplexed how a dog doesn't have
to leave American soil to become an
'International Champion'

If it's a V rating from SV, UScA or WDA, the dog has a title and also KKL.

Rik, KKL is not required if dog is younger than 3 1/2 years old.

The judges are from other countries

thanks seby, I was already breeding the dog.

if the club that's holding the show/trial has invited clubs from other countires and some of these dogs attend the show/trial than its considered international competition.

the venue must be one that recognises international titles...

by workingdogz on 14 May 2012 - 22:05

So when we achieve our titles, koers and
show ratings, if they are from German etc
judges, should we all start to claim the
'International' status too?

by SitasMom on 14 May 2012 - 23:05

SV doesn't acknowledge international titles. The organization holding the show/trial must offer international titles.
